  2. Hi Peter , 2 EGR valves fitted woahh that sounds expensive , what was the quote and are you putting it in Indepentant garage or , Jag steeler. Cheers Mally
  3. Hi Peter , A Happy New Year to you and the Wife Sir . . I have not been on here for some time to be honest just cant seem to find the time . I put the post up on the alternator , as it is a common fault apparently the battery light staying on . and I could'nt find anything on the web really apart from changing the battery ( which isn't all ways the case of solving it ) and the alternator .. People have changed Both and still had the Battery light on after resetting it. fingers crossed mine is ok now. Having said that , I started the car today and drove off about 100 yards to a give way , and I looked at the dash it said GEARBOX FAULT. ???? I pulled up around the corner switched the ignition off waited a few seconds , switched on and hey presto no warning and all back to normal , It has done other things like xmas eve ( of all days ) PARKING BRAKE FAULT , it has had a New EPB about 6 moths ago so I knew there was nothing wrong . All you do is take off the battery negative connection wait about 30 seconds , put it back on then turn on ignition and apply foot brake and handbrake switch on and off 5 times and hey presto .. I had the gearbox serviced about 6 months ago at Northwest transmissions in Liverpool who were brilliant and I would totally recommend them .they charge £300 take the car in the morning and they ring when its ready .. I have come to realise how Sensitive these cars are for electronics . the sensors a lot of the time are sending signals when nothing is wrong . BUT !!! I STILL LOVE MY CAT . I hope everything is good your side Peter , my Kindest regards Mally.
  4. Hi all , I have had my stype 2007 lately with the red battery light on . I got it checked by computer plug in , and it was the alternator starting to die . the reading said …….. Generator Field Low. Purchased one from carparts in Liverpool costing £135 exchange. My mechanic actually got it off by wriggling it around the gap that was available , after removing the engine undercover , and the intercooler pipe and a lot of wiggling about but it did come out. one tip is to take a photo as it comes clear , so as to the angle to put the new one in and spin it in to position for bolting up. It was quite a Chinese puzzle , left a bit up a bit , right a bit etc , but it Will go Without damaging anything , and removing any subframes . from start to finish 3 hours and red light now off . charge £60 but he is a friend . I hope this may help if anyone has the same problem . Cheers Mally.
  5. Hi Peter yes I am fine here thanks, sorry for the delay in responding I don't get on here much lately. I hope that you are well and the Wife.. I will put it up on the ramps in the garage and get my mechanic to check that for me. So there is no way of knowing if the wiring is there or fitting's without actually taking off the bumper . Another question , the black cross headed plastic clips holding the radiator cover on where can I find them ???? . I need 4 if anybody has any spares obviously I will pay for them. I have added a pic of the ones I need . My thermostat housing blew off a couple of weeks ago , and the culprit was the heater control valve , cost £240 for each part with fitting , both were replaced and were I broke down , I was there for 5 and a half hours !!!!! . All thanks to the AA . absolute disgrace they were MUPPETS.!!! they wanted to tow an AUTOMATIC . JOKE. then they realised after 2 different muppets had looked at the car that it had to be piggy backed .Oh I could go on ! sorry . Anyway the car is running Great , I have had loads and I mean loads of cars over the years and the first one to EVER let me down .. BUT I still LOVE My Cat. Kindest regards Peter Mally.
  6. Hi Guys , my s type never had 2 accessories one being folding in mirrors , which I purchased and have had fitted . the second one is it does not have fog lights fitted . I am thinking of fitting the DRL type or is it possible to fit oem fog lights. Question . is it a straight forward job , ie is the wiring all ready there behind the black blanking cover on the bottom of the front bumper , or do I require a wiring loom etc . Has anyone fitted DRL 's if so could you point me in the right direction to the type I need Cheers Mally.
  7. Hi Guys , I have a 2007 and I am wondering if this updated 2012 sat nav disc will in fact load straight in . here is the link : http://satnavdiscsale.com/jaguar-sat-nav-16-c.asp Thank s. Mally.
  8. Hi Peter , Great speaking with you sir. I look forward to meeting you on the 22nd . I have your tour tickets all ready for you .hopefully your Wife will enjoy it on her Birthday . I have added an image of the car now the power folds have been fitted . I was told they are very hard to come by and I actually bought 3 as the first one was a n/s, and then i saw 2 others but they were getting sold as a pair. I have put the n/s one on ebay it has a blue cover but that can be changed . i was not sure if you could sell through the forum and i didn't want to upset any of the moderators . See you soon. Mally.
