  1. Hi Paul, There seems to be a rash of similar issues to yours (and mine!) over the last few days. My car is a 2011 XF-S Portfolio. Initial issue was the red restricted performance, and a gentle hissing sound when (trying to) accelerate. First attempt at a cure was to replace the turbo transfer valve, which was seized, obviously needed fixing, but that didn't cure the main problem. Eventual fix was to replace the inlet manifold cover and associated bits - quite expensive at about £1300, but totally transformed the car! That was also finished off with a DPF regen (included in the £1300!). Car now runs sweet as a nut. Now have an MOT booked for today (fingers crossed!). Best of luck - let us know how it goes! Cheers, Jon
  2. Hi Jim, Try here: https://www.latestsatnav.co.uk/jaguar-7-c.asp Worked perfectly in my '11 XF-S, costs about £30 Cheers, Jon
  3. Hi Marcus, I have a 2011 XF-S, I assume your -R is similar in terms of SatNav (disc drive in the left of the boot). Assuming it has the drive, you can get updated discs from here... Latest Sat Nav - 2019-20 Sat Nav Disc Update & Navigation Maps url I've bought from them several times, always a great service. Cheers, Jon
  4. Sorry, forgot to mention... Crossover valve took a couple of hours or so, Manifold Induction kit took about a day & a half. J
  5. Hi Robert Replacing the crossover valve was £247.60, incl. parts & labour. The Manifold Induction kit was £1331.83, parts & labour (ouch!). But, hey-ho, it's a lovely drive! Cheers, Jon
  6. Hi Robert, I've just been through an almost identical experience with my 2011 XF-S. I don't have a code reader, so can't confirm the exact codes involved, but the effect was similar to what you describe. End result was a new turbo valve, followed by a new cam cover and gasket set, all fitted by my local(ish) independent dealer. Now runs better than ever! MOT on Monday though - eek! Good luck! Jon
  7. Thanks John, Jury is still out! J
  8. HI, Does anyone on here have any experience of a company called WarrantyWise, offering to pay for repairs (up to about £5000 a claim) for a monthly premium - £58 per month according to the quote I have? Haven't gone for it yet (wish I had, currently getting replacement turbo valve, cam cover, etc., and a DPF regen!) Basically, is it worth it? Cheers, Jon
  9. Thanks Clive, Beyond me, but I'll talk to my local indy dealer! Thanks again! J
  10. Hi All, My 2011 XF-S has developed a problem... Screen displays Limited Performance Diagnostic check shows 2 faults... P006A - Manifold Absolute Pressure P1247 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Low Any thoughts on what is needed to fix it gratefully received! Local Indy dealer (where I bought it from) suggests a central turbo valve needs replacing. Any insight gratefully received! Cheers, Jon
