    Hi chaps. It's mid October and it's getting colder. As you might expect, I've noticed some small changes to the way the car sounds on startup and the way it performs on the road, but this issue is something i can't say I've experienced before. For the past couple of days during my daily commute...

    Few days ago while accelerating on the highway the car just juddered and I got the blinking heating coil on the dashboard. The engine spun normally and I could catch speed, but there was no turbo pull. The problem goes away when I turn the car off and on again, but appears again after few hard...

    My glow plug light flashes and goes to limp mode when under hard acceleration in 3rd 4th and 5th. When I use shell standard diesel it happens just over 3000 rpm but if I use shell nitro plus it pushes it back to about 3500 but only going up a hill. I can creep past 3k tgen put my foot back down...

    Hi guys. Does the 2.0d x-type share a gearbox with the mondeo, if so what is the model? Mondeo gearboxes look pretty much the same but sell for half the price. Is the box Jag specific? Cheers.

    Hi guy's My 2004 X type suddenly developed a very heavy misfire on the motorway. Every time it held back, black smoke could be seen behind, so over fueling. Pressing the throttle just made it worse. Got it home driving very gently. At home on the drive it starts fine hot, or cold, idles fine...

    Good evening all, I am new to posting on is forum, however I have found much of the information on here incredibly informative and a life saver for some of the smaller issues I've had with the X. So thank you all! i have now ventured into the unknown for me and need help - I don't think there...

    I just left work a couple of hours ago, got into my car ready to head home (2005 2.0D X-Type Sport Premium) and stalled the car twice. I didn't really think *that* much of it, just made sure I gave it a little more power next time around but the car was very, very sluggish and to get it to move...

    Hello I have a x type 2007 2.0D and it has started to make a rattle noise( quite loud) when the aircon is running. When I turn it off the rattle disappears until aircon is turned on again. could this be the aux belt tensioner I have heard about or something to do with the aircon itself. ps I...

    Right, replaced the alternator on my 2.0D at the weekend (due to battery light coming on followed by electrical burning smell and whirring noise from alternator). Not too bad a job to do really, but would recommend using this tool from Laser to remove/refit the auxiliary belt: Laser Tools 5208...

    Got in the car this morning and all was well (got the usual "DSC System Fault" message on start up which then clears after a couple of seconds, but it's done that for the last 30 or 40k miles!) After driving about half a mile, the battery warning light came on the dash. There also seemed to be a...

    Hi everybody, first time on the forum, hope I get this right.. I have a 2005 X Type 2.0D 138K on the clock which is the most economical car I have owned, I get 60 + mpg on a motorway run and average 40 around town, engine noisy at tickover but smooth driving.. I have started getting an...

    I have a '56 plate SE with about 80k on the clock - we've had it from about 4 months old as a ex-Jag demo car. A good while ago it would occasionally have a warm start problem - starting but sitting at about 400 to 500 rpm and ignoring the throttle. A restart worked fine and all was OK again...
