Hi - My name is Dave Ritchie and I have a 1998 XJ8L . Beautiful car with only 83,000 Miles. Just joined the forum this morning because driving this car is a great experience but when something goes wrong its not so great . Luckily I was a mechanic in my youth and have some experience working with cars . Seems like every couple of weeks there is a new issue . But I hope to keep this car and may need help from the forum.

Hello, Dave,
When you think about it, it's not too surprising that a car 18 years old needs some care. But every little thing you fix successfully gives you such pleasure that you can face the next little thing (or BIG thing) with more confidence!

Well, that was my experience anyway.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

Welcome to the forum Dave,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

Follow Norri's link in post #2 to the X308 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
