Hi, New rotors and brake pads kits just arrived in the post direct from Jaguar, now it time to fit them. Anyone know of any special tools i need to complete the job. I am most concerned about relieving brake caliper pressure without having to bleed brakes. Someone at work said that the calipers rotate when they come out and a special tool is needed

Thankyou Mikey, I am new to the forum and I just found everything I need to rebuild the brakes..very much appreciated. I am a Brit living in the USA 12 years, always wanted an XJR but at $8 back home its out of the question, but last year I was 50 I bought what I really wanted...what a car..can drive it ll day...never put the radio on ...just wnat to listen to it!

 

Thankyou Norri. First time in the forum, fantastic!

 

$8 per gallon for gas ..that is!

 

Welcome to the forum cmincher! If I had to pay that much for gas, I'd start walking!

 

Welcome to the forum,

Delayed greeting - I've been searching from John O'Groats to Lands End for one of those $8 XJR's!

Mikey has given you a link to the XJR section. You'll get plenty of help and advice there.
