  1. Thanks, Ill more than likely get the pump replaced... just need to get it sorted to get it through its MOT. After that I can change the part for a better part as you suggested. I havent got the Headlamp washers. Thanks
  2. Anyone got a diagram of which one is F12 ?- Its completely different on my autodata... Ive attached an image Thanks all much appreciated!
  3. Drivers footwell or passengers lol... Have had a quick skegg and cant see anything under either but havent got my torch to hand... Thanks for the help, will be having a greater look tonight. I cant see it being a dead pump... They dont just die surely! Hopefully its a fuse! Thanks for the fuse number..
  4. Hi all, Jag due MOT on the 27th and I need to sort out the washer bottle pump or it'll fail! Im looking on autodata at fuse locations.... theres a "facia" fuse box. - Anyone know where this is ? I need to check the fuses for the washer bottle pump. Thanks in advance
  5. Thanks for the info all, yes it is a brilliant car and I rejoice in the power and speed of the thing! Im not moaning about fuel per se, just making sure there isnt an under lying issue. Car is due MOT on the 27th and hopefully will sail though. Thanks all... I do love my S Type!!
  6. Hi all, I have a generic code reader bought off of ebay a while back.. made by vgate. For some reason I cant get mine to connect to the ECU... or it least I think thats the problem. Code reader works fine on my Citroen. I am using the torque tool on my phone to connect to OBD2 with Ignition on in car to AC. I get the icons in the top left flashing but thats it when plugged into Jag. Tried my bosses OBD2 scanner... exactly the same one and his works... albeit i didnt try it on my phone i did it form his. Do I need certain settings to be able to connect to the Jag via torque pro ? OBD Car doctor app is the one I use for the Citroen and that works perfect. I cant get Torque to connect with my Citroen either. My EML has come on again. Thanks in Advance

  7. Hey all, noticed something really cool this morning, fuel needle dropped to hitting just about the red mark, was like that for a while. Then all of a sudden it went up to a quarter of a tank! What A CAR!!! :)
  8. Very true Stan, it is one heck of a motor it turns heads and when I do put my foot down that roar from the engine at about 3000 to 5000 rpm... what a noise...
  9. Hmmmmmmmm.. Fair enough! I just thought I'd get to the 200 mile mark on a full tank lol Thanks
  10. Hi all, Filled up last weekend... Have been doing various trips. Mostly round town at 30-40 MPH but some out of town... 50-60-70 MPH roads... Mainly steady away driving... I usually only put my foot down on the motorways. So only light driving. I've done barely 200 miles.... 187.8 to be precise... And I'm having to fill up! Fuel low light has come on. Didnt realize the 3.,0 would be so thirsty!
  11. Hi all, Anyway of disabling the rear parking sensors ? I dont have the switch in the light console in the roof. Can I unplug the black box in the boot ? Ta in advance.
  12. Mines come loose on the inside it is rather annoying
  13. Hi all, I have access to Autodata program, for vehicles up to 2007. So if there's anything you want to know.... give me a shout! :)

    Fuel!

    AHhh shame I dont have crusise control then, has had a recent service but wont hurt to stick some red ex through. Thanks all.
  17. Hi all, I was hoping my 3.0 V6 wouldnt so thirsty... a 200 mile trip up north and back has used nearly 3 quarters of a tank! I thought... correct me if Im wrong but between 70-80 MPH the revs would be about 1 and a half... I was sitting at 2... 2 and a half, thought the revs would of been a bit lower saving me a bit of fuel and not having to accelerate as much ? Thanks all.
  18. Seems to play them fine but can hear the ticking in the background... does it on originals too. Maybe lazer is starting to go home.
  19. I have a tape player in the front, CD Changer in boot. Don't need steering wheel controls as havent got those, I burnt a new Maxell CD this morning and it skips on every track. Thanks Ill get that kit and have a go at changing it.
  20. Hi, Im told that the mian problem with the 2.7 XF is the DPF is notorious for problems! Have you looked at the XJ, Thats a very nice motor
  21. Hi all, thinking of changing my radio in the Jag, I have a brand new Pioneer in my Citroen which I'm hoping will go in the jag, Ill need a kit similar to the one below i'm guessing ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/370906614480?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT CD Changer in the jag is skipping on brand new CD's - my real question is though How do I remove the current stock fitted radio ? Anyone any ideas ? Thanks in advance
  22. Found it - havent removed it yet as I havent had chance. I have one of these.. http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00MA3HW3I Ive tried torque pro but for some reason wont connect communicate with the car!
  23. Found the MAF will remove later on.... easy fix if it is that! no way of telling without codes!
  24. I've just been to try again to no avail... my phone is paired and my obd2 device works in my Citroën thought I'd try to make sure it's not faulty. . Jump in the jag plug it in try to connect I've used 4 different apps torque..obd doctor. .fash connect and another one obdfacile I think it's called.. they all connect to my device but can't connect to ecu. Have tried with engine running and just ignition on. Eml has come on since I took car for a blast down motorway at 80 mph... parked up at supermarket and bing light comes on.
  25. Got it, still wont connect.. it connects to my reader but then I get error cannot find protocol... Id really like to find out why the EML has come on... no loss of power or anything.
