Hi all, Bit of a long shot, but would anyone be able to give me the name or possible part number for this pipe? It needs replacing and I've seen it mentioned in the forums before but can't find the thread it was in. Apparently they are a common part to need replacing and causes a slight, dull...

Hi guys, I need to replace my rear sway bar bushes. I would love to do this without dropping the subframe (such a pain for such a cheap bush). I was able to fit my hands through and replaced it on the right hand side, but on the left hand side there is the brake pipe in the way, so access is...

Hello! Im looking for tail lights for Jaguar XF (X260) My car was for U.S market, so I’m wondering - is there any differences between EU and US market in case of tail lights? I know headlight has orange reflectors at the US market and it’s white for EU. Any help? Thank you!

'Aight guys. After getting a a hefty quote of near £500 to get my corroded radiator replaced, I set about sorting it myself. Here's a photo guide of how I did it, to spare anyone else all the rummaging and studying I had to do: (Several posts due to upload limit, if that's cash?) N.b Read...

Hi! I want to buy a replacement glove box for my 1998 Jaguar xkr, but does anyone know if it comes with a key? Or if i need to replace the lock body? Or maybe if the key is universal for the glove box? On my current glovebox the plastic piece has broken of on one side and i cant get it back...

2003 jaguar s type 4.2 fuel injector replacement :-( Is this a job for the home mechanic? Any tips on where to find a "How to"?

Hi guys and girls. Last night i managed to snap my locking wheel nut key, and frustratingly spent a couple of hours smashing away at my keyboard looking for replacements... there's a whole hoard of used and full sets... generally you only want 1 for your vehicle. I couldnt find the one i...

Hi I am looking for help and advice on how I can either locate replacement or reconditioned HID compatible headlight units (both sides) for my X400 / X-Type as the adjusters are broken and new prices from Jaguar is outrageous.. I have only just received it back as a stolen recovered but...

Hi all I previously posted a thread about my HID headlight units not self levelling and I have now found the problem after I fitted H1 LEDs into the main beam which looks superb. The mechanism at the bottom of the lights inside has stopped working and looking at YouTube this is quite common...

I've replaced a cracked original passenger side mirror glass with what turned out to be a pattern part bought in haste - which has got a small dimple in the middle of it which impacts its usefulness to put it mildly. (Not sure if it was already there or I created it in the big faff installing...

I need to replace shocks on my X-Type. I noticed she is not as stable as she should, and there are 180.000 Km on the clock. What should I replace with shocks? I presume I don't need to replace bumper stoppers, but what about front shock upper assembly? Any info appreciated!

I'm new to XK8 ownership and excited to get my 1997 convertible on the road and into good shape. Like a lot of XK's with 100+K miles, the driver's leather seat is torn and beyond repair. Looking at the 2 front seats, they seem perfectly symmetrical, except for the electric seat controls. My...

Apparently I am supposed to consider myself lucky in not having to have the battery changed on my X-Type since I bought it in 2002. Recently the car has not started properly at random times. It might be first thing in the morning, or after driving 40 miles and stopping in a petrol station and...

Ive seen these on ebay, are they any good? Anybody bought them to replace theirs?

Hi all, I'm new here. We are looking at buying an X-Type in the next week and it will be a bottom of the market, 3.0 V6 as a cheap winter hack and maybe beyond if we get on with it (which I think we will). I'm handy enough with the spanners to do most stuff myself, and so I will be replacing the...

Hi, I have a 2007 2.7D S-type fitted with Xenon HID dipped beam units. The near side one has failed. My service agent (not a Jag franchise but someone who specialises in servicing Jags) tells me that it it is not the bulb that has failed, nor the ballast igniter. Instead he says it's the...

Hi, The automatic gearbox on my 1999 S-Type 4.0 eventually gave out completely, firstly not going into 4th or 5th and then lost drive altogether on its last journey. I managed to get it to move by shifting to Neutral and back and it will move up and down the driveway but I haven't had the...

I need to replace my fuel tank, however OEM ones are hard to come by and expensive. Does anyone know the dimensions of the OEM fuel tank? Also, I'm looking to fit a Mercedes W124 (1200x600x400) as a replacement, will this fit and if so are there any issues associated with putting this in?

My 1999 S-Type 4.0 V8 has recently developed a Gearbox Fault. The gearbox won't change down to 4th or 5th gears and once up to temperature the message appears on the dashboard. I have taken it to a gearbox specialist and they have reported that, along with the mentioned fault, the box is...
