Hello Guys,
​​​​​​Spring Season has arrived. I'll be soon taking my car out from winter storage. I am searching for a good independent Jaguar mechanic in the North Jersey area. I purchased Sport Cats, Mid Pipes and Exhaust Muffler from SuperSprint Italy. I can not find any independent Jaguar Auto Tech repair shop in my area. I called two Jaguar car dealerships just to see what they'd say about installing the aftermarket exhaust system on my 2017 Jaguar F-Type R sports car which is now out of warranty. The Jaguar car dealership service department says "NO" we will not do any aftermarket parts installation on the car even if it's out of warranty. The service advisor told me, they turn down customers who purchased new tires from Tire Rack and want to bring the new tires to the Jaguar car dealership only for the installation aspect to the car. The service department will not do the job. They turn down the request, saying no to the customer. I was surprised but also not surprised hearing what he had to say to me.

If anyone know of a good place to take my car to get the SuperSprint exhaust system installed onto my car, please let me know where I can bring my car to get the exhaust system done.
Thank you very much for your input.
Rob

 

Doesn't need to be a repair shop or a Jag specialist, what you want is a good exhaust shop.
On my last five or six cars before the F-Type, including my XFS and XFR, I used an independent exhaust specialist, a one man operation.
He did extensive mods including hand-built extractors, all quality work at a very good price, you want to find someone similar.

 

Rob,


Following...I'm interested in finding a Jaguar indie specialist too, 'just in case' I need one.


For the exhaust, ask at:

Euro-Tire in Fairfield NJ. They do a lot of track mods for the Porsche crowd. 973-575-0080

OR OffCamber Autosport in Rockaway 973 453 3580

another shop that has worked for friends is PMR in Long Valley. 908 832 6572

 

After the installation, you can see & hear the exhaust system for yourself to evaluate.
Thank you.

 

Our UK customers will hopefully add video too.

 

Carbuff2,
Thank you for the suggestions. I reside in Wayne township. The places that you suggest are nearby so I'll certainly check those two places out. Unfortunately I have been unable to locate an independent Jaguar auto technician in the North Jersey area.
Much appreciated !

 

I haven't found a good independent real repair shop either in this area, for Jaguar or any other modern high-end cars. However, for stuff such as exhaust work, there is Torrent Motorworks in Upper Nyack, NY. They do a lot of high-end exhausts and some other performance stuff.

 

If possible, take video at the shop. Then video a few runs.
