  1. if my car was to have the wiring already... were would jaguar hide the connector ?
  2. I have found the wiring diagram and to were it connect to the cluster... this doesn't seem right I was lead to belive it goes through a relay and the control module in the drivers side kick panel. can some one confirm this ? or if I wire it straight in to the cluster will it work?
  3. I no the 2.5l and 3.0l x types have the electric assist on the steering rack.. I have just fit a steering rack off a 3.0l on to my 2.0d . can I retrofit the wiring for servotronic as the replacement rack came with the servo and part of the wiring.
  4. I had the cat up in the air yesterday to give it a oil service and noticed the intercooler is still leaking on the drivers side end... I no it isn't the hose leaking as ive had this off about 5 times and replaced with a new clip , plus its dry. but the join between the end cap and the core is wet. (black sludge , oil ) .. can this intercoolers be repaired or is it best to replace? plus this would answer my low mpg. 43mpg on 100 mile round trip cruising at 70mph 90% of the journey..
  5. think I may have cured the black smoke issue.... changed the partial egr blank to a full egr blank and the smoke has cut down atleast 99%..
  6. the car isn't driven gently.. always gets a hard clear out atleast twice a week... regeneration it doesn't have as it doesn't have a dpf filter. and it doesn't really answer my question
  7. so im still having problems with my 2.0d cat. and smoking underload. ive pin pointed it down to smoking underload between 1500 and 2500rpm .. ive done the test with disconnecting the maf and seeing if anything changes but it still smokes badly and also doesn't throw up any fault codes list of things done : egr , inlet and intercooler clean egr blank with 4mm hole egr to intercooler hose boost leak fix service ran on v power nitro diesel for 2 months with eco millers fuel additive in every tank new injectors and fuel pump and fuel filter 8 months ago by previous owner. could this be the mass air flow metre knackered ? im trying to pin point the problem with out spending big money
  8. I run v power diesel through my cat . but still only getting 37 - 39mpg.. and with the car having 250000 miles on the clock im sure the internals are rather clogged. im at the minute running millers eco max through it . which I have been for the last month or so.
  9. so ive been looking through youtube etc at terraclean and a diy water decarbonisation came up. has any one done this on there diesels? im tight so looking at saving money :)
  10. must of been lucky :) plus I use the m25 every night for work so I no were they hide. anyway it had a blast down the m11 m25 and a10 . of course kept in the speed limit ;)
  11. haha na it was around 11pm at night so was clear.
  12. checked it all earlier from the inlet to outlet of the turbo even the resonator on the hose from the turbo. plus turbo outlet is dry within reason just a bit of gunk which I expected due to the rocker cover breather going to the inlet of the turbo. shaft in turbo seems fine with no play . looks like its had a new turbo at some point.. im going to take it to the garage hopefully next week... just to cross out that it needs a good run to clear it out aswell it had a 110 mile round trip down the m25 and m11 to London yesterday and only returned 39mpg. and its still smoking badly
