Re: Restricted performance
I have had my 308 back for a week or so coil packs and plugs replaced, took her for a couple of 40 mile runs. The improvement is fantastic so smooth and extra power, it looks like the fuel consumption has improved too. You don't realise over time how performance can deteriorate. Looking forward to t...

Re: Restricted performance
Update: 2 coil packs causing a misfire and a 3rd overheating! New packs ordered and new plugs fitted. This car has done 60K and is 18 years old so I am told that to renew all packs makes sense and the plugs are due to be renewed at that milage.

Daimler 250 dimentions request
Good morning,
I currently have an XJ8, we are moving to a property with a garage that the XJ8 will be a very tight fit! I have always liked the Daimler V8 after my cousin had a BRG one in the 70's. So my question is how big are they inclung mirrors, also any major issues to look for.
Thanks

Scratched glass
A few pieces of grit must have been caught in the rubbers of the nearside rear door glass and has caused scratching. Is there a company that can polish this out or do I get a new glass? If so is the tint standard?

Re: Lamba sensor question
Thank's for that, will pop the car into local specalist to have them checked. I tried the new classic parts site but can't get the prices, can see the drawings but the other fields will not let me fill in. I have logged on and I am a member.
