Just to say hello. We've got a 2003 4.2L XKR that always seems to have some gremlin or other, I've been lurking for a while and searching for info but finally registered. So err, hello! Based near Darlington England. Oh, and XKR is a monster, never get fed up of driving it, just wish the electricals were more reliable.

Cheers everyone, I am slowly digesting all the tech info on here, loads of good info. Just done rear lower wishbone bearings, track rod ends, lower front shock bushes, front discs and pads, tyres, and a fault in the fuel pressure wiring. Easy stuff to do but I had to make some tooling for pressing bushes in and out etc. I run an engineering company so no hardship, and a 20 tonne press soon moves stuck things. Just wish i could get rid of the "DSC Fault" message that appears on start-up most days. Also from last winter to this it seems the headlamps adjusted themselves downwards a lot so I've lifted the beams today. Time to read more info and get those niggles sorted out.

Cheers,
Rich
