AFAIK the only manual conversion that has been done is by EAPJ in Derby, it's very complicated due to the electronics involved in the ECUs and control modules etc. not exactly a DIY proposition like it used to be a few years ago as without doing something about the electronics the ECUs will think th...

On many cars the light can be illuminated by poor contacts in the steering column. Remembering how often older cars used to suffer poor horn operation (from horn rings which moved with the steering wheel), it's probably surprising that more modern cars do not suffer similar issues with the airbag co...

It's always puzzled me when the mag has details of "The XK Forum Trip to ...." and yet there is never any mention of these actually on the forum and more people on the "trip" than ever post on the forum :? :? Like you it seems to me there is no correlation at all between the REAL forum and the Forum...

Yes each seat is fused separately , the transit fuses are in the fuse box in the end of the dashboard in the appropriate side for the seat it'll be a 30amp

Has the water pump been changed????? early cars are noted for the plastic impeller parting company with the drive shaft, should be changed for a later pump with metal impeller, had mine changed along with the thermostat for £200 at Arun last year

It's just caused by getting in and out of the car, most cars with that style of seat suffer from the same problem, as Nik says Gliptone Scuffmaster works a treat

Strengthening plates for the floorpans, a common problem and an MoT fail, had both of mine welded/plated for MoT at Arun last year for about £150 the pair

Just to expand. All cars built or imported into the states from 1996 were required to have OBD with the connection socket situated for easy access But not all cars exported from the USA had OBD II from '96 :lol: I also have a '97 build Ford Probe V6 made in USA which is OBD I as all UK versions are,...

Actually I think this is the rain hitting the windows and making them vibrate, making the interior sensor think someone has broken in :( My XK has been on long ferry crossings many times in all sorts of rough seas without the alarm going off, the only times it has triggered is outside the house ( he...

Wax won't get rid of water stains just protect them You need to clean the paint, something like Meguiars 3 stage system, 1st stage paint cleaner(like mild T-Cut ) then 2nd stage resin polish then 3rd stage carnuba wax

I think the receiving arial for the remote is at the top of the rear window, it looks like a seperate part of the heater

Glad the instructions worked OK

I thought the convertible rear speaker positions were used for subs when premium sound is fitted

Mine does this sometimes and the dealer wasn't sure whether it was the switch or the solenoid, I think I sussed it today... it wouldn't come out of park getting off the ferry at Portsmouth, with my foot on the brake no high level brake light on, tried again same result, tried again light comes on le...

Thanks Nik - the cubby box..... where is that exactly in the boot?
