Hello everyone,

I recently picked up an XK8 and (sadly) found out that I'll be needing a lot of help with the vehicle. I'm hoping this is a smart place to begin, and one day offer my own help to others.

Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the forum Mr. Feathers,

Good to have you here with us at Jaguar forums. The '
needing a lot of help' sounds serious but you've come to the right place.

Follow this link XK8 / XKR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the XK8/XKR section for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.

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.

You can also visit the US Western Region section by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/w...t-hi-wa-id-38/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forum.

Graham

Thank you for the warm welcome.

Yesterday I cleaned my ABS speed sensors at each wheel, thanks to the instructions on this site! Sadly it didn't fix the stability & ABS lights... so it looks like I will be attempting the ABS computer soldering fix.

Not bad for a day one member, eh???
