Jaguar's XK8 achieves what others attempt
The simplicity of its fluid lines and sensual curves grabs the eye and
accelerates the heart. This is a timeless design that will outlive us

complex. Unfortunately auto manufacturers take the position that
diagnostic codes are proprietary and only their dealers may have access
to codes' meanings.

I had to call out the AA (Automobile Association) for some road-side
assistance today.
Driving along I had the ABS light come on, and then the ECM warning
light a minute or so later. The AA man plugged his analysis computer in

I have a strange intermittent problem with my parking light.
I can start my car in the morning and go to work, it takes me
about 15 minutes. At all the time there is parking light and tail
light. Then if I drive again after 1 hour, 30 minuets or five minutes,

I need to put in a new radio as the origional is working less then
half the time. Question is is there a wire harness adapter availaible
for Jaguar ?  Or does someone have the wire color codes as to which

My wife just purchased a 2003 X-type and we are getting used to all of the
features. It has the Multi-CD changer and apparently we need a Jaguar

Morning all, from Stinking Hot Australia! (not that I'm complaining)
Bulb failure messages!  There have been so many threads about this or

might be useful to bring the info to date together once more and seek

My wife drives a 05 X-Type 3.0 with the sport package - Black with Lt.

beautiful car, actually my dream car, and the mechanic during
pre-purchase inspection said it had been excellently maintained. But
lately, as the season has changed and it has become colder- the engine

AGH!  I am so fustrated!  I had an independant jaguar shop replace and
rebuild my differential on my 91 XJ40.  5000 miles and $2400 later it goes
bad.  Had him look at it says all he could do was knock off 3 hours of
labor.., a whopping $240!  Then had the audacity to request $20 ...

I am trying to make a new thread to get this stuff out of the "Second
Differential" thread. Sorry, I should have done this in the first place.
Here are the posts so far (copied from the Second Differential thread:

Have an 2003 S-Type R.  Wonderful car except for one thing.  Light braking
causes a fairly loud squeal.  Dealer said it's common with Brembo brakes and
applied a compound (spray I think) which worked but for only a few days.
Anyone know of a better more permanent solution?

Hello Jaguar people,

I own a 1988 XJ6, 3.6L, 6cyl. The blower motor only works on high. Would it be a relay, the switch or the blower motor?
