  1. Hi Mark, it sound to me, and I don't know for sure, but it could be a fuel filter problem, I'm only guessing of course. Have you run the car ''low'' on fuel at all at anytime?? When I say low, I mean, only around 50 - 70 mile range left in the tank?? If you have, its possible debris might have been dragged into the fuel filter and clogged it, hence the poor idle and stalling ....... but its only a guess on my part.  Hope this might help??

  2. Hi there Peter, I for one would be very interested in another meet up, as it was just sooooo good yesterday!!!! I did pop into Swansway and thank them for their hospitality, and breakfast etc, am quite sure a note from your good self would go down very well indeed with them :w00t::w00t:

    I think any ''soot'' that may have been in / around the DPF has now been well and truly dispatched, a 303 mile round trip, and worth every millimetre of it.

    Many many thanks again for arranging it all for us Peter,

    Very Best Wishes,

  4. Hi there Peter, 

    Wow, thats great, and I for one would just like to say Thank you so much, for all the time and effort you have put into organising this for all of us here, I'm so looking forward to it, and to meeting other J.O.C members / Jaguar fans .... 

    Very Best Wishes,

  5. Hi there you guy's, Shell V-Power has a higher ''cetane rating / number'' than its ordinary sister fuel, so like petrol with a higher octane rating / number, you get more ''bang'' hence more power, and apparently a cleaner burn, which is good news for the DPF. 

    I also use Archoil 9800 every now and then at tank fill ups, this again, apparently raises the cetane rating, so again, more POWER :w00t::w00t: as well as keeping turbo's and various engine components cleaner for longer :yahoo::yes:

  6. Hi there Peter, I hope and trust you and yours are refreshed from your time away in Dorset?? You said in your comments about Shell premium diesel, would that be Shell V-Power?? I ONLY use Shell V-Power, and my 3.0 XF returned very close figures to yours on a trip from Lincolnshire to Bedfordshire, & return, tho, at one point the fuel computer was showing 51.?? MPG which I didn't think was to shabby at all!!!!

    All the Best me ole mukka,

  7. Hi there again Andy,

    Thats great news, will you be planning on posting any pictures once the work is done ( maybe some before work is done?? ) Those light clusters ain't cheap, I'm led to believe :wacko: 

    Anyway, congratulations on your purchase, I so hope you enjoy, when you do get her back, and, if you do upload any photo's, I can't wait to see them :w00t::w00t:

    Very Best Wishes, Malc W ( Phosphor Blue )

  8. Hi there Paul,

    Wow, she sound's very much the biz to say the least, and she has Intelligent stop / start, mine ain't got that :wacko:  I hope my next one will tho :yahoo: Can't wait to  see some photo's of her, if your planning on posting any?? I know the grey colour you mean, the Jaguar official name for it escapes me for the mo :wacko: 

    Very very Best Wishes to you Paul, keep us posted, when your able, on all thing's Jaguar XF Luxury :yahoo:

  9. Hi there everyone, I'm yet another Saab to Jag man, I loved both my Saab 9-5's, the last one was the Aero Anniversary Edition on an 08 vintage, and while I thought it looked wonderful, and went like a cruise missile, in sport mode, the cheapening of the Saab brand by GM was appalling, in my humble opinion, so I will NEVER EVER buy, or knowingly buy a GM product again!!!! 

    My 1st Saab 9-5 on an X plate ( 2000 ) was a joy, but she was showing, or starting to show her age, so a replacement with the 9-5 Aero ........ Absolutely fine, for the first 18months or so, maybe a little longer, but then silly things like the Xenon headlights flashing when switching  off, and a myriad off other electrical gremlins, that sadly, made me lose much faith in, what had been my pride and joy  .......... Just about ALL the faults I had, in my opinion, I put down to General Motors, and their cost cutting appetite at Saab ..... such a damn shame, and SHAME on them!!!!

    I now have my, in my humble opinion again, my AWESOME Ultimate Black XF, and while I have been very glad of the unlimited dealer supplied 2 year warranty, she has been an absolute total and utter joy, and thats an understatement!!!!!!!

    Best Wishes to you all,

    Ttfn :w00t::yes:

  10. Hi again John, so sorry to read you didn't get a reply from Hatfields Jaguar, as you say, even a brief reply would have been something, i'll ''try'' and follow this up for you when I am there on the 16 / 07 / 2016  .........  

    Yes, at 20mpg, its a bit of a costly drive, but, what a beautiful and serene way to get to work, so I guess somewhere there just ''has'' to be a slightly down side :wacko:

    Best Wishes again,

    Malc :w00t::yes:

  11. Hi there again Bartontiger, please excuse my late reply, been on and off here so much, but not looked properly :wallbash: as I should have!!! Nice one on your new build :yahoo: and of course your Jag, I wonder, is she now all cleaned and gleaming?? 

    I'll be passing Barton on my way to Hatfields Jaguar across the water from you, on Saturday 16th July, around 07:40  ..... the Big Black Cat is in for a major service :wacko:

    Best Wishes,

    Malc ( Phosphor Blue ) :wink1:
