Hello good Jag folks
I have an 03 XKR -- AJ27 engine which I'm looking to replace the timing chains on which off course means gaskets too. I have found the chains, tensioners and guides. but the kits don't come with gaskets. Problem I'm having is finding the chain cover gaskets as well and cam cover gaskets. I'm in the U.K. so wondering if anybody knows where to find these gaskets?

Thanks in advance

 

Have a look at SNG Barratt, one of the forum sponsors, for engine parts for your X100:

The 2003 XKR will have the 4.2 liter AJ34 engine and the Morse Style 'silent-running' primaries with metal tensioners.

 

cheers but mines the last of the 4.0 litres AJ27

 

From engines August 13, 2001; (engine S/N 0108130000 onward) the AJV8 4.0 were supposed to have the metal body tensioners.
