Question Radio Code

Is there anyway to get the Radio Code in case I ever have to replace the battery? This XJ8 was bought from used car sale with no manuals and hence no radio code...?

Well, looks like this thread might answer this but maybe depending on year model: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...-radio-129925/

That is odd, my 2001 XJR didn't need one.

I thought only the European cars still had radio theft codes.

I think you are right, Vector. In fact, with my three cases, MY98, MY99, & MY02, I KNOW you are right.
