Default New Member - 2000 XJR

Hi all, I picked up a new to me 2000 XJR this weekend. The car has only 60k miles and seems to be in good shape. When I collected it the hood wouldn't open so that's been the first job - useful instructions found in the X308 forum. I'll be checking the secondary tensioners before driving it much, no rattles just precautionary. It will need a new headlining fairly soon and I noticed the front shock mounts are starting to crumble. There's also a minor vibration from the rear, I think one of the rims has a dent in it.

I've had a V12 E type, XJ40, XJ81 and an XJR6 in the past and used to be pretty active on the forums. I'm hoping to get back up to speed and contribute here but till then I'll be looking for help.

Mike

Welcome to the forums Mike,

Good to have you with us.

I can see you've already found your way to the X308 forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please 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.

You can also use the US Lower Atlantic Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/u...r-atlantic-66/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
