Unhappy So new, you wouldn't believe it.

Hello everyone.

This is my first post, ever. I've never been on one of these sites before so please be patient with me.

My name is Paul and I live in Western Australia.

I own a 2002 X-Type. 2.5 litre AWD. I believe the colour is Carnival (Maroon).

It's my first Jaguar (but not my last).

I'm sorry. What's the difference between a reply and a new post ?

A new post is actually a new 'Thread' and a 'Thread' is started by,eg, going to the Australia section, pressing the New Thread button, giving your post a useful title
'How do I get a Wombat out of my Radiator', asking your question.
Then when you or someone else clicks on your title you have a chance to reply.
So the whole question + replies is a thread.
If you go to
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...-intro-must-5/ which is a section
you'll see
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...believe-83598/
which is this thread.

Paul,
You seem to be doing fine !
There's a whole thread on pics
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/j...st-pics-70820/
All I did to make your thumbnail full size was R click on it, 'copy image URL' then press on the 'mountain' symbol 2nd from the R in the edit pane + paste the URL.
