Thanks  dattrike, I have asked for a quote,

Regards Colin.

Thanks Joe,

i did think it would be unlikely to achieve the results they quoted, I will need to find a Rolling Road in Cornwall

that does re Mapping,

Hi, has anyone fitted an OBD2 Chip system into their S Type? And, does it really work to increase Power and fuel efficiency.

Thanks Simon that will save me a few pounds,

Colin 

Having just ordered my new 18" alloys and tyres I would like to ask if it would still be OK to use my old  17" Spare wheel,

obviously just to get me to a garage, or, do I need to buy an 18" Spare.

many thanks,

Colin M.

Would it be alright to fit 18" alloys to my S Type 3.0 S 2004, I am Looking at R342S BBS Monaco alloy Wheels, I presently have 17" wheels 

fitted. And could I get a great deal on 4 New tyres for same from someone in the Club.

many thanks for your previous helps I have received.

Hi Philip, I would happily join you in a meeting of like minded souls, if it's organised put me and my Old Jag down.

Regards Colin

OK,

I have fixed the problem, I reset the memory of Seat Position with the ignition key OUT! How it had lost it's Memory I am not sure.

Regards again to ALL Colin.

Returned to car after 3 Days in Station Car Park only to find that the Drivers Seat etc. Did not automatically adjust to my settings, can anyone advise, Regards and Happy Christmas Colin

Are there any Jaguar owners/lovers who would be interested in a 'Meet-Up' and a run!

I understand that elsewhere in the Country these do Happen but I can find No Mention of them Down Here in the Beautiful South West.

Regards Colin

Thanks again Peter, hope you are keeping well, I will try to get onto the Lounge and see what I get,

Take Care Colin

Thank you for the response, I would be happy to get together one Sunday, a ride out with Lunch somewhere, I saw a link to a Saltash group but I thought I was outside their Catchment area, but if you are Plymouth we could join the Saltash meetings if they still exist.

I have had a few teething problems with my S Type, but the pleasure in driving it, out ways the problems.

Regards to you Colin

Hi is there anyone out There! All the posts are Three Years old, I live near St.Austell and drive an 11 year old S.Type 3Ltr SE, and wondered if anyone in Cornwall would be interested in the odd Friendly Meeting and Drive.

I hear that this sort of thing goes on all over the Country but as yet I haven't found anything in Cornwall.

Regards to all you Jaguar Owners and Jaguar Lovers.

Colin

Thanks Frank I will look into that,

Regards Colin

This is a problem which I have had before, which at the time was corrected using the advice given on this Site, which was to charge the Battery or if that didn't work. Fit new Battery. Charging the Battery worked every time.

The problem reoccurred again this week, so rather than charge what was an 11 year old Battery, I had a New Battery fitted, this did nor cure the problem, But, after a long drive, the next day the problem was gone on my first drive of the day, yet an Hour Later on the return drive it had returned, so I charged the New Battery But, this also has not worked, after about 2 or 3 minutes the Amber warning light illuminates and ' Cruise not available' is displayed.

I would like to tell you about a Great Independant in Cornwall, Greg Lummis has been a dedicated Jaguar Technician for over 20 years, and has rebuilt my damaged Jaguar S Type, with enthusiasm and Value.

The Garage is :- G&D Motors, 82A, Kimberley Park Road, Falmouth, Cornwall, TR11 2DF.

TEL:-01326 211117

Regards to you all,

Colin

Suddenly this evening driving with my normal temperature and auto settings, the temperature became unbearably HOT, I had to open the car windows to cope.

The only unusual occurrence was my passenger connected to my Mobile Telephone Parrot device, with bluetooth, then the Heating went wild, I am not sure this fact has any relevance but it was coincidental .

Happy Christmas Friends,

Colin

2004 S Type SE

Hi Peter, here's an update on Cruise control. Firstly I charged up the battery, it showed fully charged and holding charge in about 20 minutes. Went on a test drive and my troubles were over! I thought. It engaged correctly and operated completely normally.

But today as soon as I went out again the Fault had returned. 'cruise not available' so on returning I removed the positive connection on the Battery for 10 minutes as suggested, but that still hasn't cured it. I will try to recharge the Battery again tomorrow, as it is looking like I have a poor Battery, wouldn't you say.

Al,the best my friend,

Colin

I have just charged the Battery so far, run the engine but not driven it to see if cruise works, I cannot try it out as I have a builder parked in front of garage, but I will look at DSC as well thanks,

Regards ,

Colin

Thanks Peter and Trevor I will try that today and let you know, sorry to be always needing Help!

Regards

Colin

Completely out of the Blue while driving today, a yellow warning light came on with the message,

:- CRUISE NOT AVAILABLE

Does anyone know what can be done to sort this out, hopefully without waiting weeks foe an appointment at my Local Jaguar Garage.

Once again I thank you in advance for your help and advice.

Regards to all,

Colin

No relation Trevor,nand I bet you don't find your predicament at all amusing, hope these builders get their fingers out and you are once again back in 'Home Sweet Home'

Regards,

Colin

Hi Martin, yES, I realise that I can get the job done a great deal cheaper now, I'm a bit disabled though, Flying Accident RAF, so, cannot do the work myself. Once again Thank You,

Regards

Colin

Peter I wonder what the good people of Somerset would think that all their troubles started in Manchester !!!

Cheers mate,

Colin

For Trevor, the House is a National Trust Property I was visiting, I had delussions of Gandour, so took the photo with the House in the background, I'm afraid my Home is quite ordinary. Thanks for the nice words about my Jag! Yours probably cost 20 times more, so sell the car and buy your Mansion.

For Peter, yes it is a great colour and we just may get a little more Sun down here,

Regards to you both,

Colin

Yes I was lucky there, i didn't think it would be available,

Regards colin
