2003 jaguar s type
Hi,
We just purchased a beautiful low mileage jag s type. So far, I am totally satisfied, but it does have the annoying steering screech that I have heard others talk about. Any success stories out there? When I called the jag dealership, they recommended replacing the steering fluid first. I would love to get this fixed as simply and inexpensively as possible. Your response is appreciated!

Welcome to the forum! We have a low mileage 2000 which we purchased about a year ago. Haven't noticed any strange steering sounds. Perhaps others will be able to give you some guidance there. happy motoring.

RE: 2003 jaguar s type
Does it make the screech while at full turn lock or anytimeyou steer?..It maybe like low fluid or slipping Serpentine belt due to a weak tension pulley..Only a guess as I'm not familiar with the S type..
But welcome..I'm sure a qualified Jag Tech here will be along to help you out.

RE: 2003 jaguar s type
I have a Jaguar S-Type 2003. I bought it last year in November with 30k miles on it.After one week I heard the steering making a noise but you could barely hear it.The fluid level was ok,no leaks. I took it back,30 days of free warranty plus extended warranty on 75kmiles or 5 years;they kept my car for more than a week and they basically changed the front end struts,shocks,pinion rack...all in all was a little bit over 2000$! but I didn't pay a dime and they gave me a rental.
I can't complain about my Jag. Maybe because it's my Sunday car and I'm not driving it too much...and also I'm a trucker
)
Good luck!
