The servo is the booster isn't it? JEPEC uses both terms.

Servo. Booster. You say po-tay-toe I say po-tah-toe. The terms are often used interchangeably.

I wonder what Jaguar 'officially' calls it in the parts catalog?

I'd certainly challenge the warranty company on this. Ask them to define what they mean by 'servo".

Cheers

Welcome to the forum

 

Sorry what does '65 plate' mean?

The last S-type was produced in 2008 so would be long out of factory warranty.

Generally, a booster is the same as a servo, simply different terminology. All S-types had a servo/booster.

 

kanellian,

My apoligies that was 56 plate thats what happens posting on a phone and thank you for responses will update following my latest call to warranty people

 

This is an international forum and we use Model Year to avoid and confusion arising from individual country registration systems. Your UK 56 Plate will have been registered between Sept 2006 and Mar 2007.

Good luck with your warranty claim. Let us know how you get on.
