Hi Dean---Sorry to hear of your problem just on Christmas First thing is to check for any leaks on Radiator or pipes on to floor .??? if theres no leaking it must be internal--Dip the oil to see if it has gone above the full mark???? start the car if it misses or will not run smooth .???? These checks need doing to see where the water has gone .??? with luck it will just be a leak. Best of luck . Frank

Hi Robert --Yes I'm afraid there is a problem with the X Type rusting sills I had to have 2 put on mine and + MOT it cost £450 so not a cheap item but once done and treated it can be forgotten I'm not sure but I think that 2006 and after do not suffer from this ???? I hope you get everything sorted as they are a great car . Frank

Hi Graham I hope this link will help it dos'nt look a problem to me ???? http://www.carcarekiosk.com/video/2009_Jaguar_XF_Luxury_4.2L_V8/lights/turn_signal_front Frank

Hi Brian = I can see the way your thinking here -But if you put a 12v battery to the feed to the window and that is where your fault is shorting out and you havent a fuse between the feed something will get-- Hot-????? so I think if I was you I would pull some wires off in other words disconect these things you think are blowing your fuse until the light go's out as mike has explained ----Best of luck. Frank

Hi Andrew Iv'e not had this problem on my X Type but I did on a car a few years back and so I think you have a really bad vacuum leak on you brake booster so when you apply your brake the leak changes the engine mixture stopping it.??? Get someone to check the booster while you press the brake.??? Frank

Hello Geoffrey and welcome to the Jaguar Owners Club. You have a really nice looking SType and I like your choice of wheel they suit it very well. Frank

Hi Karl Just a thought-- I'm not sure with the XK but with the SType there's a rubber hose between the filler pipe and the tank + a filter at the tank end so if I was you I would do a check on that end ???? The inside of the rubber pipe could be breaking up.??? Its got to be a blockage because its a back preasure that switch's the fuel pump off.??? Best of Luck. Frank

Beautiful Cat and a true pride and joy its a credit to you I wish I had the time . Frank

Hi Amal I got mine from Ebay £22 and its made of a heavy metal and very well made big spring on the bottom and knocks round just as it should . Frank

Hi Paul Sounds great and all neat and tidy . Frank

Yes but I think you still have a broken wire in one of harness's from the sensors.??? Frank

Hi Nick The part that was faulty on my car was -- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FRONT-ABS-HARNESS-LEAD-FOR-ABS-SENSOR-Jaguar-X-Type-2002-2010/271983352136?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D33959%26meid%3Dae4e2ce694534fad8d0b592bba784087%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D191720364554 By the sound of it yours could be any of the wires and this fits N/S or O/S .??? I know yours is a S Type but i should think its simular.??? Frank

Hi Paul Good thinking and well worth a try keep us informed as it sounds good. Frank

Hi Paul Now this needs thinking about ---Can side lazer markers be fitted to front corners to tell when too close ???? ---Or can a sensor be fitted some how on the garage walls so a red light comes on --on the wall that you are too close to.????? Think.?? Think.?? Frank

Hi Nick I had a very simular fault and changed sensors and a wheel bearing and I still had the fault on and off.?? In the end it was found to be the short set of wires under the o/s wing that goes from the sensor to a joiner through the inner wing £4 something on Ebay so if I was you I would change both fronts and see.????
