############Deutscher Text weiter unten!#### I bought the Jaguar S-Type 3.0 V6 in Emden in mid-January 2022 with "TÜV new" and the seller's statement that he was not aware of any damage or accidents. The TÜV report showed only minor defects. Lighting and old tires. At that point, I was just...

I bought a Jaguar S-type recently (yay 🙌) and they only came with a pair of 16 inch wheels with a pair of winter tires on em. I'm thinking 17-18 inch should look a lot better? Please share your experience trying different rims :D Would love to see everything for reference (as well as your...

Hello everyone I'm trying to remove the driver seat switch panel (the entire plastic panel on the side of the seat) from my 2004 S-Type. I tried to do it according to the instructions of the workshop manual but the panel remains stuck. I removed the two screws that hold it in place but there is...

I got P0191 error, Fuel rail pressure (FRP) sensor error. I haven't tested yet with IDS. Where is the location of this sensor and what would be the testing procedure for it? I have replaced the fuel filter with MAN unit about 2 months ago, and I presume fuel pump runs fine. I would like to...

Firstly, before any of the 'the search function is a fantastic tool' (I have looked and looked and on other websites) Is it a straight swap changing s-type engines from 2.5 to 3.0? I have read about the need to change ecu and re programme it. but what about inlet manifolds, alternator...

Dear gentlemen Three days ago I became an enthusiastic Jaguar owner for the first time - I just love my S-type :-) It's a 2004 2,7D and has "only" done 295.000 km (185.000 miles). Gearbox oil/filter/oilpan has just been changed. Problem: when using cruise control (and only when using CC) it...

Hello everyone I have just bought a 2004 S-Type 3.0 V6. The indicator stalk doesn't always cancel automatically. I did some tests and I noticed that when the car is stationary and I use the indicators, the canceling always works. It doesn't matter if I'm turning the steering wheel quickly or...

Hi people I've been a grateful reader of this forum for a while now, and the helpfulness and expertise of some of your members is unbelievable. You've helped me a lot. But I have a simple question here that I can't find an answer to, so maybe you can help again? The car runs fine now (at...

Ladies and gentlemen, My S-Type had a catastrophic fluid leak from one of the rear calipers. It was so bad that all (or nearly all) brake fluid leaked out when the car was parked for a while. I replaced the caliper and both rear discs and pads (they were due), refilled the fluid and bled the...

Most S-Types that I have seen have issues with rear window upper chrome (or black on STR) trim. What happens is that the lower window seal pushes upwards, and disconnects the trim, often breaking the clip. Additionally, the clips seem to be made from solidified bird dung; they are just about...

I've just installed a reversing camera into my Ex UK RHD 2005 S-Type Diesel, VIN starting with N4 using the Car Solutions RGB Basic Interface and an Auto-Vox CAM1. I see the reversing camera whenever I select reverse regardless of the screen mode. Here's a few pointers - Camera Install notes...

Hi all, Lately there has been some weird diesel-like rattling noise come out from my 2002 3.0 v6 automatic petrol S-type. The noise barely gets through to the inside of the car (although sometimes I can still hear it fantly), however it can be clearly heard if windows are pulled down and...

Hello all, After 7 months of a nicely paced sill and chassis restoration, and full suspension rebuild project to my 2004 X-type 2.0D saloon, it was a pleasure to put it back on the road. Just days after, the pulley and clutch on the aircon pump/compressor sheared and recoiled back with the...

Dear members, my S-Type 2.7 D loses a lot of cooling fluid. After I opened the bonnet, I noticed that there is a hose lose - I believe it is the intercooler hose. I attached a photo to the link and I hope someone can tell me whether it is the intercooler pipe or not. I apologize for my grammar...

Hello I am currently having an issue with my drivers seat. It will not move, up,down, forwards or backwards. The lumbar support still inflates, when I press memory recall buttons the steering wheel still moves into position but seat does not move (Mirrors do not move either but I had to replace...

Oh why didn’t I do this before... bought myself my first Jag. 2000 S-type pre facelift. Executive with all the goods. Wonderful car. More than enough power, a chassi that fits both autobahn and twisty roads. A lovely daily driver. With lots of smiles per gallon. Fantastic build quality. Doors...

Hello everyone! I am from Saskatchewan Canada and drove a 2002 SType 4.0 when I was 17 but sold it because I had moved and it wasn't practical in the town I was going to. But I have now realised how much I really missed my Jaguar and will be hopefully getting another S type sometime this summer...
