Default Hello from MN!

Hello everone! I'm a long time lover and first time owner of a Jaguar X_Type. I love my car even though it has been giving me some problems lately. Hopefully it's an easy fix! With that said.....I'm excited to be connected with so many Jaguar lovers in one place. Happy driving!

Welcome to the forum Sarah,

Sorry to hear you have issues with your X-Type. Follow this link X-Type - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the X-Type section for help, advice and information.

You can visit the Mid West US Region section by following this link Mid West US - IL IN IA MI MN MO OH WI - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to find other members in your region.

Hope it's an easy fix and the X-Type is soon running sweetly again. Enjoy the forum.

Graham

Welcome, Sarah - and greetings from the increasingly chilly Midwest! Yes, you should certainly get some pointers from the X-Type section of the site. We'll look forward to seeing you around!

Cheers,
Scott

Thanks everyone for the pointers. I will check out the other forums. I am on my way to pick up my part in a few minutes. Hopefully I can repair it myself! Have a great day!

Sarah

Just a quick update...I was able to fix my problem. I had to replace the coolant reservior because a piece was cracked. Thanks to some over the phone coaching from my brother (who owns an S-Type) I was able to replace it myself! Much cheaper than taking it to the dealer for sure! She's running like a champ now!

Great result.
DIY fitting has probably saved you the equivalent of this months fuel bill!
