  1. Hi I would go online and get a quote, and with most sites you can add modifications and see what price difference it makes cheers Joe
  2. Hi According to Jaguar its a fixed price for cambelt for s-type diesel 2.7 of £375 have a look here http://www.jaguar.co.uk/owners/servicing-maintenance/fixed-price-servicing.html personally I'd get it changed for peace of mind, if it fails, its very expensive, new engine cheers Joe
  3. Hi Hope This helps cheers Joe
  4.

  6. Hi If your battery is getting tired, it can do this sometimes, they lockup on low voltage as with most things jaguar, disconnecting the battery cures most faults cheers Joe

  8. Hi and Welcome I fitted Adamesh ones on my S-type R, Makes the V8 sound great and its not to loud on a run There suppose to give better performance and there a big weight saving cheers Joe
  9. Hi I'd check the battery, also be tempted to remove it and check the connections, could just be a bad connection also, if you have the code, if it needs one, I would also disconnect the battery and reconnect it, that could also reset it only other proper way would be to plug in and see what fault codes there are cheers Joe
  10. Hi Usually OE ones have a valve some have two, one prevents the oil draining back when the engine stands and the other, if it has it, acts like a bypass, if the filter gets too blocked sometimes the oil lights comes on as it fills the filter, but only one or two seconds on older cars, I use to pull the wire off the ignition coil and crank it till the oil light goes out, then replace the wire and start it, but its not that easy on modern cars you did the right thing as not to run it and change it back Oil filter in one of those things I allways like to use a Genuine Jaguar one. cheers Joe
  11. HI and Welcome Sounds like a low battery, Its the biggest cause of problems on the s-type I charged your battery over night, no need to disconnect the battery, just put it on charge If it cures it, it may be due for a new battery You could check battery voltage and read what fault codes you have, but I'd try charging the battery first, it the most common faults for modules going into fault, switching the ignition off and on should clear it, but it will be back if the battery getting tired and low cheers Joe
  12. Hi Cant find much under that code Do you have your VIN number I can look on JTIS cheers Joe

  15. Hi All Took some photos today at the NEC Classic car show, some are not the best, as taken with my phone made a slideshow with them here's the link NEC CLASSIC CAR SHOW select HD for best quality cheers Joe
  16. HI Try a Jaguar indy, there must one local to you they would be a lot cheaper cheers Joe
  17. Hi Yes you have to get it programed to get it working cheers Joe
  18. Hi Sound like a common elecy window/central locking fault At a guess the wires in the door shuts, have broken, open the the door and wriggle the wires gently, while pressing the window switch, if they start and stop working, odds are some have snapped usually you can unclip the rubber protection boots to expose the wires, some may be visably snapped, if not if you pull on them, some will be stretchy/elastic and break best way is to use wire crimps and crimp them, some people will strip, twist and solder them, which is a better repair/joint, but will leave the wire more prone to snapping, as the soldering leaves the copper cable slightly softer and will snap. cheers Joe
  19. Hi All Any Body here going NEC Classic Car Show this Friday, Saturday or Sunday Very Good show in the past, with lots of Jaguar's there I will be going this friday, I will try take as many photos as i can and post them up, so everyone can have a look cheers Joe
  20. Hi I picked up a like feed from the fuse box Also if your fog/drl has 3 wires on it, 1 feed 12v for fog and 1 feed for drl and 1 earth, if you have connected them to the original fog wiring, then when you switch the fogs off, the drl will also go off, as the jaguar switches the earth off, which will turn both fog and drl off cheers Joe
  21. Hi very nice cheers Joe
  22. Hi I sprayed the insides of the sills, with wurth cavity wax, creeps in every where, stops it and will save them long term cheers Joe
  23. Hi and Welcome Simon It may be worth swapping you expansion tank cap, you may all ready done so with the new expansion tank but it may be the cause of some of the leaks, if the pressure in the system is getting too high, due to a faulty cap cheers Joe
  24. Hi Found this while looking through JTIS Its in the Pre Delivery Inspection Here stype_pdi.pdf but more interesting in the section " effects of battery disconnection " I found this below So if your car is driving strange after disconnecting the battery and its a auto, it may be worth trying may be worth adding to the battery reset doc cheers Joe
