Hi there; I’ve recently decided that I want my car to be a noticeable amount louder, and after a bit of research landed on a resonator delete. I brought it to a muffler shop, and after jacking it up discovered 3 resonators; the first closer to the front, with both exhaust pipes going through it...

Wanted either of the above to give my cat more of a growl to fit 2009 model XK 4.2

On Thursday I just bought my Jag. Paid under 5,000 for it. Was not planning on getting one but it was so clean I could not pass it up. Being 20 years old. And nobody or nothing has been in the back seat at all. Always wanted a Jag and researched the X-Type a little before I bought it. Could not...

Hi everyone, My XF has just started to chug at idle (video from this morning) with a scratching sound from the middle of the car which is also faint in the video (can't hear it from the engine bay). I wondered if anyone has any experience of this? Power delivery of the car seems fine and chug...

When I returned the car after a quick stop I saw a small stream of liquid coming from the underbody, when I checked it seems to be a leak from the exhaust joint but not sure why this may be? it's a 2014 V6, done 20k miles and is my daily, it's was -1° yesterday when I saw the leak and it seems...

Hi, my 3.0 V6 has developed what sounds like an exhaust leak and makes a chuffing sound on startup - particularly when cold. It disappears after a few seconds. also what seems to have developed too is a bit of a hesitation when pulling away from startup. Performance is fine o otherwise. Its a...

Thought I'd run this set of symptoms past the hive mind in an attempt to be forewarned/forearmed ahead of taking the car in to a garage to have it looked at. The car has 145K on the clock. It had a full service only 2.5K miles / four months ago, and was running dandily immediately thereafter...

Hi all, my 2002 3 litre x-type recently failed its MOT on an exhaust leak at the y pipe intersection. Looking at the assembly, it seems impossible to replace it without also replacing the rear silencers as it appears to be a single welded unit. Is there a tutorial for the novice on how to...

I need to fix my exhaust flexible pipe on my jaguar XF 2.7D, any suggestions?

Hi all. Bougth a 2009 Jaguar XKR 4.2 some months ago. Absolutely love the look of theese cars. Driving experiance is good to. Was going to by a audi RS6, but after looking at one of theese there were no turning back. It has not been problem free however :-? Bougth the car from a Jaguar...

A while back I started chopping the exhaust off to make way for a Custom, single exit exhaust for the 3.0 V6. I chose single exit as the V6 exhaust, goes from the 2 manifolds, to a single pipe, and back to 2 exit pipes. The twin exit does give a nice rumble. But it's extra weight and with a 2.5"...

Had my exhaust or what jag like calling it silencer replaced. In total was £1240 plus vat. Had jaguar approved warranty 2 years. Car 2014 only had 1 year, but wouldn’t cover this under A warranty. Anyone else had issues with this with an f type s? Apart from that the car is sick 🤢 yet classy

I have searched the forums on this topic, and found similar conversations, but nothing exactly the same so apologies if this covers some topics again but it might help others. I have an 07 xk na 4.2 - four years into ownership. Like I'm sure most will agree, its a lovely car (little part of me...

The roads are so bad now that my rearmost exhaust mount on the passenger side has snapped! See picture. Just a quick check, the part of the frame that has snapped is steel, not aluminium? I am planning to borrow an arc-welder and try welding it back up!

Good evening gents, Just test drove the XK i purchased and will be deliver from Nevada to LA this coming thursday. Love the car and got an amazing deal on it. The one thing i really want to upgrade is the exhaust system both for performance and sound. I have research online and seen quite the...

Hi, I'm new to this forum so apologies if I'm posted in the wrong place. I have a hole in the mid-section of my exhaust pipe, have bought a new section (from SNG Barratt) and I'm intending to replace it tomorrow. However, I realised that the new pipe didn't come with any new gaskets. Does any...

Hi guys - i'm looking at upgrading my exhaust system on my xkr 2009. Has anyone upgraded to the Quicksilver SuperSport exhaust system? If so, what do you think? http://quicksilver-exhausts.myshopify.com/products/xkr-and-xkr-s-5-0-super-charged-exhaust-system-2009-on?variant=2084962945 Or can...

Hi everyone. When I first bought my S type R, I didn't even think much of the mileage my car gets. However, now that I have been comparing with other STR's, my mileage is pretty bad. On a good day my car marks my mileage as 10.2 miles per gallon. My car will use up a quarter tank just traveling...

HELP! Something very strange happened this morning. As I opened my door this morning to my S type R, I noticed visible fumes coming from the cabin. At first I thought it was just warm air from inside the cabin mixing with the cold air outside. Doing so I climbed inside the cabin, as soon as I...

Hi everyone, I have been thinking about getting my exhaust done for a while now and I have been wondering about whether I should run Magnaflow Hi Flow Cats or whether I should just go Catless. I wouldn't mind going Catless, Thing is I havnt really seen that many Catless S type R's as most of...
