[press666]

i have a s type jaguar 2.5 petrol on a 2004,got a little Oil leak on the engine Oil sump pan,thought it was a easy fix,only to be told it is around  a 6 hour job to replace the sump pan gasket,is this correct,or are the jaguar main dealers pulling a fast one,many thanks.

                  OUCH" :(  :(   i don't have an s type so i cant comment but no doubt one of our s type members will get back to you asap, & to be sure that does seem a lot of book hours for a sump pan gasket, as they only quote 4.5 hours for a full clutch replacement on my x type at a cost of nearly £800 + vat  i went somewhere else job done For £490 supplied & fitted  so shop around mate
