  1. XF (X260) 2015 - Present
    Hi, I've been away for 12 days and the car (XF Sportbrake, 2018, 2.0D) was completely dead; even the doors would not open. So I've put the jump pack on it and it set the alarm off, I've then opened with the fob to kill the alarm. Now the doors are open and there wasn't enough oomph in the jump...

    Hi there.. been a long time!. She's been behaving herself for a good while, but now I have a car that is totally dead in the morning. I charged it up for almost a day, and tested the battery with a KONNWEI KW600. Seemed to pass with flying colours (100% result) after various tests. I tried the...
  5. XF (X260) 2015 - Present
    I drive around 400 motorway miles Monday to Wednesday in my car after which it is unused till the next Monday. On my Monday morning drive of 65 miles, the auto start stop doesn't work. From then on till Wednesday it works fine. I feel this is probably due to battery being below a certain...
  6. X-Type (X400) 2001 - 2009
    As the title I parked my X type Estate up around a month ago and when I came to start it at the weekend the battery was completely flat (the locking remote doesn't unlock the doors) so I tried the drivers door with the key and the door doesn't open. Neither key works annoyingly. What are my...

    Hi My 03 XKR's battery died a few weeks ago. I've replaced it as I didn't know how old it was and now the alarm won't turn on. I've got both fobs and I've replaced the batteries in them and given them a thorough clean. Everything else works fine (although the engine management is trying to...

  9. XE (X760) 2015 - Present
    Hi, I recently purchased a 2017 Jaguar XE. Recently I have noticed if I place unbagged groceries in the boot, things like the chocolates and plastic on bottles can melt. I see there is a battery under cover in boot but just wondering is have others experienced this issue and is it normal?! Any...
  10. X-Type (X400) 2001 - 2009
    Hello, I live in Spain but use this Jaguar Forum because it in English and is a very useful resource for information and advice. I have searched the X-Type threads and can´t see any reference to the best battery size (amps per hour and total amps) for an X-Type 3.0 V6 petrol. I have a UK 2005...
  11. S-Type (X200, X202, X204, X206) 1999 - 2008
    Put new battery in my 2001 S-type and now it won’t start. I put key-fog in, turn it and the engine doesn’t start. Everything else turns on. I was searching for answers on google and was getting no where. Do I need to reset battery since it’s a new battery?
  12. XF (X260) 2015 - Present
    Can someone please clarify where the terminals are to charge the battery using an external charger, or to jump start the XF? What kind of maintenance does the AGM batteries need? Do they have the same problem like lead acid where you can't let them drop below 50% charge?
  13. XK / XKR (X150) 2006 - 2014

    Hi all; trying to get to the root cause of a battery drain on the car The battery is good, less than a year old In reviewing the various posts one of the pointers suggested was to check for a "chirp" on locking the door / enabling alarm With the above context, when I remote lock the car with...
  15. X-Type (X400) 2001 - 2009
    Hi, After first working intermittently and then stopping working altogether it took me a while to get round to getting fed up of using the key to lock and unlock the doors and racing to get the ignition turned on to stop the alarm going off after I've unlocked the doors, but today I decided to...
  16. XK8 / XKR (X100) 1996 - 2005
    Hello. Can anyone assist. I bought a Noco 5 smart charger for my XkR100. I may have misheard but someone in the Jag club mentioned only connecting live terminal when using the charger on an Xkr100. I wanted to double check if anyone knew for sure as the chap didn't actually have that model...
  17. S-Type (X200, X202, X204, X206) 1999 - 2008
    Hi, Overnight the Jaguar computer drains my brand new battery. I have taken it to mechanics but they say nothing is wrong with the car or battery. I have to jump start it almost daily. The mechanic said I could disconnect the battery overnight. Is there an easy way to do this??? Please...

    Hi all. I have a 2009 x type 2.2 diesel. The battery warning light every now and again will flash then I can go a few weeks without it coming on at all. I've checked the battery and alternator and they both seem fine. Got good voltage. I've read it could be a problem the positive cable running...

    Hi Folks, Wanted to understand how big of a problem is the below scenario for the dealership to fix? My 2014 Jaguar XF battery died as I left the headlight on for the night. While trying to jumpstart, the car alarm goes on, and the dashboard says "Smart key not found" message when I try to...
  20. S-Type (X200, X202, X204, X206) 1999 - 2008
    Hi Guys I am new to the forum so I hope I don't break any rules! Anyway, I usually buy S-Types (SE Plus), run them for 30k miles and then swap. My latest is a beautiful 53 plate with about 93k on the clock. When delivered it ran perfectly. I then installed my Pioneer Android Auto based double...
