Welcome to the forum nutz2000,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

Follow Norri's link in post #2 to the XK8/XKR forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Welcome nutz2000
Congratulations on the new Jag, now go out to the garage and change those secondary cam chain tensioners. That should get your hands dirty
