Hi, newcomer to this forum, and thank you

Hello,

I wanted to contribute, as well as take. I have a 2litre petrol auto 02 X-Type and found this forum invaluable over the last week - to help me navigate a 70,000mile service incl spark plug change ie inlet manifold removal. Without any hope of help from a Haynes manual (why don't they make one of those for the X-Type?) I absolutely needed the help you provided.

I hesitate to bore anyone with what I did wrong,

but it included introducing a air leak/diagnosing and fixing it, and also triggering an ECU warning and resetting that. All with your help. Net saving versus Jaguar dealer, £350+.

Thank you for such a useful and helpful forum. I hope I can be a net contributor along the way.

I have had the X-Type for 18 months and it has been a great car, excellent value and the most luxurious ride I have ever been able to afford.

Regards

ianm

Hey ianm welcome to the site.....great intro and info on how useful you found the forum

The X type is a great car. i loved my 02 2.5 V6 Sport

which I had a while back.
Post up some pics when you can Ian and check out the detailing section and also the X type FAQ quick links for quick n easy access to most of the questions you may have about your car.
See you around.......
