Default Great To Be Here.

Hello From Fort Lauderdale Florida.

I have just Purchased a 1999 XK8 CONV 4.0 Gas. This forum has helped me pick out the top of the line OBII PC VERSION to diagnose codes and to figure out why the engine light is on ... along with a abs system control failure lights.. Got some great New matts with jag emblems on them, a wood grain shifter knob with emblem also.
I just wanted to thank the Admins and all of you great members that have incite and input to this forum.. I am sure that most of the users here will agree that there are thousands of dollars of labor saving tips along with Information to great vendors and Pictures of all the Great looking cars that one can compare and judge before buying new parts and or equipment for absolutely FREE .

My Name Is Ken .. and just wanted to say hello to all of you and wish you the best of luck.. its great to be a member of the jag owners(enthusiast) forum.

Thanks in Advance.

Oh one other thing you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for.

Only an Administrator can do that and they do it manually. It is a combination of time on the forum and a number (10+?) of posts. However, if you are seen as a positive to the forum it may come sooner. I see that your posts are low, check around and find a post you can respond to so you can bring the count up.

Welcome to the forum Ken,

Glad that you are enjoying the forum.
As Gus says you need to increase your post count for full access, take a look in the off topic section there are several non technical threads that you could participate in.
