Jaguar Owners Club

Keep us informed of how it all goes....hopefully in your favour as well

Hi Alan....welcome to the Forum It could possibly be the Air Con fans not working (e.g. seized) and the system kicking out because of it. Alternatively, it could be the a/c system relay. Had that happen on my Honda CR-V with the a/c relay which then tripped out and also put on the Engine Management lamp. Managed to get a new replacement relay from eBay for about £3 and reset the system which cured it. Let us know what you find

Hi Phil Sorry to hear of your unfortunate dilemma with the dealership and the tainted XF. It tends to leave you with a bad taste that can take forever to lose, if at all. I would definitely return the car to them for a full refund as if they have to remove the dashboard to replace the leaking heater matrix then this can sometimes change the whole feeling of the car by introducing new squeaks and rattles of which constantly remind you of the initial problems. Sorry to add fuel to the fire but it does anger me to hear of some (not all) dealers deliberately palming off problem vehicles to the unsuspecting public. Keep up updated on the outcome

sounds like the sensors need reprogramming to read the current pressures. you would need specialist equipment to carry out this procedure, but shouldn't cost much at a reputable Jaguar specialist repairer.

Sounds like a glitch in the SDD programming...would mention it to the supplier and see if there is an update available

Possibly overheating....is it Xenon?

Sounds like there is a fault door sensor which could be the reason for the discharge. Is the interior light on with the doors closed?

Hi Robert Not sure what gauge you are using to measure the pressures but possibly try one or two psi more in each tyre to see if that switches the light off and if necessary reduce the pressure if it doesn't work. A lot of petrol station forecourt pressure gauges are way off the mark so this could be the reason why the light is on

I would contact your local dealership and request the code....they're normally quite obliging

Hi Pete Sounds a bit obvious so my apologies for this but could it possibly be a faulty SD card? I have had issues with different SD cards that I use in my SLR Camera and always ensure I backup as soon as possible if and when the card corrupts. Maybe worth copying the contents onto another SD card and see how you get on. Let us know how it all goes Cheers, Trevor

Hi Andy....welcome to the Forum Good to have you onboard Cheers, Trevor

It sounds more like a situation of debris or uneven surface on the runners which would automatically bounce down the windows as though there is an obstruction. I have got round this in the past by spraying Silicon spray into the guide runners which the glass runs up and down and this has cured it.

Try looking at ones for the XF but you'll need to cross reference the part number but it does work

Author: Brian Laban (2016) Publisher: Crowood Press Hardback, 12 Chapters, 208 pages Price: £20.95 + £3.95 p&p A very well laid out book detailing the history of the XK range of Jaguars with many black & white and colour photographs, illustrations and supporting data. The Author has successfully covered the range of XKs from the inception in 1948 to the E-Type, with each chapter chronologically detailing the marque and history of the manufacturer’s technological evolution within that era. The Jaguar XK was incredibly successful in racing and this has been covered in detail with particular mention to the 24 Hours of Le Mans race when Jaguar dominated the Motorsport world in the 1950’s. The ‘Racing Cousins’ such as the Lightweight E-Types and the Lister Knobbly have also been covered with sufficient detail without going too in-depth to become a specialist publication of each variation. There are plenty of books available about each of the specialist racing Jaguars to satisfy the enquiring reader’s curiosity. At the end of each chapter is a summary of the specifications of each model from that particular era with technical and performance information. Overall, this book delivers a definitive overview of the variety of XK’s produced over a 22-year span.
