Hi all,
Should have joined a while back, but got spoiled by Elitecare.
Dave here, FL resident close to 25 years now.
2016 XF 3.0 SC AWD bought new in 2017.

I am reasonably adept mechanically.
Have a couple Triumph Bonnevilles and Norton Commandos to keep me busy, so have a decent tool assortment.

Looking to renew the timing chains, perhaps the VC cover gaskets while I'm in there.
Do pukka shop manuals exist for this year/model?
Have done a cursory search, even ordered a USB stick version from eBay. It was a bad joke of course.

Cheers!
Dave

Thanks Norri.
Added sig line but it doesn't seem to cascade to existing posts?
Hopefully appears going forward.
Cheers.

Welcome to the forums Dave,

Workshop Manuals do exist but are now entirely electronic and nowhere near as detailed as the printed ones of earlier years.





The source of these is JLR TOPIx where they can be viewed or downloaded but it is a chargeable (by time) service.

https://topix.jaguar.jlrext.com/topi...cle/lookupForm

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xf-x260-99/ to the X260 forum for help, advice and information. You can also use the US Lower Atlantic Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/u...r-atlantic-66/ to find other members in your region.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Thanks to all for the welcomes. Good vibes.
Bought a day of Topix to take a poke about. Looks good. Thanks for the pointer Graham.

I guess it's time to move this to a specific forum.
See you 'out there'.

Cheers.
Dave
