hi its hit and miss, unfortunately, some people get problems, some don't I've had my S-type R for 6 years and never had any problems what so ever, though its well looked after the electric park brake works really well, you just apply it and pull off when required and it releases itself these cars are getting old now so lack of maintenance can be a issue but try it at least a dozen times, big problem can be a low battery that can cause issues, also damp in the boot can make the park brake module fail cheers Joe

Welcome to the club, Ian. I take it that AGR valve is the EGR valve. I had the same when I first got my s type [2013 years ago]. My s type has a two EGR valves and early on I found that when the engine light came on a did give the V6 engine a bit of a blast. I soon found out that a better way of curing the Sticking EGR valves was to use premium diesel and every other fill up the introduction of an additive [Millers Oil Diesel Power ECO Max] which only costs about £12 for about 6 months usage. It has never failed me! Regards, Peter.

i had my engine management light go on today in my x-type,took to garage for diagnostic reader check.it was a sticking agr valve,which he cleared by driving the car hard,for a few miles,he told me not to use supermarket fuel all the time because it lacks the additives to clear diesel soot, and to use bp or shell ets about a third of fill ups

Jaguar's need a good Battery and a Ctek maintainer charger is worth investing in, connecting the Red + Cable from the Ctek to the Positive + on the Battery and the Black -- Cable from the Charger onto the Chassis. Some owner's keep the Ctek connected to the Battery until they need to use the car.
