Should the coolant measure be the same regardless if the engine is hot or cold? The other day I noticed a slight occasional hiss coming from my 2016 V6s when cooling after a run out. I decided to keep an eye on all the fluids to see if there was a leak. When the engine has cooled for a good...

Just thought I’d put this here to help anyone else searching with the same problem in the future. Was driving a few weeks ago when suddenly the dash lit up with warning lights Stability Control no available, drive with care. Emergency Brake assist not available. Adaptive dynamics fault...

So I have a very annoying rattle cause by any bass in music when the volume is above about 10. My VIN number is after the warranty bulletin that adds sound deadening material, supposedly the speaker rattle issue should have been solved by the time mine was produced (2016) I’ve realised the...

Out for a drive with a much noisier friend

I was wondering if anyone had left their car sat for 4 months or so before? I'm away next year, and have two options... 1) SORN the car, leave it sat in a private car park (free to use below my apartment). My insurance is about £1,400 a year, so this would 'save' me about £460 on insurance...

Great weather for those summer evening drives. Does make me miss having a convertible (Apologies about the fuzzy picture quality, my phone lens cover didn't respond well to being dropped)

V6S on a gentle run up the A1 as we had a lot of road to cover! Which beats my usual 20mpg that shows most of the time.

Always like to park next to a fellow jag if I can!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think we have a thread where we can put in the most recent photo of our cars, without starting a new thread each time? I never tire of seeing this car, so I'm hoping everyone will update on a regular basis :) I'll get started... parked up after a very...

Very boring question, but google didn't give me the answer. When I got my car it came with a big white bottle of tyre sealant for punctures in the boot, in the space underneath the boot floor panel. Took me a while to realise what the clunking noise was when accelerating/braking. There...

So far I've had dynamic mode on pretty much all of the time, other than a longer motorway trip, and when the snow came. Curious if everyone else does the same, or are people a bit more civilised? :) Paddles for when I really want to have fun, find a good tunnel for the downshifts. Had...

I did put up a picture on my thread where I was looking for my car, but figure I might as well have an intro post now I'm an owner! Picked this up on Thursday, and had a smile on my face ever since. Absolutely love this car, such an enjoyable place to be sat, and sounds incredible. Grey V6S...

I've narrowed my search down to about three cars now, but wanted people's opinion as the mileage differs quite significantly between them. The one most taking my fancy has 30k miles on a 2016 car, so realistically only a year or two old. Would this put people off? Other options are a 2015 car...

So I've been keeping an eye out for the right used F-Type Coupe for a few months, and so far there always seems to be one key spec feature missing. I went along to my local dealer last week to talk to them, and the dealer said my required spec was going to be challenging to find. So I'm most...

Hello all I’m currently keeping my eyes peeled on autotrader/used approved to get a second-hand V6s F-Type. Originally I was looking to get one of the older coupes at around £35k, but have freed up some more money and can now stretch to £50k-ish if needed. The one option that I really like...
