Higher on one side?
Hello fellow Jaguar owners! Happy New Year to you all.
My question is if its normal for my 2005 S-type R to be slightly higher on the left driver side of the car? I noticed when i was cleaning the wheel wells and i have a harder time cleaning the rear wheel well. I measured and compared sides and its only a tiny difference ( quarter of a inch) is this normal? |

You need to determine if the vehicle needs suspension re-set or adjustment.
Here is a TSB we got for suspension diagnosis and adjustment. You will need WDS, IDS or SDD (or similar tool). bob |
No air suspension on the S Types, correct?

Thanks for the quick replies!
I don't think my car has air suspension, I'll try to take some good pictures of the control arm tomorrow and see if the bushing looks worn. I should be able to see it right? |

The photos dontd show much...I am thinking the rear anti sway bar bushings...take a good look at those...do you hear or feel any low speed thunking or clunking at the rear...on dips...potholes...even on a driveway...I am pretty sure there are adjustments that can be done for the rear suspension...not sure what they are besides the toe in and if any affect ride height...have you had an alignment done recently

Sorry about the AIR SUSPENSION info. I thought I was posting in the X350 section. |
