hi all s-types have the same wheel base so later ones wont be different some S-type have adjustable pedals, which will only give you a extra few inches, did you lift the steering column and send the steering wheel in aswell as mentioned you could make adapter plates. cheers Joe

Hi Adamesh do nice stainless ones got them on mine and there great, not to loud , but with a nice burble cheers Joe

Hi Have you tried Jaguar classics cheers Joe

Hi There all here free, all in PDF http://www.jagrepair.com/ which manuals are you actually after cheers Joe

Hi common place for water in the boot on S-types is above the rear lights, there a infill piece of rubber across the top of the lights, its very common leak. usually fix is remove the lights and clean it all up, then reseal the upper rubber seal on the light with some silicone and that cures it cheers Joe

HI For most of the awkward bolts, I bought Facom rotator ratchets, I was that impressed with them I got all 3 sets, 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" basically its like a normal ratchet, but you can also just rotate the handle and the socket spins, its save me a lot of hassel on my S-type R, especially when doing the valley pipe, when ive done timing belts on various cars its saved me hours in work. also using a wobble extension on the socket also means you can get the socket on the bolt at various angles wobble extention Facom rotator ratchet

Only problem is, if the adjust are original, buy the time it get to you in the post, ods are they will be broke aswell.

Hi, You wont get bored of it, had mine nearly 10 years and its been one of the most reliable cars I've owned. its been well looked after though, but it always manages to put a big smile on my face. The two best mods are the stainless exhaust, make the car's supercharged V8 sound like it should, great burble and the Jagdroid stereo, bringing the stereo up to modern times, with android 13 and all the features of a modern phone in the car, with the OE Jaguar look.

Hi If the front end feels floaty, thats usually the shock absorbers, would replace both if it were mine cheers Joe

Yes, you do have to drop the bumper, but in my case it only actually takes about 20 minutes to remove, will attach some pics of where the screws are, to remove the bumper. bumper removal.doc cheers Joe

Hi If you want to do a Proper job, not a Bodge Job, then you can buy the adjusters off ebay, the normal S-type adjusters will do, as theres only one that breaks in each headlight and that the same in the normal headlights. but you do have to take the headlight off and split them, does not take that long did mine in a few hours. lots of videos on youtube on how to split the lights, but if you put them in the oven for 10 minutes on about 90 Deg C, it softens the black sealant, its like blutac but black, makes it go soft and the lenses come off quite easy done a few of them and its not bad, the only thing you must remember, is to disconnect the battery before unplugging the headlights, or your self leveling lights will stop working and can only be reset with software like jaguar ids/sdd or a tool like icarsoft LR V2 cheers Joe

Battery Mega Store are one of the best battery suppliers out there, great prices and fast delivery.

once you find a battery, try the battery mega store, order before 12 and get it next day, a lot cheaper than most shops cheers Joe
