hi all, i have had my 2005 xk8 for 7 years now. i bought 6 months old and saved a ton of money. i have 43000 miles on it and just now starting to have a few issues with it. of course after the warranty has expired. started reading the forum yesterday and thought it was a great idea to join.

2005 - is that a Victory Edition?

i am in the process of replacing my hydraulic lines for the top latch. it is great to find so much useful info in one place. i,ve got the interior removed and access to the lines in clear sight. just have to order the new hoses and wait for them to come in

 

might as well get out the leather cleaner while i wait.

 

Good idea. The green shower cleanup could take longer than the hose refit!

it was a nice mess. seems like most people have the problem putting the top down. i had my shower tring to put the top up after having it down for a couple of weeks

 

i went to guses website several time and have not been able to find the hoses he has developed.

 

Is this the link you're after:

JagRepair.com - Jaguar Repair Information Resource

i think i am getting the hang of this!

 

That's good.
