My 2006 X-Type Estate had been running like a dream until several start refusals recently. Breakdown calls led to replacement of starter motor and then new battery but problem recurred the other day. The price of the above OEM and after-market parts has scared the pants off me! The garage where the Jag is laid up has tried to source s/h units without success so far. They tell me the fuel pump is only delivering around 25 BAR when it should go to 400? So, despite not being mechanically-minded, I have decided to get on with addressing the parts quest myself.
So, it would be helpful to know the following:- 1) Are the same parts used in the 2.0 version? 2) How about the 2.2 Mondeo of the same era or possibly the Transit? 3) Any other models irrespective of marque Billy No-Jag? 4) Recommended sources of s/h bits?
I enjoy the vehicle so it would be a real shame to write it off as "beyond economic repair". Consequently any and all advice, tips and work-arounds gratefully received.
