Hi There been a few that have had a similar fault, ended up being tyres Try swapping the front with the rear and see if it shifts cheers Joe

HI Steve I think thats normal, Mine similar to that, when you switch the ignition off, you still get power to the control modules on the car, for about 10 mins, then the 12v go off I noticed this on mine when I changed some of my side light bulbs and number plate bulbs for led bulbs when I switch the ignition off, the led stay lit, very dim for about 10 mins, these cars use a permanent feed to every thing, then you switch the earth through each control module to earth, to bring the item on I noticed, they keep a very slight voltage on most things like bulbs and relays, to monitor there health, this will be the approx 3 amps for that short time and 15 millamps is quite good for leakage Mines the same after about 2 weeks it starts to drain, so if you have a 90 AH battery, your battery should last 90AH / 0.15mA = 600 hr / 24 = 25 days I used a Jaguar CTEK charger on mine, its keeps the battery tip top, I also have a ctek charger on my Mitsubishi, when its not in use, another summer car and the battery on that is just coming up to 10 years old my S-type has a charge socket in the boot, when I put it in the garage I open the boot and plug in the charger, close the boot and thats it, it looks after the battery cheers Joe

Hi If it was working ok before the sender repair, then its got to be the sender or wiring If the sender was wired incorrect, then it would read wrong I'd take it back and get it checked, where the repair was done on some cars, when fitting new senders, they need recalibrating, but if your has the original one, just had the connector removed it should read the same I'm wondering if they got the wires mixed up when the removed the connector and fitted the crimps, sometimes the wires are all the same color and these could easily be mixed up and that would give the symptoms you mention cheers Joe

Hi Not sure about the XJ6, but my S-type the sat nav dvd goes in the boot you could eject it and see what year dvd you have there available on places like ebay to update the maps cheers Joe

Hi There a few online like British car parts, SNG, David manners. But if you want a bargain or better deal, just look on eBay Cheers Joe

Hi I try british car parts, just google british car parts Or even have a look on ebay, there usually cheaper on there cheers Joe

Hi Its control via a module via the engine ecu, glow time depends on temp I'd say you have lost some of the glowplugs and thats why you struggling you need check them with a multimeter, they read very low resistance usually less than 10 ohms here some info out of JTIS that might help cheers Joe

Hi I don't where people get this from I think its BMW drivers, Pretending to be Jaguar drivers!! cheers Joe

Hi and welcome post some pics up cheers Joe

hi could be one of many things from low oil, to a faulty sensor you need to plug in and read any error fault codes cheers Joe

Hi What's happening, who's been letting the side down? Jaguar drivers, are the worst drivers http://www.express.co.uk/life-style/cars/770663/worst-drivers-UK-car-brand-Jaguar-bad-habits https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/2962260/jaguar-drivers-are-britains-worst-with-eighty-six-per-cent-admitting-to-speeding/ http://cars.aol.co.uk/2017/02/27/jaguar-drivers-overtake-bmw-owners-are-britain-s-worst-motorists/ so come on, own up, is it any body on here what do you think? cheers Joe

Hi Best place is most probably Ebay, there should be a greater selection gaiter might not be that expensive new, so might be worth looking at new try, british car parts, they do jaguar and are usually reasonably priced cheers Joe

Hi This is out of the JTIS for that fault code cheers Joe

Hi does this have the zf 6 speed transmission 6HP26, cheers Joe

Hi no won't effect it, when the airbag goes off, the whole panel is blown off, there two straps at the top that stop it flying off and hitting the passenger, should swing right up and onto the dash cheers Joe

hi Have you tried getting it plugged in Just in case there's any stored fault codes, might give you a better idea cheers Joe

Hi +1 for the Goodyear eagles, better grip that the continental sport contact 3, which were OE equipment had the XL rated ones, Xtra Load, reinforced sidewalls, car seems to sit better cheers Joe

Hi Don't know how old this pic is but looks like its been built if you look on google maps there's a few new building cheers Joe

hi Its most likely bolt straight on, though the two gearboxes are completely different, problem is getting the new gearbox coded to the existing engine you would have to ask a jaguar indy and once you swapped it, its not going to drive till its programed to your car, so would have to be trailered to the indy garage for programing years ago you just swapped and away you went, now everthing is on a can bus type comms and every module talks to each other and are coded to each other cheers Joe

Hi S-type's never had the option of carbon fibre, never seen carbon in a s-type its aluminium, effect, sort of, 2005 brochure one of the last brochure's
