Had an interesting problem happen with my wife’s 05 S-type. After taking a 300+ mile trip, we got to our hotel. When we got back in the car the gear selector would not move out of park, no matter what I tried. Having an F-150, and being able to easily get under my truck. I tried on the S-type which I found out is impossible. I did find a small bolt under the car, which I kept. The car is still under warranty so I called Jaguar road service to get it towed to the local dealership. After checking out the car the service manger told me that in was missing a small bolt, and of coarse they did not have it in stock. I show them the bolt that I had in my pocket, and as luck would have it, it was the missing bolt. The service manager told me that this is a problem with Jaguars (I don’t know if meant all jags or only S-types) and he went on to tell me “he does not understand why Jaguar has recalled the cars to fix the problem”. The fix was fairly easy, a little thread lock on the bolt and all done. I would like to know if anyone has had this happen to then, and if so what was the fix. And if you have not had this happen, it might be something good to look into.
