Indeed! Thanks.

When jag try to empty £700 out of my pocket I get a bit grumpy!

Is this part no the correct one JDE28658 or is it C2P20587? If anyone knows I’d be grateful.

Hi My XKR MY2010 (coupe) was driven ever so gently into something immovable with the immediate result of causing the whole lot to fling the towel in; one out all out, which seems a bit much. There is a small dent about 2” below the left centre rear sensor. It’s quite difficult to see how that might ...

I removed and replaced the LEDs. The "how" is here

Hi

I have a MY2010 XKR and enough of the LEDs have failed to be at risk of failing its MOT. The Jag replacement cost is obscene but the LEDs themselves cost pennies. Has anyone replaced the LEDs?

No luck. The Jag paint shop Initially offered a ludicrously expensive option of replacing the metal from the wheel arch to the roof. After some persuasion arrived at a make-do-and-mend but that still costs nearly £1,000. Now seeking help from MX5 body shop who might deal with this rather better. The...

Thanks. Do you happen to know someone who can correct this? Anyone between Oxford and Portsmouth .... Several, some that I know quite well, won't touch it. They seem to think this is the tip of the iceberg.

I have a few rust-like bubbles showing above a wheel arch and a door trailing edge. Is this the paint bond to the aluminium failing or, more seriously, a structural deterioration of the underlying aluminium skin? And should it be corrected as soon as possible? Mileage now 90k Thanks in anticipation....

Thank you. The main dealer has talked to the people who conduct their MOTs and it is not a failure. There are 2 sensors throwing out DTC codes; replacing both requires the front bumper to be removed at a total cost approaching £500. Not having recorded every instance of the warning being given, neve...

The warning has progressed from intermittent to nearly every time the engine runs. Is this a MOT fail, the MOT is due soon?

I hope that helps just a little The difficulty in substituting asbestos is surely well behind us? Whilst struggling to understand why these brakes so comprehensively failed, I came across Eurac one of the leading grey iron foundries of its type in Europe whose technical papers I found quite helpful.

A bad ending. I removed the whole lot and replaced with Jaguar parts. The judder has gone. An expensive lesson.

There ought to be an induction to the JEC with your technical people advising to a broader community not to do what I did.

Thank you both. A bit of an eye opener. I had to be convinced by the independent to fit the aftermarket parts rather than Jag or OEM. I'll have them checked.

Not long ago, June, I replaced the front discs and brakes (with aftermarket products) because they were worn and I was experiencing, not severe but worrying, front brake judder when braking from 70-80mph. The discs are the standard 326mm and the calipers the single 60mm diameter piston; MY06 coupe w...

This might be past it's sell-by date, but, my S type's heating failed with it on full blast. The 2 culprits were either the CCM, climate module behind where the sat nav screen is, or the dual control switch which switches hot water on to either side of the cabin and is positioned somewhere near the ...
