  1. I needed to access to fuse box located near the accelerator pedal. Using the electric seat button to move It backwards I waited as it came to a stop when I heared a loud click and an 8mm ball bearing suddenly appeared on the carpet in front of me. I suspect that the ball is part of the seat sliding mechanism but what do I need to do to sort this issue - the seat still operates OK.
  2. Hi Peter. Its fairly obvious that your familiar with the area that I call South Cumbria but to the minions who live in the flat lands and haven't a clue how beautiful this part of the country is then they don't know what they are missing. Thanks for the reply.
  3. Hi, I am a newbie to the Jaguar club after many years with Mercedes. My 02 C class is now up for sale and I am gradually getting to grips with my recently acquired S Type. Deep down I believe that the Jag will have a tough job to be as good as the C class – but time alone will tell. So far I'm quite pleased with the big cat. It definitely has more poke and gives a much smoother ride than my old Merc and the 6-speed Auto box is excellent. Although its early days yet, fuel consumption appears to be a little heavier than the Merc but this may be a reflection on my driving using all the new found power. I live in South Cumbria and am a retired Senior Lecturer in Auto Engineering. In my early days I raced motorcycles and rode for Crooks-Suzuki until, in 1970, I decided to retire from this fairly hazardous game. I still enjoy all aspects of two-wheeled sport and my face book profile clearly shows this. My name (glenvine) is taken from the Isle of Man TT course and refers to a sweeping RH bend about a mile before the village of Crosby. The true Manx name for this curve is Ballagarey. However, on the apex of the corner is a lovely bungalow called Glenvine and as this was one of my favourite bits of the course I chose the name as my handle. Wish me luck with my S Type
  4. I'm having difficulty pairing my iPhone with the cars bluetooth system
