My name is Khari. I live in Miami Florida. I just purchased a Jag and I'm the type of person who likes to do thngs myself. I noticed that, for the most part, some things regarding maintenance can be done personally while other things will require a qualified mechanic. I joined this forum to get quality advice about my Jag which is a 2004 Jaguar X Type.

My purchase is the first for Jaguar and I'm not familiar with many things about the car. The most important issue which bothers me presently is a sound coming from the left side of the car which sounds like air or something coming out when I accelerate. It's churning in a pulsating form like: fe-fe-fe-fe-fe-fe (if that helps ;-) The sound only happens when I drive not in a stationary position. I can hear the gears of the car when its in drive as well.

I will fork up $145 at the dealership to get a full diagnostic done which I feel is worth it because the car is great for the most part. If anyone has any advice regarding the sound please let me know. I will start a new post regarding this issue as well so people can find it better.
