Hello everyone,

I just bought my first Jaguar. It is a silver 2007 X Type, 3.0 AWD with 89,000 km. I am the second owner and the car was in great shape, inside and out. The car drove great in the first two days that I owned it but now things are starting to break down. I would really like to fix everything and keep the Jag for a long time. I was hoping to do it proactively but looks like that won't happen!

I live in Brampton, ON, Canada. We have nice summers and for that time of year I drive a 2011 Mustang, sterling grey with red Le Mans stripes. The Jag will be my winter car. I've always wanted one since riding the bus every day past a Jaguar dealership on my way to university 10 years ago. Anyways, I would like to learn from more experienced members how to take care of the car and hopefully pass this knowledge on to others.

I know you've already found your way to the X-Type tech section 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 info on regular issues.

Welcome for a fellow Canadian and Ontario resident!

Have a look in our dedicated regional section (see my sig) possibly you'll find someone in the Toronto area with a recommendation for a mechanic.

 

Welcome to this great forum . Speaking from experience you will need the advice you get here!
Having lived and worked 10 years in Brampton {BAY Warehouse} I am surprised at your choice of Jag for winter car. The winters can be brutal though not like Buffalo's
3 years ago driving my XJR 2001 and exiting the 401 to a TH in London at very low speed I slid on ice into a parking curb stone .
Major damage to front end.
However others in the Northern States may offer more encouragement!!
