  2. Well after the trouble I have had with my S Type diesel running in restricted performance mode when I came out of hospital I went out and bought a new varta battery but still the same Then on my way to work the other day it just died and left me in the middle of the A6 luckily I am with the RAC so a quick phone call and 30 minutes later the nice man said you have a egr valve down so he blanked  both valves off and it started but that still left it in restricted mode Now my dilemma is should I pay the £ 500 plus and have the valves replaced or now they are blanked off have the EGRs deleted from the ECU at less then half the cost Please any thoughts would be great thanks

  3. Well I have had My S Type diesel now for over 6 months and its been great until now On monday I left her on the drive she was running good had to go into hospital I was there for three days when I came home thursday I thought I would nip back to the hospital in the car with a thank you card and some chocs for the staff So I started her first turn of the key started no probs but then looked down at the clocks and I couldnt believe it Restricted Performance withe orange light I am like WHAT HOW WHY ITS NOT MOVED Surly this cant be anything that bad Please can anyone help and through some light on this THANK YOU

  4. Well its been 3 months and 3000 miles since I bought my lovely Jaguar and I am so pleased with it never been so happy with car before apart from the two little problems it came with No revers sensors and the fact that the remote locking has a mind of its own but I can live without them It runs and drives so well and I do look forward to driving her I would most certainly recommend the 2.7 d to anyone its a lovely car and touch wood I have had no trouble with her at all I am just so pleased with my Jaguar 

  5. Hi Trevor I dont want to put a damper on this but if at some stage this car has had a hydraulic issue It is hard to believe that a bent con rod will be the only damage it could of bent a valve damaged a piston caused the cam belt 

    to slip a tooth or lots more so please be on your guard As for having to take the engine out I would of thought so as you as you will have to take the inlet and exhaust manifolds cam covers and if you dont know witch con rod is bent both heads off with not much room to work I know what I would do All the best Trevor
