  1. had same problem with my 3.o litre X type, £400 lighter now as a result just posted some photos on another part of forum, they were pretty bad. I too wondered how they could have got so bad in a year since it's last MOT when dealer had it tested. I urge everyone to get them checked as comes as a nasty shock when a total of £750 lighter for MOT
  2. welcome to the club We all adore our Jaguars
  3. Had my X type 3.0 litre awd just over a year now, and I love it. Always been a Jag fan. took it for MOT end of January and oh my what a shock, failed on a few things, needed new brake discs and pads on rear, new drop links on front suspension, but the big shocker was it need welding on front sills on both sides, ok I thought it's of a certain age and should not be to bad. as photos attached show it was a total shock to see how bad they had become. so I urge you to get your cars checked. £400 to get a welder to put right, but I still love my Jag, that 3.0 Litre Purrr and AWD is pure heaven. the cause of the problem is water gets trapped behind the plastic trim, and cannot escape fully, so just sits there
  4. jaguar x type 2003 3.0 V6 auto 121,000 mile had since feb 2015 just gone for MOT and sadly failed, new discs and pads on rear, drop links on front suspension. but main worry is need to have new sills on both sides as badly corroded, plastic cover inside doors apparently known for retaining water and corroding fast, past MOT last year year, but the rainy year and damp conditions have just helped to make things worse this is my first Jaguar, been a big fan for years. final bill likely to be about £800+ Er'indoors not best pleased, but hey i love my Jaguar
