Hello all,

This is my first post, but i have read some of the comments here and alot of them have been very helpful. Not sure how this works but here goes.....

I recently bought a 2000 jaguar s-type 3.0 v6 from a private owner so i have no warranty ( yeah i know, smart move huh). At first the car was driving fine, then all of a sudden i got a check engine light, fail safe engine mode, and about five codes. I googled some of the codes and tired to fix some of the problems but it seems like nothing is working and it's driving me crazy because i don't know what to do! . Took it to the jaguar dealership and was told ( after spending $150.00 on a diagnostic test) that " It can be a number of things, We would have to start working on it to figure out what the problem is" . I believe they thought i had stupid on my forehead. Anyway, back to the codes. AutoZone was able to pull codes P0795, P1383, P1380, P1576 and P102. Like i said before, I googled the codes but i am still unsure as to what is what and do i fix them in a certain order. Or should i just give up and forget the $5000 i spent and call it a lesson learned? i fell in love with this car as soon as i saw it but it's really becoming a real buzz killer!


Any feedback would be appreciated,
Thank you all in advance for your time.