  9. Hi Peter , , the gentleman thought I bought the car off let me know about the dpf . I do go on the m57 most days so if fact it does get a good run. Thank you for letting me know though . That is a nice blue , similar to the car I was originally going to buy , but it was over in Sheffield . I really normally look at lots of vehicles before I make my mind up it has to be right . But it was a long way to go , especially if it wasn't right upon arrival. My wife and I shop in Widnes most Saturdays , but at the moment we have give it a miss as they are constructing the New Bridge next to the Runcorn bridge. and when we went the week before last , we actually had to GO OVER THE BRIDGE to come back to get home crazzzy . Paul did advise me and I will post some pics when fitted. I have just checked over the power fold units lubricated them all ready to be fitted. ( pic below )alas not today it is tipping down , and the car wont fit in the conservatory ha ha. I have the option of going to use the garage at work loads of room , but I love my weekends at home. When you are coming up to Liverpool let me know and I will pass you some complimentary tickets for the Liverpool Sightseeing Tour I am sales manager , you will love it. really. We have just taken delivery of a vintage rolls Royce to add to our limousine fleet and I have posted a pic blow also. Cheers mally.
  10. Hi Jim and Hi to you too Peter Thank you both for your kind welcome to the forum. it is the 2.7 diesel Peter , ( my first diesel car ever ) . the first image is of the car when I purchased it. The second is about 2 hours later parked at my works as I still had my car (2.0 focus ) on the drive at home. I will post a few more shortly . Yes Jim raistlinn has advised me how to go about fitting them. I actually picked a pair up today for £130 , it should have been £140 but I collected them rather that courier. I got them from jojags in speke in Liverpool, very nice and helpful staff . Too be honest not really regarding any other mods Jim ,as I wanted the power fold mirrors I am just going to keep it as is . I got the guy at jojags to double check for me when I got there , he said no there standard , all beit they have memory and anti glare glass fitted. I have got the handbook and All the service history All done at Jag also yes I have got the handbook Peter. It was not me in the Bentley Flying Spur as I do drive the company 's quite a lot ( 3 rd pic ) we also have a Phantom Rolls . E Type beautiful machine Peter , in 1971 I left school to be an apprentice mechanic , at a garage in Liverpool ( which is not around anymore ) called Watsons in Roscoe st off Renshaw st ., learning on BMC , JAG and Rolls Royce. Great days .
  11. Hi Paul , I have sourced 2 complete units and collecting them in the morning. £140. I will fit them over the weekend . I phoned Ryan up at jag indie and he will programme them for me at a nominal cost. so looking good . Thank you for your advice and help it is much appreciated.
  12. Hi Paul , Good morning thank you for the pic , i will have a go now just have to source 2 mirrors . I will get back to you when fitted Sir. with some pics. Cheers Mally.
  13. Hi Paul thanks for the swift reply. Yes I will definitely need a pair of them lol. I have changed the batterys in the 2 key fobs I have for the car , so I know how to change the pcb's in them just the one small screw. The drivers door electronic module where is that Paul behind the door card ? I don't mind taking them off that was easy to be fair , but I did put a hairline crack in one putting them back after fitting laser projector lights there wired into the puddle lights. So also Paul you are saying that there is a powerfold module all ready in the door ? and I can get this programmed to the mirrors that I buy. Cheers Mally.
  14. Hi Paul , thank you for the welcome . I did phone jag dealer earlier and give the vin number and the Lady informed me that they were not fitted at manufacture . I still believed they were power so my friend said go onto vindecodez my car came up as a 4.0l ? . strange . To retro fit then Paul what is involved in that please , thanks Mally.
  15. Hi Andy , I am new on here . I had a water ingress into the drivers footwell and a couple of days later it was dry ? . I asked the mechanic and he says it is most probably from the windscreen at the bottom corner drivers side, and that it could need re-bonding . but it can be done with clear sealant for about £30. hope this is of some help.
  16. Hi all , just like to introduce myself I have bought my first Jaguar it is a 2007 S Type SE miles at just hit 90k. too be honest I have had it since just before Christmas. I have all ways wanted one as I cant afford a Bentley ( yet ) , just waiting for Mr Camelot to find my numbers lol . In the few months that I have owned it , I have really been impressed and started to really love the car , that they do grow on you . I have had the mod on the exhaust done as it was leaking fumes ( all done beautiful , now I can smell the car freshener ). I also have had fitted the door laser projectors , when the front doors open it projects a small white circle with the jaguar logo on the ground .very cheap and easy to fit. If you are interested they can be bought on ebay. roughly 11-12 pounds plus you get a small drill bit to drill the exact size hole in the door panel. I have not got power mirrors or at least , I think I haven't so this is the next thing that I would like to fit . I am wondering if these can be easily fitted if I bought 2 of the power folding I have posted on one of the threads asking about this . I hope to speak with you in the future cheers Mally.
  17. Hi Gentlemen , I am new on here and I have bought my first S type 2.7d se . it has most of the extras , sat nav , memory seats ect but I would like to retro fit power folding mirrors . I don't think the ones fitted are power, I have tried the normal things like cleaning and spraying wd-40 and nothing so presuming they are not power. How easy / hard is it ot retro fit please. Thank you, Mally. sorry it is a 2007 .
