  1. S-Type (X200, X202, X204, X206) 1999 - 2008
    Did anyone use, or pondered using waterless coolant for superchaged cars? The boiling temps for the waterless coolant is 190+ ºC and it goes to -40ºC. Supercharged cars really tax the cooling system, so I was thinking this could be a very sensible upgrade. EDIT: here is a link...
  2. S Type Stickies
    I thought I would tackle this subject as airlocks are common and difficult problems to fix, and it's turned out to be another marathon. There are 3 procedures in the Workshop Manual and no two were alike. We subsequently found a separate procedure for the Supercharged STR and added that too...
  3. XK8 / XKR (X100) 1996 - 2005
    Hi Guys Just wondering (sorry if that has been asked loads) how hot is the engine supposed to get? I have changed thermostat and housing, flushed and replaced coolant and burped the system to avoid any air trapped. After driving the car the fans act normal, no rise in the temp on the dash and...
  4. XK8 / XKR (X100) 1996 - 2005

The next thing on my list is the leaky Norma connectors. My best bet seems to be to just splice some new...
  5. XJ-S / XJS 1976 – 1996
    Hi, I'm new to the XJS world so please bear with me. I'm thinking of fitting a Kenlowe electric fan on to my 1989 V12 XJS to improve it's efficiency, increase speed of engine warm up etc. I'm toying with the idea of a single 14" electric fan, but would rather have the twin 12" fan as it...
  6. S-Type (X200, X202, X204, X206) 1999 - 2008
    I've tried searching the forum but couldn't find a detailed (idiot's) guide on how to bleed the cooling system on a 2.7D. The car has had a new timing belt and water pump fitted and the garage advised that it might take some time to clear the air bubbles out of the system. I drove it 70 miles...
