1) Disconnect battery ground cable. 2) Relieve fuel system pressure at schrader valve under the hood. 3) Drain/Siphon the fuel tank. Open fuel door, remove fuel cap, 4) remove 3 screws from top of filler neck. 5) Raise vehicle and remove LH rear wheel and tire assembly.

6) Disconnect the vapor recirculation tube connector. Remove dogpoint screw on filler pipe. Exercise care not to damage grommet or check valve at end of pipe. If filler pipe needs clearance for removal, slightly loosen tank straps.

A) Slide fuel pipe into tank enough to obtain clearance.

B) Rotate pipe CCW 1/2 turn and remove the fuel filler pipe.

7) Disconnect fuel pump connector located above the #4 crossmember.

8) Disconnect the fuel lines using tool (T90T-9550-s)

9) Disconnect the vapor tub from the tee on the RH side of vehicle. Hint: squeeze the fitting to disconnect.

10) Disconnect the vapor tube from the canister tube at elbow. (Replace with new clamp later on assembly)

11) Position safety support under vehicle.

12 Remove the nuts and swing the fuel tank straps away from the fuel tank.

13) Lower the fuel tank.

14) Remove and discard the fuel tank mounting studs.

note: When reconnecting the fuel lines, install the upper supply line first which has a label on it.

Lift the vehicle on a jack, remove the tire and set aside, remove the brake shoe/caliper, and remove and dispose of the old brake pad. Put in a new brake pad, replace the brake shoe/caliper, replace the tire, tighten the nuts, and lower the vehicle to the ground.

Jaguar XF 2009 Battery fob

Remove the two metal oval bands (one on either side) which can be done just using fingers or a small screw driver. Make a note of the positioning of the indentations in the bands which are for the pull out key

Open up the key fob mechanism again with fingers or a small screwdriver. The CR2032 battery is obvious and interfaces with the printed circuit board. Replace battery which just pops out of its plastic mounting and reassemble. Polarity is marked on the plastic to indicate which way up

Be careful of the spring loaded mechanism which retains the removable key in the fob but it is easy to reassemble of it does come out of its guiding slot

Could be the connector to the CD unit ( I had same problem on my XKR ) In the trunk take the side panel off surrounding the CD changer and check the connector that plugs into the car wiring loom. Mine had 2 corroded pins, I cut the wires and soldered jumpers across the connector.

It's easy. First, make sure that the ash tray cover is in the up postion. Next, remove the shifter cover. Just grap onto the cover at the top and pull up. There are two screws at the bottom of the ash tray that need to be removed. Remove the ash tray and disconnect the plug to the lighter. Next, remove the cover on the hazard light. Just use a small screwdriver to pry off the cover. Be carefull not to break the clips. There are two torx screws at the top and two at the bottom. Remove these and the entire unit comes out. Remove the plugs to the hazard light, climate controls and radio. The radio unit attached to the bracket separately from the climate control unit. Just remove the screws from the bracket an it will drop right out. Hope this helps.

You've not said if coupe or drop-top, coupe is easier. Lever off speaker cover in centre of window, once one corner is off the rest come away easily, then there are I believe 9 small nuts that need unscrewing, once undone you can open the boot/trunk and carefully pull the sub away. Very difficult to find a replacement sub of the same shallow profile though so easiest to get a used OEM where possible.

Yes, the timing chain adjusters and water pump impeller are both plastic and will need replaced. The control arm bushings will need replaced often. The OEM power top fluid will need replaced with new improved type and change your break fluid every two years to avoid costly ABS repairs. The motor could fail from Nicasil block if high sulfur gas has been used and many electronic gremlins my show up, ie, power seats, windows, mirror's stereo and tail lights. The self dimming rear view mirror my leak oil and need replaced with new gel model. They are a great car and a blast to own/drive, they just can be expensive.

There isn't one. It uses a "sealed for life" transmission. The procedure to check the fluid level is rather complicated and the car has to be up on a lift. Go to jaguarforums.com for more detailed info.

Put the key in the driver door lock, turn clock-wise and hold to lower top; counter-clockwise and hold to raise top. Chimes will sound when the operation is complete.

Yes this is the recommended way to tow a jaguar

It generally means that you should use a better quality premium gasoline. Paul

i have a jag x type and my sidelight bulb has blown....in looking space is limited...but has the light array a cover over it and does this unscrew..or just pull off to gain access to the bulb

open the pass door and look on the side of the dashboard for the fusebox. It is a yellow 20 amp fuse.

The codes means lean fuel. This is probably caused by an air leak in one air supply hoses or in the manifold gasket. Estimated cost of repair is 2 to 6 hundred dollars.

Hmmm... this is a little complicated, and impossible to explain, so read these threads on jaguarforums.com and watch the videos embedded in the threads. This first one shows you how to remove the door panel. You have to copy and paste the text because links are apparently not allowed.

And this one shows you how to adjust the window:

Note: I don't show the front adjustment in the video, but if you read further down in the thread someone else explains it. And BE CAREFUL! Disconnect the battery. I almost chopped off a hand because the window came down unexpectedly with my hand inside of the door.

If your Jaguar is fuel injected the fuel pump is located on top and inside the fuel tank. If it has a carburetor it may be an in-line electric pump or the pump might be mounted on the side of the engine block. Follow the fuel lines from the fuel tank and you will find the pump.

After I tried the above without success, I called the dealer. I have a 2002 XK8. There is a hole for the key between the X and the K just above the rear bumper. The battery is to the right of the spare.

You have to use the key and the keyhole is located on the back between the X and K.

I don't know if the remote will do it, but if you stick your key into the door it will put it up and down depending upon which way you twist the key.

That's correct. You cannot open or close the top with the fob, but you can do it with the key in the door. By the way, most people use their door keys so infrequently that the mechanism is usually very stiff at first. You might have to jiggle is back and forth several times to exercise it before it finally starts to work. Don't turn the key too hard, though. The connection between the latch and the lock pushrods is plastic and it can be broken.
