Default Oldie but goodie

Greetings everyone. I just joined the forum today. I am the second owner of a 1996 XJ6. The actual miles are 92,000, not bad ehhh. I have always been fond of the XJ6 body style. I'm looking forward to learning how to take care of my new oldie but goodie. Thanks for reading.

92 000 miles is just well loosened up and broken in. You should be able to get another 100K out of that car.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

Welcome.

Agree with Elinor, but those AJ16 engines are good for at least 500K miles, with some proper TLC.

The catch up is always the killer, but as Doug says many times, "do it ONCE, do it PROPERLY, and repeat in 20 years".

Welcome to the forum komplyk8td,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

Follow Norri's link in post #5 to the X300 forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info 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.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
