Hello everyone, I'm Dylan.
Just recently I purchased myself a 2004 Jaguar xj8. I have already done a little work on it and do need to do some more.
Right now I replaced the water pump and sensor. Right now in the process of trying to figure out the half no heat issue. I have seen that it is common, and there are a lot of fixes. That will be exciting.
I also have the "transmission hunting" issue. I do plan on doing a fluid flush fairly soon but seeing what the threads say, that wont fix it. But I will get to that once I can do that.
As for me, I am a college student and I work two jobs. Located in Kentucky. Saved up to purchase this Jaguar. For reference this is an upgrade from my previous vehicle which is a 1991 BMW 318i (E30).
But, that is me. Thanks for reading.
Also, sorry for the poor photo. I don't have many of it yet and this is a copy from my phone moved to my computer... and ironically I am a professional photographer.

Hello, Dylan,
Congratulations on your 'new' Jaguar!
Not a bad picture for a phone. I can't wait to see what you do with a proper camera!

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

Thanks! I may of missed it but is there a specific thread for photography? Where would I post those pictures when I have them?

It's here:
Photography - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum

However, most of us like to put pictures of our cars in our personal albums. You can make albums from UserCP on the upper left just above.

If you're logged in that takes you directly to your own User Control Panel. From there, in the side bar under Networking is Pictures and Albums.

Enjoy.

Welcome to the forum Dylan,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

Elinor has already given the information in post #5 on posting photographs.

Follow this link XJ XJ6 / XJ8 / XJR ( X350 & X358 ) - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the X350 forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information 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.

You can also visit the US Southern Midwest Region forum by following this link US Southern Midwest - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

welcome. As one who would never carry a camera, I find that my phone works well as a quick grabber of proof.
