Default New x300 owner

Hello from Michigan. I recently purchased a 1995 Xj6. I am new to jaguars but could not pass up this deal. The car was listed for sale for $1500 with only 70k miles. It is in great condition just needs/needed some tlc from sitting in a garage. So far I have not needed to do much other than just small repairs like brakes, new rear view mirror, cup holder. The repair I am doing now is the oil pump chain. I dropped the oil pan looking for the cause of a knocking/ticking noise from the lower end. I expected to find a bad rod bearing or connecting rod. So far it seems to be the oil pump chain has lots of slack. As I continue to work my way through the car I am sure I will be thanking you for more great information!

Welcome to the forums Tony,

Good to have you with us.

I know you've already found your way to the X300 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. You can also use the US Midwest Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-midwest-39/ to find other members in your region.

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.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
