Default Greetings everyone

Hello, new member here from Northern California. We have a 2005 S-Type 4.2L that mainly gets babied but has been trouble free since we got her. Now the warranty has run it's course and I need to start paying attention to the technical side of the marque in order to keep her running well. I have worked in the automotive industry for 30 years and know my way around a wrench and DVOM and I'm looking forward to learning from this group. I also have a Land Rover Discovery II which so far appears to be much more simple than Jaguar. Thanks in advance.

Hello and welcome to jaguarforums.com. I know that you are anxious to get started and we are anxious to meet you and talk about your car. We have a baseline / criteria that must be met before full access can be granted. Please enjoy the forum and be patient once the baseline has been satisfied full access will be granted. Please continue to post and accept my welcome to the forum.

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.

Please take a moment and read the information provided to you explaining the rules. Be patient and enjoy the site.

Default New member, hello everyone. Kevin from North Carolina.

Hello, I just purchased a used 2004 Jaguar X-Type with a manual transmission and 2.5L engine with 175,000 miles on it for 6 thousand... AND joined this forum as an enthusiast wanna-be. I'm replacing the gas cover (body shop working on it now) and the A and C columns can use new cloth due to sun damage. I will be a better owner as I'm garaging it First shock? It came with one key and the dealer would like 400 dollars for one key and one remote entry AND a service appointment...
