Hi,

Try this company, they are based in Lincoln.

My old 2.5 petrol one was a pig to fill up. I found best way was to hold with handle at 9 O Clock and pull trigger to max. I could get between £5 and £7 at a time before it stopped.

My new diesel one is perfect and fills quickly with one press.

I seem to recall a thread on another forum that mentioned a canister that requires replacement but i can't remember exact details.

Sound a little like slack in the transfer box, mine clunked when I got it at 60,000 and still clunked at 96,000 when I sold it. I reduced it by changing gear slowly and carefully.

X Type as a 1st car, can't be bad, mine was an Austin 1800, you may need to google that as it was a long time ago!

Not sure really, apparently the car is connected to SDD whilst Oil changing and if it requires an update it does it automatically. I haven't noticed much difference in the car yet but apparently the Oil removed was thinner then it should be.

I've just had a gearbox flush and new Oil plus software update at a very reasonable price at S&D Transmissions in Doncaster.

I used a 90cm strip of adhesive LED's in mine,  stuck them behind the lip so they aren't visible and wired them into the original light. Much better light then original.

Hi

Seeing you have the Auto, i take it you will have a Diesel Particulate Filter if you have this Filter which is connected to the Exhaust. You will need to use a Low Ash C 1 Oil, I use SHELL HELIX DIESEL ULTRA AFL C1 5/30 which meets specifications Of Ford&Jaguar

WSS-M2C 934-B and use a Genuine Jaguar Oil Filter. As for the Auto Gearbox changing the Fluid is not a DIY JOB, i had my Transmission Fluid changed last July at MACKIE'S AUTO TRANSMISSIONS in Glasgow after having a Jaguar meeting there in March last year. My Gearbox is a Aisin Warner make and I think it cost £153 pounds they connect a Hot Flushing Machine to Two Hose Pipes,If you have the DPF try not to do a lot of short journeys if you do they say you should take the x type on a run for 1/2 to 1 hour above 30/40 miles per hour and keep the revs about 2,500/3,000 in 4th on Manuel every 3 to 4 Weeks ,Diesels are ment to be Driven coming out of a Roundabout give it some Wellie don't always keep the REVS below 2,000. I have had my x type for 2years and 8 months and have never had the DPF FULL Warning Light come on, and i always try and Fill

Up with SHELL V POWER DIESEL. And always use a Genuine Jaguar Diesel Fuel Filter.

That's great advice. I use Millers C1 Oil direct from Opie Oils.

Just a quick question about gearbox Oil. My 08 auto has done approx 63,000 miles. I've had it about 7 months and (touch wood) haven;t had a DPF message yet although it has regenerated between 500 and 750 miles. Would it be a good idea to try and find an auto gearbox expert in my area to get the fluid changed.

Mine was the same. Remove the wipers and cowl. There are two connections, one in each corner. Check the electrical connection fastened to the bulkhead at the faulty side. Mine was impossible to split as it was corroded. I cut it off and used choc blocks, heatshrink and lots of tape to rewire.

Result, heated windscreen now functions correctly
