  3. Connect to the tube which comes directly from the pump and terminates via a multi connector under the bulkhead. I have tried to send you pic attachments but they will not load for some reason....good luck
  4. Mohammed, did you have any luck with my suggestion... be good to have feedback.
  5. Mohammed I have exactly the same car as you and had the same problem. Its usually caused by the washer pump filter getting blocked with the windscreen washer additive turning into a gel over time. My solution which worked for me was to back flush by removing the the small washer pipe and connecting it to a garden hose pipe using a reducing connector (see photo 12mm to 6mm)..... you will then see all the crud come floating up in the top up filler tube..... The more time consuming option would be to remove the wheel arch lining to access the pump and clean the filter itself. I have since stopped using screen wash additive and not had any problems since....... Good Luck
  6. Dave...Try this...it worked for me....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXd-nHAYRZc
  7. Can anyone offer advice please (2006 S type petrol) ...My engine warning is on so I have checked the fault codes and it comes up with P2444 and P0430...it seems to be indicating a fault on secondary air injection system stuck on bank one....can anybody tell me where this air pump is ? and could it be down to other associated parts.

  10. Hi Bill, welcome to the club.....A while ago I commented on independant Jag garages around Bolton/Manchester area .........over the years of owning several S types I have used "Jagman" at Platt Bridge, Wigan. for servicing, repairs etc. He also sells various used Jag parts on E-Bay etc. ... if anyone can sort you out with spotlights, he can. (Anyone in the Manchester, Bolton, Wigan area I would recommend http://jagman.co.uk/...used them regularly over the past 6 years with no complaints.) Their address.....Jagman, Platt Street, Platt Bridge WN2 5DA...(Contact: Dave)
  11. Good Morning Peter My next door neighbour when I was applying the polish asked the same question ....maybe you could try google and search for blue shoe polish/creams, there seems to be lots of choice including various coloured leather polishes. I know iv'e suggested this for black cars but not sure it will work on other colours - your decision Peter ! it might be worth a try for a few ££
  12. I have recently had my front bumper repaired and resprayed (2006 black s type xs ) ...the garage had done a brilliant job but it put the front end to shame with all the white stone chips especially on the bonnet which resembled the sky at night. Then enquiring about a respay, the guy suggested I should try a trick of the trade and use black shoe polish paste. Having just finished and with additional coats of Poorboys + Carnauba wax the result is amazing.....hundreds of tiny white chips have disappeared.....worth a try chaps
  13. Anyone in the Manchester, Bolton, Wigan area I would recommend http://jagman.co.uk/...used them regularly over the past 6 years with no complaints. Their address.....Jagman, Platt Street, Platt Bridge WN2 5DA...(Dave) I also use a Jaguar trained mobile mechanic named Ian Caton...Cato Auto's Tel No 07709 345351 Ian is an excellent mechanic, does not overcharge. I have been using him over the past 8 years on all family cars....no job to large!!! He is based in Leigh area.......the down side is that he is always very busy and not always able to do urgent work.
  14. Andrew Thanks for your reply and suggestions. I think you could be right regarding a faulty door actuator. Recently when I lock the doors using the fob they immediately unlock, this will happen several times before staying locked. I will follow your instructions to identify which actuator is the the culprit.....the down side seems to be fitting a new one. I've read in a forum online its 3/4 hours labour.....see link below. http://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/s-type-s-type-r-supercharged-v8-x200-15/rear-door-lock-actuator-fix-w-pics-faq-65657/
