Few different issues with my 2000 s type

Hello fellas, new the the forum and a first time jaguar owner. My car is nice overall but there are a few issues I need to get onto so bare with me.

1st-My DSC light is on in my car, I heard it may just be a sensor but is there anyway to really know besides taking it to the dealer? The light will be off when first driving the car then within 10min or so it will come on.

2nd: Bumps, rough road, driveway i hear a clunk in any of those situations. Our cars have bad suspension so I want to get that taken care of. I'm sure it could be a variety of things but does anyone that has had this similar experience can pin point me to what I need replaced? I've seen the Youtube video of checking out the suspension our cars so I'll eventually end up jacking the car up and seeing if I can diagnose it by myself.

3rd: Can anyone guide me to a link on replacing the brakes,pads,exc? "sorry if this a dumb question"

4th: my splash gaurd is missing, do you think ill be fine without it?

Any help will be appreciated and I apologize if anyone takes to often for all the questions I've asked, thanks.

Regarding clunks on bumps I have had, the reason was both times perished lower bushing on shock absorber. I have also read that worn anti-roll bar bushings can cause clunks.
