  1. Happy Birthday JohnDerby!

  2. Thanks for your help and advise everyone. The fault was that the con-rod on cylinder 8 is sticking out into the engine casing. One really dead engine. The car is now in Doncaster with Chris Isle who seems a really knowledgable and nice guy. Beyond resuscitation, we are looking at a transplant. Jaguar simply don't want to know.
  3. I have a 2009 XKR that has done nearly 24,000 miles and looks the business, but unfortunately has died. I have been told by my local Jaguar dealership that the engine is seized and that the only answer is to have a new engine. Though they haven't officially quoted me, they said that the cost will be nearer to £15k than £10k. I am in shock, and disbelief. Jaguar UK do not seem particularly interested. Has anyone had a similar experience? Can anyone suggest an independent specialist who might be able to help? Anyone any other suggestions?
  4. Welcome to the Jaguar forums JohnDerby :)
