I just got my jag back (1986 XJ6)  and have had it about a week, it
was layed up for about 6 weeks . Now she doesn’t seem to want to run
well, she has no power and almost stalls at traffic lights. Other
times she will run well.

I think I have got a leak on the timing chain cover - it's not bad but
there's a noticable large oil patch which has formed over the last  month on
the driveway.
Is this a massive job?

Does anyone have any experience of exporting a car to Australia ?

Hi everyone,
   I've never posted to the group because, well, I've never owned a
Jag until now! I just bought a 1997 XJR and decided yesterday to
change the oil myself, that is until I tried to remove the oil filter.

Got this part from a boot sale.
Looks like a bonnet badge.  65mm diameter, 12mm thick. Glass disk with
chromed metal surround.  Glass disk has a silver coloured jaguar (animal) in
the centre.  Item has a 'leg' of about 15mm.  Small hole in bottom of leg

I asked earlier and got no replies, so I'd like to ask again--I want
to change the oil in my 1997 XJ6 but have found the oil filter to be
nothing but impossible to reach. Do I have to remove the black metal
support rod that transverses directly in front of the oil filter or is

Hello all, does anyone know if you can reprogram the jag remotes to the car?
I'm thinking of sourcing a second hand one if it can be done.
Thanks

Our 1994 XJ 40 4.0L (86K on the clock and bought one year ago) has had
the characteristic smoke cloud (valve stem oil seals relarted) but over
the last year this has reduced dramatically.  The cars history includes
7 years with only 17K miles inc one year with only 600 miles.  Since ...

I would like to find a resource that would give me instructions as to
inspect the front end suspension on an XKE.
Is the current method applicable? That is, jacking up the right side,
grasping the wheel and jiggling it. Then dropping the right side,

How do remove the coupling plate from inside the extension tube so I can
change the pump shaft front seal ?

Here's a question about a real Jaguar.  When giving my '61 Mark 2 some real
Welly in a left hand (and only left hand) corner, or even a bit less stick
in a left hand corner and I hit a dip or bump in the road, I get this really
loud metal on metal rattattattat sound that I can ...

Four days ago I got my first Jaguar – a 2004 X-Type 2.5 SE Auto. The car was
registered in January 2004, and (with only one owner) has done 41,000 miles
in just 18 months. I bought it (from HA Fox in Southampton) at a very
attractive price. It appears immaculate and all services ...

The inspector said that my '71 XKE fails for the front suspension. He
says it is too loose. It passed a year ago and only has 80 more miles on
it.
At one time, they had to gauge it to prove it was too loose, now the DMV
