Better looking headlights
The Jaguar XF just has to be one of the best-looking cars on the road today and I'd say they get better with age. Evidently Jaguar felt differently, hence the tweaks and trim changes between the Mk1 and Mk2. I would have preferred a Mk2, but my Mk1 had such a phenominal service history, was going so cheap, and was so pretty to look at, I was smitten. The only feature that I wasn't exactly enamoured with on the Mk1, was those 'glaring eyes' and I'm by no means the first to cast doubt upon the 'pr

Central locking
There is a function that auto-locks the doors at about 4mph but given you had your head under the bonnet, i'm guessing the car was stationary. Only other scenario i can think of is you had the fob in your pocket and accidentally pressed the lock button or perhaps the security system didn't recognise the drivers door having been opened and autolocked 30 seconds after being unlocked. I always open the drivers window so that if anything untoward such as this happens, i can still switch it off and get the keys. I would check to make sure it shows drivers door open on the message screen on the dash when you sit in it with the engine running. If it doesn't, investigate the drivers door switch as this would be the most likely cause.

2014 XF x250 Front Bumper
Give AAH a try on 07404 789229 - i've just bought a rear subframe for my 99 S Type from them and it was delivered by a friendly guy who runs an X Type estate and an XJL. From what he said, the supplier won't sell rubbish and the condition of this subframe bears that out.

Central locking
Not sure why it did that and how it did that - many years ago Mercedes used to do that as it used a vacuum system but if it had even a small leak then it would do that. For the central locking but Jaguar (as far as I know do not use vacuum, but electric). Maybe some other members may have experienced this or know how the system functions to enable you to diagnose it further Let us know how you get on with it

Oil change for xj 3.0d
Hi all have now owned the xj for almost 5 mths . Planning on an interim oil change. The car was serviced in may when I bought her but has now done about 3.5 -4k miles since planning on an oil only change before the winter sets in. Has anyone used torotec oil. Looks to have a good review online especially with the landrover community and a few jag owners. Oil will only be in car till next may when she will have a b service at Mister matic here in Swansea so need a correct spec oil but not at a silly price as realistically by may she will only have done about 8k in 12 mths . Any advise
