I have a 2011 XKR Coupe.

The centre brake light is built into the rear spoiler.

Just above the brake light, there is a growing gap between the light and the spoiler itself as the spoiler warps and distorts - it’s not a huge gap - quarter of an inch perhaps.

A trawl of the interweb has shown this to be an issue for rear spoilers on a variety of other cars (not Jaguar). However, I can’t find any reference to this happening on an XK.

So, has anyone out there experienced this on an X150 please?

Any suggested fixes short of replacing the whole spoiler?

Thank you in advance!

hi,

This isn't an issue flagged to me whilst looking after the Modern XK Forum. I have also checked both the Jaguar parts and maintenance systems in the search for clues, technical bulletins and so on without finding anything relevant. In case something has worked loose, have you tried re-positioning the stop lamp within the rear wing? Mike.

Thanks for the reply - yes, I have removed the light component to see if there is a reason for the warped effect, but couldn’t see one.

Hope that adding a picture of this problem might help...
