I have most of them as well.
An forum admin could create exsample Onedrive or Google drive account for the complete forum files and set account for all crrent admins.
Just a thought.
Good suggestion; however, The parent company of those two services are known to remove things from services on the whims of corporate interests or anything that may go against their own value system. One might say they're just workshop manuals, what's the big deal? Well, we have to remember that Jaguar does not want us to have these, as far as I know. I mean it hasn't been that big of a deal up to this point I don't guess. And I don't imagine that it would be, but you never know. I have an encrypted location where this couldn't even possibly happen that I could store them and yet still make it easily accessible. Do you happen to have the 2014 referenced workshop manual? That's the only one I don't have.
Dropbox could be one possibiluty as well.
Somehow i had in my mind that EU manufacturer have to hand out the workshop manuals for private(company) and also manufacturer can´t refuse anymore to claim warranty void, even vehicle is not serviced by margue chain network. Therefore the service manuals are not "outlaw" to share. (at least in EU)
Sorry. I was pretty sure i have +2014 manual but no.
Maybe clubairth1 have it?
I do but as posted above the manuals are a mess. My 2014 XJ version only contains the 3.0L Diesel engine so not real useful in the US where we did not get the Diesel versions. But for the rest of the car it is useful but still hard to find what your looking for.
I use a combination of that manual plus the F-Type manual plus a 5.0L Engine Introduction manual and then the 2010 XFR manual I believe came from OzXFR?
Still looking for better versions but they are all just stuffed with the same safety junk that is repeated hundreds of times making these things like 9000 page PDF's!
Here is what I have and currently use;
About 1.3 GB. I will upload all these again for anyone that wants them. Jaguar Manuals
Your most welcome and one of my main problems is just finding service information. If not for this list and several generous Jaguar tech's I would have almost nothing to go by. I have a Topix account and I really find that to be pathetic as well?
If I built cars I would include a digital service manual with the purchase of every car! Why hide it like it's some kind of top secret information?
I just don't get it?

I'll give it to you in one word: liability.
and one Carlin Quote: " Think about how dumb the average person is. Then realize half of people are dumber than that".
Put those together and what do you got? The situation we are in. So I do get it, sort of. Best case was Haynes or Chiltons, and while I have one for my X-Type, no bueno on the x351. Honestly, while Topix is $$$ and not the best, the fact they even allow us as plebeians to access it at all is honestly better than a lot of other manufacturers.
Can't see how supplying repair information would give them liability? If that was true then EVERY single car repair manual would be a ticket to great riches in the hands of an attorney?
The problem is far deeper that that! We need to understand all car companies are in the business of selling new cars. NOT repairing their old cars. This entire forum is exactly what the car companies don't want to see! You should be a good sheep and just drive the car and then throw it away and buy another new one. Don't repair anything and for God's sake please don't educate yourself!
This is modern moron world of one button fixes!

I think $$$ is the answer too! Plus just like the old fashion dipstick to check your oil. They went away because no one was using them. You still can't people to check the oil level and now you can do it from the drivers seat without any effort at all!

Here is the download link and I think it should be good for 30 days or so. Not sure as the website has changed some and I don't see that mentioned. This is big at around 1.4GB or so.
After I joined the Forums, the acronym list was one of the first items I downloaded, thanks to JagV8.
However, trying to follow the conversations on new electronic X351-X152-X260 features drove me to update the list.
Hopefully someone finds it useful.
