    Failed and seized injectors

    We all read and heard the horror stories of failed injectors, which are then found to be seized into the cylinder head, and the subsequent cost in time and money. I’m told they fail due to a build up of carbon, and the risk of this happening can be greatly reduced by an annual treatment of TUNAP...

    Towing

    With Goodwood approaching, and the real possibility of parking in muddy/boggy fields, I’m concerned that I may have to attach the front towing hook. Are there any problems associated with this? Is it easy to remove the coloured blank? And if the car has to be towed backwards for a short...

    Registering service history with JLR

    Just had annual service done by my local Jaguar specialist. Now need JLR to update my service record. I have done this previously with no problem, but this time my email was returned, undelivered. They appear to have changed their email? And if so, can anyone please supply me with their new...

    Bonnet air vents

    Treated myself to a pair of new carbon air vents ~ they help to keep rain water away from the engine ~ very easy to fit (5 mins) ~ and they look good.

    Service schedule

    I take my ftype to an independent for servicing. I like to give them a detailed Jaguar service schedule that I can go through with them, and on completion they can tick off all the items and stamp. In the past I’ve printed them off from the JLR website for my model, but now I can’t find them...

    Range/Land Rover Thefts

    I see in the news that Land and Range Rover thefts in London and Manchester have reached epic levels with 90 cars being stolen every day! And insurance companies refusing cover. Can our ftypes be stolen just as easily? If I disable keyless entry does this help? Ghost 11 engine immobiliser, which...

    Where do I put my GB sticker for driving in France

    Statement from JLR ~ Ftype headlights fine for Europe, no adjustment or stickers required. I’ve printed out a copy of this which I take with me, so I can show it if required.

    Carbon side skirts

    My used 2019 Ftype came with Jaguar carbon mirror covers, and carbon front wing side vents. I wasn’t sure about them to begin with, but now I’ve grown to like them. And I’m now thinking of adding carbon side skirts. Can anyone recommend a make and supplier in the UK?

    P340 ~ how many?

    Hi simpleR, Thank you for that, but I’m sorry I didn’t make myself clear. In late ‘18 (M/Y ‘19) they introduced a new series with a number of improvements, including the 10’ screen, Apple car play, etc., and called it the “P” series, ie the P340, P380, and at the same time they introduced the...

    P340 ~ how many?

    I had a 2014 V6 340 convertible, 60,000 miles, loved it, and no problems. Im old and the V6 is perfect for me. I recently changed it for a low mileage 2019 P340 coupé. Really like it. The last of the V6’s. Have yet to see another P340, although I looked at hundreds recently at Simply Jaguar...

    Moulded Y rubber hose ~ water leaks

    I keep hearing about the problems with the Y water hose at the top of the engine leaking at its joint, on earlier model cars. Apparently, on later cars this hose is better made/moulded and has no problems. I have a V6 - M/Y 2019 - VIN SAJDB1AV2KCK59166. Can any of you clever people tell me if I...
