Which Owners Handbook Do I Need For 2006 3.0 Petrol S Type?

139 Views 5 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  04str
Hoping someone can point me in the direction of which owner's handbook I need for my father's S Type 3.0, 2006 petrol. He lost the handbook a while back, and as I don't know what the old one looked like I'm having a tough job working out which one I need.

Have looked on Ebay, but details on the listings are virtually non existent. Some handbooks are plain white on the cover with Jaguar's face and words "S-Type" embossed, which I'm guessing are for older models. Others have a picture of the car on the front. If anyone can help tell me which one I need, would be much appreciated.

It depends when in 2006 it was made. This is what Mrs O's late 2006 X206 model came with.





I think the one in JimboV8's link is actually for the earlier 2004.5 to early 2006 X204 models?
Not sure how much difference there is in the text etc, apart from there will be no info or mention of the DPF in the earlier book. Not relevant for a 3.0l petrol, of course :)

Regards,
OW

Many thanks to everyone for their advice. Not quite as straightforward as I thought. The car was manufactured in 2006 and registered in April 2006 - according to the DVLA vehicle check. Hoping this narrows it down a bit.
There's a letter in the VIN which defines Jaguar's view of the MY. If you're fussy get the exact manual(s) but otherwise any near ones will be fine.
