HI A picture says it all

Hi You might be lucky, when you take it apart, some people put black tape over the led so might be a quick fix cheers Joe

hi found a better pic I have arrow on the d2b connector and cable cheers Joe

hi I'm sure its the one arrow in red it will have a link in it if there is no where for it to plug into, may also be tapped over we need a wider picture!!! the suspense is killing me!!!

hi I's sure its got one, its usually higher up take a wider picture of that area why would it have one and not the other cheers Joe

Hi I did mine a while ago and it can all be done online within a few days I bought mine off dvla, you get the certificate through in a few days and they include the transfer then you go online and swap it over, it automatically does the v5 log book, which comes through a few days later, your mot is done and tax, pop your plates on and job done got my plates online and they arrived together, all done within 3 days save your old plates, because if you transfer your plate, the old number plate usually goes back cheers Joe

HI At the moment She's all wrapped up for winter, In its bubble Next time I start her up will take some pictures, they do look much better, more up to date cheers Joe

Hi Unfortunately if there the sames as the s-type, its not that simple, new clocks will need programing, to get them working and might even immobilize the car, as its part of the security system it would be easier to repair cheers Joe

hi I dont think its too hard, remove the wood trim, and few screws and the clocks are out just dont switch the ignition on without the clocks back in eml is not a mot fail, but airbag one and abs one is, if they are not working if yo look on youtube ther will be a clip of how to remove clocks look here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3g20GOhVAoc cheers Joe

Hi This is a Dodgy dealer trick, pop the bulb and hey presto no faults But on the s-types its a led, not sure about the x-type, but its most probably the same the led is easily removed also, the light should light up and then go out, same as with the others, like airbags, abs, these are also usually checked on a mot you might have to remove the clock/dash to be sure looking at dashes on ebay, there no bulbs at rear, so there led's and its just a few clips to them apart, so at a guess, they have popped the led off the board cheers Joe

HI Look under that foam, it might be taped over top plug is the fibre optic, bottom plug is wiring the connector is only small the fibre optic d2b is a loop, so basicically you have to extend the loop to include the multichanger cheers joe

Hi hard to say from that picture look more towards the rear, more towards the rear light the connectors are tapped up some times with a foam tape, to stop them rattling have you a wider pic of that whole side cheers joe

Hi I don't mind, it just seems strange why some people would ask the same questions, on different forums, when they get reply's you generally get the same answers, its fair enough if you don't get any reply's for your questions, then try else where but I've noticed it a lot, I flick through a lot of forums, at least 4 jaguar ones and many others, as I own a few cars and a few motorbikes and some do ask the same questions on as many forums as they can, in the hope to get instant answers and help but sometimes people get fed up of answering the same questions, because they too, browse a few forums and see what questions are being asked, some forums have stickies at the top of each sections, where common questions are kept, so they don't have to repeat them selves again but you'll find 90% of the questions people ask have all ready been answered and if you use the search bar at the top of the page, you can find the answers to most questions instantly, as it will of been asked many times before cheers Joe

Hi You have all ready asked this question on the other jaguar forum, actually its the same word for word same reply http://www.jaguarforum.com/showthread.php?t=97573 cheers joe

HI Ok find me any other manufacturers that have them in the uk 95% of manufacturers in the uk dont have them even x-types, look on ebay most x-types dont have them I've only ever seen them on jaguars cheers Joe

Hi I like it !!, I'm going to do mine in summer and even have a go at making the marker reflectors in clear in summer got all the stuff ready, just got make the mould, Had a go at making some obsolete plastic gears last year, they came out a treat will let you know how i go on, cheers Joe

hi you need to plug in and see what obd codes are there, when the fault happens to know really it could be one of many things, but with it clearing, it might be something simple cheers Joe

Hi looking at the code it says circuits, so might relate to both sides cheers joe

Hi The wiring should be all ready there there hit and miss, some work straight away and some need setting up with SDD software you might need a different d2b optical lead, but there usually is a spare d2d lead, with a link lead in cheers Joe

Hi looks like there's no adjustment at the gearbox, its at the j-gate It could be some kind of switch inside the j-gate when you put into drive, does the "D" letter light up on the j-gate if not it might j-gate that need to be looked at cheers Joe

Hi There a cable on the j-gate that goes to the gearbox it might just want adjusting, by moveing it over to 4th and back, might just move in to position, could be just off position cheers joe

hi its the 3.0-litre V6 diesel AJ-V6D Gen III engine and it does have cam belts I'd get the relpaced its not the mileage, like you say, its the age cheers Joe

hi it only lists the 3.0 engine above and I think thats a petrol will have a look cheers Joe

Hi the only 2010 3.0 XF engine I can find on autodata has no timing belts It has timing chains, so they wont be due for years yet with that mileage cheers Joe

hi what engine does your car have cheers Joe
