  1. Hi Paul Surely if you are in cruise control and you select sports mode it will drop a gear and expect you to take control of the throttle out of cruise control . Frank
  2. Hi Andrew --- You can get an online Hayes manual here if that helps http://www.emanualonline.com/Cars/Jaguar.htm Frank
  3. Hi Paul I quite like it it given the interior a more sporty look and although my sporty days are over and I'm just a cruiser now I think perhaps it will appeal to the faster guys. And I will say in doing it -- it looks to me that you have done a real professional job well done. Frank
  4. Hi Joan It could be as easy as just a bulb that's the problem has it just started doing it or has someone fitted a new bulb recently?????. Frank
  5. Hi Tim it sounds as though your engine rev's on tick over are a little too high ???? Frank
  6. I also welcome you both to the club and my X Type's doors lock at about 3mph as i go down my driveway . Frank
  7. I had third party at one time [ a few years now] then found that there's not a lot of difference for the cost of fully comp . Frank
  8. OK Peter there's always someone I see your your on the ball as usual . Frank
  9. Hi Simon I agree with you on the head-gasket but in past post's David has said the waters not circulating.??? So I think if the thermostat's oK it must be the pump .???? I would have it off and check the impellers because I'm almost sure its plastic or nylon blades and I have known them to fail on other cars .????
  10. Hi --I would say you have a impeller problem with the water pump as it sounds as though the waters not circulating hardly at all.?? If it was a head gasket problem enough to cause this problem it would be over pressuring the system really bad . Frank
  11. Hi Ronnie . Welcome to the club I agree with Peter and I say the colour really suits the car and I think the black is perfect and changing the colour was a good idea. Frank
  12. Yes Peter I thought the same but is Jon's petrol or diesel.?? Frank
  13. I think they are great because in the winter or bad light you can remove them . Frank
  14. Hi My XType - auto- is 2,500 revs @ 70 mph ??? petrol. Frank
  15. Good result there rodney job well done . Frank
  16. I agree- with a friendly club as this no one wants the rules pushed in front of them because they know how to conduct them self's with out that. There must be a reason why someone wants to push things close to breaking the rules all the time WHY.??? Lets keep this friendly and all enjoy the good nature of the club . Frank
  17. Good catch Andy. Frank
  18. Hi David --Sorry to hear of your problem and from my own experience and other owners I would say the first thing to do is check your battery a faulty or low battery will cause all sorts of problems ---Best of luck Frank
  19. Hi David --Looks fantastic and a job well done and I see your making a sure its done right 1st time Well worth it Frank
  20. Hi Peter Welcome to the club I also have a X Type and enjoying the Jaguar feeling don't worry about asking questions we have many friendly members who are too pleased to help each other . Frank
  21. I totally agree with you Peter and Ken when someone joins the club young or old you like to come in nice and gentle at first then after a while get to know the members the layout and then ask a question if you have a problem .???? This is a friendly club lets keep it that way a friendly welcome is the norm not a demand.?? Frank
  22. Hi Darren l would say its the jets or needles Fist of all I would set the jets about the same as each other and quite low and make sure the needles are both in the same slot .??? If you set them to give more fuel and then it over fuels when ticking over just reset again .???? Frank
  23. Hi Denis I would say you have a leaking injector it only takes a small overnight leak to produce the symptoms you are having .??? Frank
  24. Hi Robert Welcome to the club really pleased to have you as a member we are a friendly bunch of Jaguar enthusiasts and I'm sure someone will be on soon to help you --I have a X Type and really love to drive around in my dream car because that's what I've wanted for a few years now. Best regards Frank
