I have the restricted performance on my xf. Like the old limp mode..i can drive okay one day. But if this comes on. You can't use the car. As anybody had this and what is the problem likely to be.. I've not done any diagnostics on it yet.. Is it an easy fix or could a bigger expensive problem to fix. Kind regards Ian

I have been musing on what preventative work would be advisable (or indeed essential) in terms of undersealing or similar treatments (such as Lanoguard or other market leading options), especially as we are moving through autumn into what is likely to be another wet winter. I would therefore be interested to get recommendations for my car, and what treatment(s) other owners have gone for, and indeed any recommended specialists who could undertake the work.

I found my I Pace suspension too hard and unable to cope with local potholed roads, and bought a set of German alloys with Michelin Latitude touring tyres which do improve the ride. Having now sold the car (with its original Jaguar wheels) I now have a set of 4 Dezent TA Silver / dark alloys with the tyres, which have done only c. 3000 miles. Any reasonable offer considered.IMG_1370.HEIC IMG_1368.HEIC

Good Evening, My car is a 1989 XJ40 which I bought last December, since then I have only covered around 500 local miles and whilst I have generally enjoyed everything about the car there is one issue which is really annoying for me. I find the front seating, especially the drivers far too low to the floor! Now I am a tall guy around 6ft but I have long legs and a shorter upper body. The car does not have electric seats and I believe that if it did my problem would have been solved because they w

Having fitted a new battery to my 2007 X150 xkr I attempted to reposition my seat by the memory button, the seat back would only keep reclining and is now horizontal, the passenger seat wants to do the same. I've tried hard reboot neg off the battery to the pos still on the battery, no good. I've tried both terminals off the battery held together , no good. I've taken fuses 9 and 18 out forb10 seconds and replaced, no good. I've tried to delete the dtc's with my scanner a "thinkcar" unit, no go

Hi Le Bassiste, Did you ever register your XJS, if not let me know and I can guide you. I run a Jaguar Garage in France. Won't say where as I don't want to be accused of advertising. Just drop a comment on this thread. You do not have to do anything with DVLA, but I will elaborate if you are still in the mire. Good luck.

I also owned 7 SD1s, 5 of them V8s but none were a Vitesse or VDP EFi, all were carbs. Fabulous cars in general but as you rightly point out, let down badly by rust prevention. Always fancied an XJR, looked at an XJ40 based one many moons ago but it was a n/asp 4.0 so wasn't really any quicker than my 3.6 XJ40 that i owned at the time. Now of course they're supercharged so would have been quicker. Hope you get a good price for your XK8, if i had the money, time and most importantly, space i'd make an offer but sadly i don't. Thanks, my arm was actually better yesterday but other circumstances kept me from the back end of my S Type. Hoping to make progress soon!

I would recommend iCarSoft a UK made scanner and can put 10 different makes on there. Handy if you have other cars in the household aside from your Jaguar, I use one and can manage to resolve most issue with it - works out around £110 for the 10 makes version and can regularly update via the internet

I have a regular engine warning light appearing saying the engine is running lean but repeated checks have not uncovered any fault. I am thinking of buying a reader so I can cancel this specific fault warning if it reoccurs. Any recommended type of OBD reader best for an S type?

I know what you mean regarding older cars, I owned a a 1983 Rover SD1 Vitesse 3500 EFI for 27 years, it never let me down mechanically, unfortunately the body couldn’t help itself falling apart from the dreaded rust. In all fairness I have owned the XK8 for 8 years, and it’s the first time that it has refused to start. I have a 2003 XJR now, so the XK8 has got to go, I think it knows that which is why it’s refusing to start 🤷♂️Hope the arm is better soon. Cheers Martyn
