    Hi The left one in the D2B network, which is a fibre optic, it goes to phone, nav, voice, cd changer, amp, it loops to each one, so you will either alter yours so in now includes the cd changer, or buy a new one off ebay that has a extra connector, this is for sound the smaller one is power, it should be there some where, usually taped to the loom with foam sponge protecting it cheers Joe

    Hi yes it should work the fibre optic cable wont be used and you just need a adapter for the aerial cheers Joe

    Hi If its the diesel, I would go with faulty injectors, only way is to get them tested really if you have a bad leaky injector, it can cause oil level to rise, is you oil level correct you still should get a fault code cheers Joe

    HI first release the park brake and press the park brake down and turn the ignition off and pull the key out, park brake will stay off now remove the rear caliper and pads, the wind the piston back with a tool like ralphs picture above refit discs, pads and caliper, you might want to adjust the piston on the caliper, so the caliper fits on snug, no large amount of play, but not too tight it binds the you need to disconnect the battery and reconnect, you will get a message now saying apply the parking brake, press the brake pedal a few times so its hard, the apply the EPB and thats it cheers Joe

    Hi Have a good look round the boot, make sure there's nothing floating around the spare wheel also I had a strange tapping noise, ended up been those rear seat cable pulls, mine use to just float around and sort of bounce between the carpet and boot hinges, making a tapping noise ended up putting black velcro round them and sticking them back to the carpet cheers Joe

    hi yes the other is aerial does your car have the 7" touch screen cheers Joe
  11. JOE-DOT-COM
    HI are you trying to replace the 7" jaguar touch screen, with a after market one, if so you cant, because you will lose all you heater climate control. the cable your holding a a fibre optic D2B network on the car, all the sound is digitaly sent down that fibre optic, that fibre optic loops into every thing with sound on the car, and send it to the amp for sound,if any of the fibre loop is disconnected you will loose all the sound on the car, stereo, cd, dvd, nav ,voice , phone, bluetooth If your car has the older lcd display, then this connector is not used, unless your car has nav, voice , phone, bluetooth and the loom you have is most probably correct what stereo are you replacing cheers Joe

    Hi its depends weather it has the module fitted or not if you press the phone icon on the steering wheel and its say mute its more than likely not fitted if you go here to ford etis Ford Etis and enter you vin number, it will give you full spec you need phone module and bluetooth module to pair a phone cheers Joe

    HI You must have a leak, though it might be small, problem is most garages now have these all in one machines that vac it down, leak test and fill with gas. You need to have a good look around, most common place would be the condenser, radiator behind the bumper, have a good look at it, especially in the corners, if you see any staining that a yellow/green color, odds are that's where your leak is most air con people will put dye in that shows up with a uv light, they can also put in a sealer, that will fix minor leaks, like that, my S-type R which uses the same component as the XF, the air con is ice cold, your better off ringing a proper air conditioning engineer out, most do cars and should be able to find the leak, there no more expensive and all they work on is air con, most are old school and don't use the all in one machines cheers Joe
  15. JOE-DOT-COM
    HI That sounds like the most common fault on S-types Low battery, will give all them faults, get the battery checked If you can, get it on charge over night cheers Joe
  16. JOE-DOT-COM

    Hi Only way to know for sure is to plug into a Jaguar IDS/SDD, that will give you faults codes for every thing generic code readers will only give you basic faults and they wont show gearbox faults cheers Joe
  20. JOE-DOT-COM
    Hi If you go to Ford Etis link here https://www.etis.ford.com/vehicleRegSelector.do;jsessionid=VyW1v8Q9DA9zAb1QyvoNx-q84EY6unbhnE-qBI9h.eccvas1900j it will give the the exact spec it left the factory with from Jaguar cheers Joe
  21. JOE-DOT-COM
    HI If you go to the Ford ETIS page https://www.etis.ford.com/vehicleRegSelector.do;jsessionid=VyW1v8Q9DA9zAb1QyvoNx-q84EY6unbhnE-qBI9h.eccvas1900j and enter your vin number, you can see exactly what spec the car is and what options it has It can be a minefield in buying a good jaguar, s-type, they put that many electronics into them these days, they can be a right pain some cars do have folding mirrors and they can seized if there not used regular, but have a look on ford etis and it will tell you if its got them fitted Hope you get better luck and get it sorted easily and like Andy said there loads of spares on Ebay cheers Joe
  22. JOE-DOT-COM
    Hi Have you driven the car yet, what it like I Put a pair of grooved and drilled discs on a car years ago, never again, the brake's were noisy in the morning after a really wet night and they made quite a lot noise under heavy braking, never really bothered me, but got some really strange looks when I got passengers in just wondered what there like nowadays cheers Joe

    HI Your suppose to check every thing work before you buy it, Not after Just hope you checked the sills when you bought it, as you might be in for a serious shock cheers Joe
  24. JOE-DOT-COM
    Hi One of the most important check you have missed is sills, they can suffer with severe corrosion on the sills, year unrelated effects early ones and also late ones, so is a must to check, the sills can completely rot away, but still pass a mot, as they are covered will a plastic cover, cheers Joe
  25. JOE-DOT-COM
    HI I don't think its air/fuel mixture ratio Modern cars are microprocessor controlled as you say, its constantly try's to reach stoichiometric, A/F ratio is 14.7:1, as it does this many thousand times a second, if fuel alters or you get a air leak it compensates for it instantly,for a air leak you have fuel trims, short term fuel trims and long term fuel trims, but if they usually reach 25% you get a engine management fault can't see fuel grade effecting it, unless there's another under lying fault here a video describing fuel trims to attain stoichiometric its interesting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WnM_NsOtd8&t=51s cheers Joe
