Default Battery and exhaust tip

1- Hi lads, what's the best battery you could recommend me for a XKR 2006?

2- Where can I buy the original exhaust tips?

Thanks

1. This is the battery I put in my 04 XK8 5 years ago. Still going strong after 50K miles. Autozone AGM Order it on their website for local pickup and you can get 20% off.

2. Exhaust tip is p/n C2N2912 looks to be still available from Jaguar.

Question Answer to your question!

Sir John,

Those Dual Exhaust Tips for the 2006 XKR can be found at: www.jaguarlandroverrenoparts.com The Part #'s are: Left - CZN3289 & Right - CZN3290 & Cost $160.46 Each....I've used these Folks several times for new Parts I couldn't find here in Houston and their service is great! Delivery generally in about 5 to 6 days...and the Price is actually better than the Jag Guys here in Houston!

I installed a "Quicksilver Exhaust System" on my 2005 XKR and I used the Jaguar Tips rather than those that came with the Set as I think they are better looking! They fit better also....

"Best" is somewhat subjective. Here's my best:

You can't go wrong with the NAPA Legend Premium AGM battery. Right size, good price, good warranty, and working very well for me.

Thanks for the info! I know that X100 could be very "sensitive" with codes if battery is not a good one.
