Can't see Alaska from here!

Greetings from a new member in the NZ Tararua mountains north of Wellington.

Been around Jags all my life since my grandfathers XK and my fathers Mk 10. I have had 5 Cats including Mk 2, XJS, XJ6 and S-Type. Now in addition to a customised van I have impetuously bought an immaculate X-Type 2.5 with 82,000 K's on the clock.Engine check light been on since I moved it from Christchurch last week. Something to do with the journey on the transporter truck and ferry perhaps. I have ordered an OMD2 diagnostic tool to see if there is a fault - and to turn the check light off.

Good to be back in a Jag after a short dalliance with a BMW 5 series and a Mercedes SLK Sportster. Will probably be back to the forum soon to check the fault code after I receive my diagnostic tool.

Cheers (with NZ Merlot)
Kieran

Welcome to the Forums.

Alaska is probably a stretch, even after a few Merlot's, but Antarctica is closer by a couple of kms.

Good luck

After three Merlots the wider world seems a bit more distant - but always visible with your eyes closed........
