  1. XK8 / XKR (X100) 1996 - 2005
    Hello all, I've looked around for an answer but didn't find anything relevant, so I'm posting this here. My jaguar xk8 1996, which has been pretty well serviced until now, (160000 miles) makes a high pitch grinding metallic sound when accelerating a bit more than usual (like more than half of...

    Hello. Does anybody know how much torque can the stock clutch/gearbox handle? I have ~230 000km on the car. I would like to get a stage 1/chip on the car, so I wondered if it can handle it.

    Hi Gang. Who wants to change their clutch. Not many, and not for fun. Would be heartbreaking if it was changed unnecessarily. I was told when I bough my car that it had a new clutch but there was no paper work. Trade sale, so I drove it about an although it had lots of problems the clutch...

    Yep, I am waiting for a gap in the weather to do my clutch kit and possibly flywheel on a sloped driveway with axle-stands and a jack. Urgh.....

    Johny Jag Pants is back. I've upgraded from my old 2004 SE estate (2l diesel) to a 2008 SE estate with sat nav, quilted leather, all the toys. It's a real cracker, but I bought it knowing that I'll most likely need to sort the transmission. Before I go spending upwards of a grand I'd like to...

    Took my car in today to have current power steering noises assessed. Phone call came afterwards, power steering pump on it's way out. £425. A crushing blow. This was then swiftly followed by a perfect right upper-cut, as I was informed that the DMF and clutch also needed replacing. I hit the...

    The flywheel on my 2004 2.0D X-Type (5 speed manual) it's on its way out, now i'm searching for some good quality replacement kits. What would you recommend? There are at least two brands I have found: SACHS and LUK. Are there any fake kits that should I be aware of? Is this one ok?

    Hi everyone! My xtype jag died on the motorway. Was driving along, just ready to change up from 4th to 5th then it wouldn't go into gear.. I tried to get back into 4th.. nothing! I got over to the hard shoulder and the AA got myself and the car home. It goes into gear when it's turned off. But...

    Hi guys, I am with my X300 (manual gearbox) in Italy. When shifting gear and shortly after I have a rumbling noise. I believe it is the DMF. Unfortunately I am not able to remove the gearbox until I have all spare parts available. To order a clutch seems to be no problem, but the DMF is nowhere...

    Help! - Clutch failed whilst out today, foot to floor with no return, had to get a friend to tow me home. On inspection there is a leak at the union where the hydraulic system meets the bell housing. I am not sure if this is just a faulty connector or if the failure is an indication of a...

    Hi all my 04 diesel x type has developed a problem in that it does not drive anymore. The car will go into gear no problem but as you release the clutch there is no bite point, I can come completely off the clutch and the does not move or stall. Anyone else had this, the car has only done...
  15. XJ-S / XJS 1976 – 1996
    Can any experts advise if you have had the same fault and where to source parts..... My XJ-SC has been in a private collection before I bought it so not doing many miles. On driving for the first few days the manual gearbox was silky smooth. Now it won't get gears. - Standing without the...

    Im glad to be back after 5 Months with no access to the Forum for no reason but lets cut to the chase: My question is regarding the clutch on the 2.2 Diesel models, how much would this things handle regarding Power (BHP/HP) & Torque (Nm) and for how long before you have to replace them...

    Morning all, Been looking about at possible flywheel replacements on my clutch as I think I need a new slave cylinder and it seems that changing the flywheel at the same time is the way to go. So, questions.... Firstly, I've seen people have been changing the dual mass out for a single...

    Hi all, I have been trying to refit the clutch master cylinder pipe after fitting a new one (master cylinder) and it will NOT hold the pipe at all. Just pope straight back out each time. We've had brake fluid pi***ng out as it just keeps coming off. The clip and the small rubber seal are in...

    Hi 2004 x type estate 2d Intermittently, I can not select gears with the engine running. I took it to a transmission specialist yesterday but as soon as he tried it, you guessed it, it was working fine. He couldn't find anything wrong but suggested a fluid change next week. All was good...

    Hi, I was driving home tonight and following some spirited acceleration to pass one of those crawling Yaris things before the 2 lanes merged, I was about to drop into third at about 6k RPM, put my foot on the clutch, struggled a bit to get it out of second and then the was a hell of a lot of...
