Default New Member - 2 Jags in the family

I just signed up for membership but I am a long time lurker. These forums are invaluable when sorting out car issues.

My son talked me into buying him a 1997 XK8 coupe about 4 years ago. A Nikasil survivor until last fall, it now sits waiting on me to swap the engine. We've also had the transmission rebuilt a few years ago and replaced about everything in the front suspension. The XK8 is a beautiful machine, especially the coupe, and I drove it every chance I got. The Jag addiction led to my purchase of a 2014 F-Type V8 S about a year ago. It has been trouble free until recently and I can't figure it out, hence my membership registration. My closest dealer is Omaha, NE and I don't know of any Indy shops in my area servicing Jags. I try to do most everything myself. Thank you to the forum members, moderators, and experts participating here. I know there are a lot of folks like me that find a ton of useful info here but rarely register to say thank you.

Welcome to the forums rogsom,

Good to have you with us.

It sounds like you've already found your way to the F-Type and XK8/XKR forums so there's no need for links to them from me. The 'HOW TO' threads at the top of model forums are a good place to start for information on regular issues. You can also use the US Central Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-central-36/ to find other members in your region.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
