Jaguar Owners Club

Welcome to the club and the wonderful world of Jaguar! Regards Trevor

Welcome to the club Steve...and of course, the wonderful world of Jaguar! Regards Trevor

Welcome to the club John I used to own an XJS without a reverse gear...I used it for about a year by just driving into parking spaces that I knew I could drive straight out of without reversing...although I did forget a couple of times! Regards Trevor

Hi Robin it should be okay to back-flush the heater matrix and see what comes out. Once you have done that....bleeding through the hoses either by way of a bleed valve or loosening the hoseclips allowing coolant to flow out...be careful, will be bloody hot!

I will look into that Peter and hopefully get back with a solution for you

Hi guys, Last week we launched our new magazine as a new way to flip through our news articles, photo galleries, videos and forum posts. Check it out here: http://flip.it/5CsXN We'd love to hear your feedback! Is it any good? How could it be improved? What would you like to see in the next issue? Cheers!

Come on guys you have until tonight to get those answers in! :) Worth a go to save a few quid on your insurance!

I imagine Jaguar can add most options post production...usually need coding in if its electronics though

Sometimes a reboot is the only answer !

Sounds like a anti-roll bar link that's worn to me?

Great looking car! Good breakdown of car review as well....very useful !

Welcome to the club Clive Look forward to seeing you posting on here. Regards Trevor

Hi Dan...and welcome to the club ! We are looking to put on some gatherings throughout the country once the weather improves a little bit :( Look forward to seeing your posts and hopefully pictures of your Jags? Regards Trevor

Hi Mark....and welcome to the club ! They are a recreation of the legendary E-Type and very well produced by the look of it. Found this link http://www.challenger-owners-club.co.uk/ also http://www.mattscarsandbikes.co.uk/COC/page2.html Regards Trevor

Hi Mike and welcome to the club ! Firstly, check the engine oil and if it stinks of petrol and is really thin then cylinder washdown has occurred and you will need to change the oil to build up the cylinder compression when it turns over. This usually happens if the car isn't used much and the engine is only really turned over occasionally and used for short distances. Let us know how you get on Regards Trevor

Hi Phil...and welcome to the club ! Glad to see another techie on the site....useful knowledge to impart when the Jags start playing up! Regards Trevor

The winner will then be decided and we will announce the winner the following week. Good luck!

Hi Ding....welcome to the club ! I can't say I have come across a blanking plate for this application but could you not reseal it back in with silicon? Othewise I would imagine a breakers yard for the replacement parts may be your only other option. Regards Trevor

sods law...well at least you can sort a problem that may have been a roadside issue later on

sway bar and anti roll bar are the same component. its worth getting the bushes at £23 and getting the garage to replace them

Can't find a tutorial on YouTube but should be straightforward, just ensure that you have plenty of trays around to capture the coolant, etc. Anyone done this job before?

another very good question...think I would go with the E-Type though

Different MAP sensor David. Unfortunately this one will not help with your fault. Is the disc the correct way round when inserted? Maybe worth cleaning it as well

GUIDELINES for encounters with white BMWs, Mercedes and Audis have been published by the Department of Transport. Chasing you through your nightmares The vehicles, which are usually to be found in the third lane of the motorway approximately 1⅜in from the car in front, have been officially classed as a natural hazard. A spokesman said: “Obviously anyone who drives a white car is an arsehole, and anyone who drives a German car is an arsehole. These drivers, therefore, are arseholes squared. “When they come up behind, don’t move out of their lane too quickly. That just makes them angry. But wait too long and you’ll hit them as they undertake you. “On country roads, where it’s impossible to move out of the way, if they flash their lights we advise calling a whiplash injury claims specialist immediately. “If they sound their horn, call your loved ones and tell them how grateful you are for the time you’ve had.” There are also new guidelines for dealing with drivers with “Daddy’s Little Princess” or “Powered by Fairydust” in their rear windscreens, which boil down to ‘Ram them before they ram you.’ Julian Cook, the driver of a white BMW 5 Series, said: “I don’t hit cyclists on purpose. It’s just that I have a special anti-poverty tinted windscreen that makes them invisible. “The car also has automatic sensors that shout abuse at any pedestrians I almost run over, which is incredibly useful because I’m usually on the phone. “And my car isn’t white. It’s Glacier Ibis.”
