Hello all!
My name is Clint, and I'm new to the forum! I used to be a Bimmer guy and this past year I found myself face to face with a 2001 XKR for the first time. I had to have it! So I'm looking for a home on the Jaguar Forum now that my Bimmer days are behind me. The car has been running perfectly for the past few months, and after my wedding in February, I planned to start putting money into it like replacing plastics, rubber, sensors, paint and wheel restoration, and replacing the interior trim pieces that have cracked or gone missing. That all came to a screeching halt today when I had the car out for a few errands. I posted my problem in the X100 Forum, but now it's a matter of getting my beautiful Jag back to running smoothly...let alone starting on the fun stuff that makes it shiny again.
I know you've already found your way to the XK8/XKR 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 Western Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/western-us-ak-ca-nv-ut-hi-wa-id-38/ to find other members in your region.
