On the left a Jaguar OEM Oil Filter EBC 9658 On the Right a Mann Filter W 930/13 Both are the same size 93mm X 120mm and both fit exactly the same. You can also see my Oil Filter Chain Wrench which will undo most if not all Car Oil Filters

So much easier if you take the Wheel off. The smaller Jack is to lower the suspension and then assist the Shock Absorber back into place.

Instead of using Axle Stands, if I don't need to take the Wheels off I sit the Tyres on either 2 or 4 of these.

Providing you can get underneath, replacing the Rear Brake Pads is quite easy.

Just undo the Lock Nuts where you see the Spanner, then Screw the Nut against the Tube to tighten it up.

After using the Strippers to Strip the Wire, I slid on an Insulated Terminal (in this case a joiner) and then used the Adjustment Screw to set the depth of 'Crimp'

If I could re-join these Wires in the right order, then the Sidelight/Headlight Warning Light would be working again.

Since the edge of this Knee Pad sometimes catches the toe of my Shoe when I brake, I thinking of leaving the Knee Pad off altogether.

If you don't keep the toe of your Shoe in the space between the pedals and knee pad, then sometimes this happens! Which would not be good in an emergency braking situation.

When changing from the gas pedal to brake, it seems as if you have to keep the toe of your Shoe in the space and then slide it over from one pedal to the other.

The Trim Clicks onto the Metal Bar just above the Brake Pedal. Which gets in the way of putting your foot on the Brake Pedal.

Loads more Leg Room on my 1989 XJS thanks to the Thinner Knee Pad. Making it very easy to get to the Brakes without catching your foot.
