Red face Jaguar x308 faults

Hi
New member but not to jags, Never had so many niggling problems with a jag before.
Finding info on the x308 impossible,but hopefully I may hav more success here.
Parked the car last week and it hasnt moved since,its only done 50,000 miles.
Thought it was electrics but have now proved it is fuel problem
what do you suggest New filter or pumps. I assume the pumps can not be cleaned/serviced.
Any suggestions appreciated
Jensens dont have these problems
TD

Welcome to the forum,

Good to have you with us.
That's good advice, post in the tech section and someone will have an idea, but do include allthe symptoms, codes, what you have done etc.
You're just having a laugh about the Jensen, aren't you?

If you haven't already done so you should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.

Welcome to the forum.

Good to see you.

Yes we have quite a few FP threads in the X308 section. IIRC there is a method of hot wiring the secondary pump when the primary packs in.

(Oh, check your inertia switch, you never know).

No the Jensen starts every time - had it 25 years
Mind you this is the first Jag Ive starting problems with - bring back the XJ6/4.2
