Examples: I will see..... :lemon: words but no little guys smiling, frowning, or whatever...
I did not know it was a Preference, as they just showed up on my screen a few months ago, I just assumed it was one of those once or twice yearly upgrades you guys do...when they disappeared, I did not know we had a choice, just that they were here and then they were gone...kinda like my money in my wallet and my wife...first here, and then gone... :P :confuse:
Yes, but what does that have to do with this thread?
The Electronic Control Module (E.C.M.) that I have to change is JLM 2211 which is on the pasanger's side attached to the center air conditioning unit. I must change the Water Temperature Switch JLM 763 that is located at the driver's side on the other side of the air conditioning unit.
If any one had experience changing those parts I would like to know if the A/C Control Panels started working properly.
Thanks,
Jose
Whats not to like about an 04 for 41K?
In OR, there is only one Jag dealer - in Portland, non in K Falls or Baker City.
Then the reality sets in that the other 3 seasons are not especially suited to RWD luxury sedans with white interiors. (I gave Jag a look about a year ago and the only exterior colors I liked came in a white parchment interior. Saddle or beige just wasn't available as I recall in Green, Titanium, etc.)
The first time I have experienced it I was driving along at 65 mph for some half hour and all of a sudden the engine stalled. I shifted into neutral and cruised to a stop along the interstate.
I turned the ignition off. The starter ran for a few seconds. I halted the start. Turned off the ignition and tried again. Figuring that the engine might be flooded I depressed the accelerator to the floor and held it for a few seconds while trying the starter again. The engine fired and returned to normal. No indicator lights appeared.
The second time it happened the same way.....perhaps a week later.
This time the transmission indicator light came along with the stalling.
This time I was able to restart from neutral while still moving.
But, then the transmission was in "limp mode".
I stopped about 10 minutes later and turned the engine off.
About an hour later, after doing some business, I restarted and the transmission light went off and the transmission regained its full shift capacity.
I know this sounds strange but I have read and heard of others to which this has occurred.
I will take it to my dealer to have them check the codes but I am curious if any of you have had any experience like this ?
What was the diagnosis?
Repair cost?
Suggestions / help / advice appreciated so that I can be sure my cat is in the best of health !

I found yours, which now that I think about it, I read when it was posted with curiosity.
Now that I have had the stalling expierence, I am more curious as to the cause.
I am wondering if we are addressing the same stalling issue.
Please see my last post. (# 2179)
Is there any update since you posted ?
Did you find out what was the problem?
Advise ?
Curious !

This makes me think that an XJ with traction control and a set of dedicated winter tires and wheels would be OK in Northeastern cities and suburbs although probably in rural upstate New York (hello, Car and Driver's Brock Yates, how does your XJ get around Wyoming, NY?), northern ME, VT etc. you would want FWD or better. Although it would probably handle it with ease, the mental image of an XJ on the Rt 32 in mid-coast Maine on a winter night boggles the mind.
I have purchased a 1993 XJ6 and when I start the car in the morning the oil pressure is fine. Once warmed up after 10 min. or so the pressure gauge drops to 0 at idle and goes back up at about 1800 rpm.
Can somebody help me finding out what is wrong?
Thanks,

Are the timing chain/belt issues resolved in the 2001s? What specifics should I pay extra attention to when inspecting an 01 VDP? What is the life expectancy (in miles)?

Some times the LC lights on my panel start flickering and the speedometer arm starts moving back and forth from zero to the speed I am driving. It can go like this for a while and then it goes to back to normal.
Another things that it does is that the computer where the cruise control is some time works and most of the time doesn't.
The cruise control works only if the LC indicator for the shift is on in the panel which most of the time goes off as soon as the gear is on "D" from Drive..
Does any one experienced something like this, what is causing this problem and what can I do to solve it.
Thanks,
Jose :mad:
After looking on the web tonight I found this site, and started reading that I'm not the only one with this problem. I have found that the main reason in all most cases is the "THROTTLE BODY", so I'm going to pass this info onto the garage in the morning, hope to save them some time in fixing the problem.
If they find that it is something different, then I'll post the reason on here.

I'm looking at a couple XJRs but I've read in the specs they they don't get the "Best" gas mileage. Can you guys give me some insite from personal hands on experience in driving these? :shades:
Thanks
What do you think?
I was looking at purchasing a 97/98 XJR and I read that they wern't the best on gas. Can someone tell me a little more about how bad they are "If this is true."
Thanks :confuse:
Anyway, what would be a fair price for the original wheels ?
Thanks ,

They are from 7.5k to 10k more on the Pacific Coast.
TX Cars 4 Less are lower priced, but still quite a ways from the NW for inspection.
There seems to be just 3 markets Left, Right, & Down.
if anyone could educate me as to why the production was so low that
year .
Thanks,
Gary
If anybody shares my view please let me know. :mad: :confuse: :sick:
The new XJ's wheels are pushed out to the corner's, like the 1968 XJ. The previous XJ had a lot of front and rear overhang.
The new XJ's outer headlights are larger than the inner headlights, like the 1968 XJ. The previous XJ's headlights were the same size.
The new XJ has a curve in its rear door, like Jaguars of the 50s and 60s. The previous XJ did not have a curve in its rear doors.
Here is a link to the 2005 Jaguar Super V8. [B]It weighs over 800 pounds less than a BMW 760Li.[/B] It is the new XJ flagship. Geoff Lawson styled the new XJ. He died in June 1999. He also styled the new Jaguar S-Type.

XJ's aluminum chassis.
What is vulgar, is the resale. Not so incidentally, Friday's WSJ had an ad for a 2005 Jag XJ8 LWB lease deal that was interesting: $795 a month with no $$ down for 24 months. The kicker was that the Jag factory/dealer was going to kick in $6250 of "Jag cash". I read this as a $6250 reduction from list price. I was puzzled. Why just 24 months? Wouldn't the depreciation curve start to flatten out then?
I absolutely detest where they have put the taillamps, it is repulsive and takes away from the body of the jaguar.
They have done away with the beautiful chrome that surround the outside of the jaguar with ugly FORD BLACK PLASTIC. This car looks totally an AMERICAN FORD JAGUAR with some European similarities. :lemon:
