Jaguar Owners Club

Hi Adam.....welcome to the Club What a great looking XKR and you seemed to have carried out some great mods but still keeping the car looking reasonably stock, which is the best way I reckon. Good to have you onboard!

Open drivers door. Hold the highbeam selector arm towards you. Insert ignition key and key to first position (acc) Release the high beam selector and then pull and release the high bean. selector 4 times. ... Then press the lock button on each remote to program it in.

I believe you should be able to deactivate the alarm through locking and unlocking the door with the key. May reactivate when the ignition is switched on but if the fob battery is sufficient then the fob should deactivate the system.

Hi Alan.....welcome to the Club Always a good time to buy a convertible in my opinion, cheaper than when everyone wants one for the summer! I use my BMW Z3 all winter and put the hood down on a cold (but dry) day, whack the heater up and enjoy the fresh air 🙂 Enjoy the forums and good to have you onboard

Good luck with the resto ! It can sometimes open a tin of worms but just look at each item as an individual job and not as a whole as it can be overwhelming otherwise

Hi David Sorry to hear that you have had to sell your Jag, although it does seem a sensible solution given the circumstances. It is quite common with motorcyclists to sell a particular bike because it is too fast, tall, heavy or many other reasons why you stopped riding it so much over the years. However, it then just makes way for something slower, lower or lighter and then tends to get ridden more often. Have you considered an F-Pace or others within the SUV range? You are more than welcome to visit and add to the forums as you have done so often over the years and have contributed great content and assistance to others. We would genuinely miss you on here if you didn't visit, even though you don't (currently) drive a Jaguar. All the best, Trevor

I believe it should work as I have used memory saver tools in cigar lighter sockets and this back-feeds the onboard electronics to keep the memory (such as clocks. radio, etc)

Hi Mick.....welcome to the Club That is a fine looking F-Type ! I believe the function is there but needs programming in by the dealer I'm sure some members may know a fix which you can do yourself Good to have you onboard!

If I had to get any of my car engines cleaned internally then it would be with Terraclean as they are reputable and have been around for many years. Thanks, have a great Christmas also 🙂

Hi Tim We have sent out some Terraclean vouchers to Premium Members in the membership packs. The Terraclean process is to clean the engine using a water based product which lifts the carbon from the internal parts of the engine that are likely to become clogged with carbon in normal use (e.g. Inlet manifold, throttle bodies, EGR). It is best to check with your local Terraclean agent as to whether they will accept the voucher before committing to their service as it does state on the voucher that some agents may not accept it. Some more information: https://www.terraclean.co.uk/?gclid=CjwKCAiAh_GNBhAHEiwAjOh3ZL4S2QzfBXpYd2TxlSnyxBmWG9vCgb2Za96bFcIQvpG5rjFm4m7TgRoCp9kQAvD_BwE

First, I would check that the bulbs are fitted correctly and sat in the holder correctly. Then I would check the linkages on the suspension as the level would depend on the vehicle loading After that I would look at changing the base setting on the headlamps.....you should see an adjustment screw somewhere on the rear or top of the headlight units

Hi Paul.....welcome to the Club Better late than never.... 🙂 Good to have you onboard!

The colour should be a bright, clear colour as opposed to contaminated opaque colour. Also, if the fluid is contaminated it would also smell burnt The solenoids would come up in fault codes if any issues when scanned

Hi Stewart.....welcome to the Club I would see what information you can gather on the actual fault. If they drop the oil pan on the gearbox then any failure of hardware should be obvious by remains of bearing, clutch bands/plates and also the colour of the fluid and filter. It may just be a solenoid at fault as opposed to a whole new transmission?

Hi Clive....welcome to the Club Superb looking Jag, and sounds like its a proper love affair, I don't blame you 🙂 Good to have you onboard!

Hi Peter....welcome to the Club The Jag is definitely better quality but as you say the drive is probably more fun in the Alfa (just sold a GT and life is a little less fun without it) Good to have you onboard!

Hi Mark....welcome to the Club I owned and worked on a lot of XJ s3 (both 6 and 12 cylinders) in the past and always have fond memories of them. Good to have you onboard and enjoy the Jag!
