Want this question answered?
it could be a hydraulic lift cylinder
use a real mechanic queer
hi there only jaguar dealers or jag aproved garages will be able to reset the xk8 system regards cr4zy_jaguar
Sounds like the Hydraulic pump seal has failed. Dealer says that this common as the vehicle gets older. I believe the kit is around $75 from the dealer.
Yes a Parrot CK3100, it works in my 96 XK8 (97 MY if you are American)
Wait until it drains out the dipstick tube, return automible onto it's wheels and add oil. Its easier to change the oil if the Jag is not on its roof, but the oil filter is harder to reach.
The XK8 is computer chip limited to 155mph.
I had a similar problem with my 98 xk8 and found out the connection plug had just came unplugged from under the console. the clip had somehow worked loose. worth the look.
where is the starter located on a jaguar xk8?
it runs from the latch and down the n/s a pillar. the front roof panel unscrews with torque srews
Yes, the Jaguar XK8 does have a fuel pump.
There isn't one on a 98 XK8.
