Default New XJR owner in NYC

Hey guys,
Picked up a black 2003 XJR last night! Excitied to join the community. A few questions if I may:

- there are two buttons next to the trans shifter...one looks like sport mode, the one on the right is damaged so can't tell what it does. Can someone enlighten me? (no manual)

- what oil do you use in the 4.0 supercharged motor? any special filters/treatment required if i were to take to a a non-jag dealer for oil change?

Thanks

Welcome Mike, Good to see another brave soul to bring an XJR up to NYC. I think the button you're talking about is traction control. It being worn out, looks like the previous owner had a little too much fun lolol..kidding
