Jaguar X Type

Dealer device required for programming. No cloning availiable.

Did mine in under 2minutes for 2 key fobs off Ebay

1) Open the driver side door.

2) Turn the ignition switch to the 'auxiliary' position, then turn the ignition switch to the

'ON' position and back to the 'auxiliary' position four times. *This must be done fairly quickly. If you have done it correctly, you will hear a chime.

3) Turn the ignition switch to 'OFF' position.

4) Remove the key from the ignition.

5) To program the transmitter, press any key within ten seconds. **If it worked, you should hear another chime.

6) Close the door...YOU'RE DONE!

To replace the rear parking sensor on a Jaguar X-Type, first, ensure the vehicle is turned off and safely secured. Remove the rear bumper cover by unscrewing the necessary bolts and clips, then disconnect any wiring harness attached to the sensor you want to replace. Carefully twist and pull out the old sensor from its housing and insert the new sensor, reconnect the harness, and reattach the bumper cover. Finally, test the new sensor to ensure it's functioning properly.

To manually tune the radio in a 2003 Jaguar X-Type, first, turn on the ignition and press the "Media" button to access the radio function. Use the "Tune" knob or the "Seek" buttons to adjust the frequency manually until you find the desired station. You can also enter the frequency directly using the numeric buttons if your model supports it. Once you've found the station, you can save it by pressing and holding one of the preset buttons.

I just replaced mine, just behind the top of the radiator, a hose runs from left to right. This hose is also just below the air filter box and the battery box and therefore difficult to see. Just about at the right end of the air filter box the hose has a hard plastic T pipe that branches off in a downward direction. At the lower end of this you'll find the thermostat mounted on a triangular flange and held in place with 3 bolts. The output of this then transitions into about 4" length of hose again before transitioning to an matal pipe that is kind of J shaped. The lower 4" section of hose is held in place by two spring clips, these are a pain to get to by the way. I found it easiest to remove the hose from the thermostat with it still bolted in place, similarly I bolted the new thermostat in place before replacing the hose. This way you have something relatively solid to pull or push the hose against. With that said the J pipe is also a tight fit in the space so none of this is easy to get to, it doesn't help that there is some kind of sensor mounted on the engine just adjacent to the J pipe.

For reference mine is a 2003 2.5L engine.

One more thought! I recently had the water pump replaced and therefore assumed the thermostat was responsible for my overheating. Having just replaced the thermostat and refilled with fluid I just found one of the pipe connections on the coolant reservoir had broken off resulting in a loss of pressure therefore allowing the coolant to boil. Unfortunately I didn't fill it before hand assuming it was the stat and not wanting to have all that fluid drain when I took the stat off. So my thermostat replacement efforts were likely all for nothing!

There is a mopre complete description at jaguarforums.com, but essentially you have to remove the bottom cover just under the front end, 16 or so screws. then you need to "fish" a pole or rod to the bottom of the latch. There is a feature on the botom of the latch that needs to be pushed from passenger side to driver side and the latch will pop.

Before starting this I would suggest you make sure the cable is broken. It is common for winter driven X types to have their cables rust, I sometimes have to hold my release lever for 8-10 seconds before the hood latches will pop - good luck.

This light means you have serious problem with your engine, get it to a mechanic!

Remove all the screws underneath the front of the car that hold the plastic skirt on. Then remove the screws nearest the front of the car that are in the front wheel wells holding the plastic panels in. Lastly remove the bolts at the top of the bumper assembly near the headlights that hold the bumper snug to the front frame. Pull gently outwards on each side of the bumper to disengage then pull forward. If you have foglights installed you should disconnect the wiring from each one before pulling the bumper completely away from the car. Reverse process to install.

The "S" button (if it is like the one in my my XJ8) likely switches the transmission into "Sport" mode. Sport mode will require the transmission to run into the top-end engine RPM of the individual gear.

On the right interior of the steering wheel, there is an on/off switch and a stop/resume switch for the cruise control

Trouble code P1646 means: Linear O2 Sensor Control Chip (Bank 1)

The outside air vent is stuck in the close position, so no fresh air is entering, you're just recirculating the inside air. The motor, located behind the glove box, is working but has become striped where it connects to the vent flap. Jaguar has a TSB explaining how to fix with "krazy glue." Or you can manually open the vent by accessing it from the engine bay behind the cabin filter. If you go this route, just remember not to use the recirculating switch.

You can use synthetic is any internal combustion engine. You can even mix it with conventional oil.

Press and hold the mode button with the radio on. This will bring up a screen, select 12 or 24 hour scale, depending on what your preference is...press mode again...now enter the time with the keypad, using a "0" before the hour,if the hour is not in double digits. Press mode again...Now use the # button to change from AM to PM. Hope this helps!

Fixed it! The PROM chip in the computer was not getting a good connection. The previous owner spent $1000 to fix it, I guess he took it to the wrong shop?!
