When I saw Jaguar were starting to remove older documents from TOPIx, I took the precaution of downloading all the XK Owner's Handbooks.

I still have to assemble several of them from the individual PDF's.

At the bottom of the TOPIX login page: https://topix.jaguar.jlrext.com/topi...cle/lookupForm

"Please note that owner's information for all vehicles is available to view free of charge on the Jaguar Owner Handbook and Land Rover Owner Handbook websites" (I wish!)

If you click on the Jaguar link in that statement, you'll go back to where you started, namely, the Jaguar page titled OWNER INFORMATION for current model Owners' Handbooks. If your model is not listed, the following is at the bottom of the page:

"CANNOT FIND THE MODEL YOU ARE LOOKING FOR?
If you cannot find the model or the model year you are looking for then click the button below."

Guess where clicking that button takes you? Good guess! Right back to that same TOPIX page! Start over again ... and again ... ad infinitum.

Is this some kind of British humor?

Has the Big Cat gone to the dogs?

 

I did a few circles too!

 

Cheers!

 

Grant,

You can download the 2008MY XK Owner's Handbook from my MediaFire account:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/zwfh7f..._02_30_101.pdf

XK Owners Handbook 2008 - JJM 10 02 30 101. It's a 17mB PDF.

Graham

 

According to this post (by you) that's the 2010MY handbook?

I have a 2008MY (JJM 10 02 30 801) pdf, do you want it for hosting?

I also have some "X150 Service Manual" pdf found somewhere, which is a staggering 4000 pages long. If it is appropriate to host it (the pdf makes no mention of the source of the information), do you want it as well?

 

I've got JJM 10 02 30 101 (the UK version) but don't have JJM 18 02 30 801 (the US version) as a single PDF. It would be very useful if you have that so I don't have to compile all the individual PDF's for it.

I have three versions of the X150 Service Manual but these all originated from JagDocs (which seems to have disappeared recently). They are all watermarked and can't be hosted on the forum Mediafire account.

Graham

 

I didn't spot any watermarks on the Service Manual, I've sent you a link to both files.

 

It may have just been a typo but the US version is JJM 18 02 30 801

JJM 18 is US and JJM 10 is UK.

 

I have some... which are needed?

They tend to be quite big - maybe this site wouldn't let me upload them anyway?

 

It was - I've corrected it.

THANKS

Graham

 

I regret to inform Forum members that internet access through Topix to free Owners Handbooks for all X150 model years is no longer available. This is Jaguar's reply to my recent request.

 

So no one was ever able to find or supply a digital PDF of the US version of the 2014 XK handbook?

I gratefully downloaded the UK version from here, and I found a 2012 US version elsewhere online. I suppose between the two of them I'll figure it out. But if anyone knows of a 2014 US, I'd be very eager to hear about it!

 

I think I should have replied here, since you are the one who downloaded and assembled all the handbooks.. Sorry to everyone for the near-repeat (a reply to someone else below).

I see only links to specific guides that you have linked here, but I have not figured out a way to browse the collection, and do not know if you even encourage that.

Do you in fact have a copy of the 2014 XK Handbook - US version? I have downloaded your UK version, and I found a US version of the 2012 Handbook elsewhere, which must be pretty close to 2014. But if you do in fact have the 2014 US as well, I'd be very grateful for a link.

 

Jaguar have become very lazy with Owners Handbooks in recent years. They are rarely updated unless there is a major specification change and are now generic, covering all available options. I think the only differences between the 2014 European version you already have and the US version would be in the Conformity and Type Approval sections.

Graham

 

They are pretty similar but the US one has Satellite and HD radio v DAB in the European one. And Tire v Tyre of course

I don't have the 2014 US one but these are for the 2015MY XK:

 

I didn't think of that. Switched the audio off the day I bought the car and it hasn't been switched on again since!

Graham

 

Thanks to you both. The US version would appear to have more pages - starting with the Introduction and going on from there. Maybe just greater verbosity? I'll just have to be prepared to flip LH and RH. I used to live in the UK a while back (XJ6 S3 '79 and '85), so I'll understand the different names of things. (XJS '89. XJS '92, XK8 '98, XK8 '05, XK 14 here in the US.)
