Why won't the 1994 jaguar xj6 shift from second gear?

it's probably in third gear which is "limp home mode" on jags. that means there is probably a loose connection or short in the electronic transmission

I would check the relays up by the passenger side fire wall. If they're blue or purpple ect.. any other colour other than black they need to be replaced! They allow moisture in and effect the system. That should do it unless it's a major transmission/electrical problem. This is the most likely and cheapest to fix at 12 per relay I believe there is 4 up there and I fail to remember which one is for the trans.

How do you fix fault code P1621?

Fault code P1621 typically indicates an issue with the engine control module (ECM) or its communication with other modules. To fix this code, start by checking the wiring and connectors related to the ECM for any damage or corrosion.

How do you remove rear struts on 1991 Lumina?

I recently had my rear struts changed, and my advice is to break down and pay the mechanic, my dad used to do almost all of my mechanic work, but he wouldn't touch the struts as they required special tools and a four wheel alignment after installation.

ANSWER

I changed the rear struts on my 1991 Lumina. It is relatively simple actually. You need to remove the rear tire then remove the two mounting bolts connected up by the top of the trunk. then compress the cylinder. After that you need a size 24 metric socket to remove where the strut is mounted behind the brake. After that, insert the new one and connect it behind the brake. Then attach the strut at the top. Be sure to install a new mounting kit when replaceing your struts. A new mounting kit will save a lot of wear and tear on the new struts. be sure to properly torque down the mounting bolts.

What are the measurements for correctly fitting a Jaguar Leaper on bonnet of X type?

I have just fitted a spring loaded leaper to my x type in Sydney Australia so perfectly legal in Oz .If you lift the hood you will see a hole just directly behind the bonnet spring it sis approx 140mm up from the front grill .It corresponds with a hole behind the latch plate for the bonnet pull.This top hole is where the spring for the leaper needs to sit .

I used a rubber 34mm door stop which has a pre drilled hole through it ,and pushed it into the hole ,using it as a template/guide for the pilot hole .I taped the area around the bonnet with masking tape so the paint didnt split .I drilled through the door stop from underneath the bonnet ,then closed the bonnet and drilled larger holes until I eventually got up to 18mm which the leaper requires .You then drill the smaller locator hole .Clean all dross off surfaces and touch up with primer .The leaper comes with a self adhesive gasket ,however I added more gasket glue just to be on the safe side .Tighten up plastic washer and that's it .Hope this helps ,because I couldn't find anything when I was looking

Where is the fuel pump shut off switch for a 1996 jaguar xj6 vaden plas?

The fuel inertia switch is located on the left side of the drivers side footwell.

You cannot see it but it is a large vertical rubber button at the far back of the footwell behind the fusebox. Make sure it is pressed down or the fuel pump will not run causing your car to not start. You will have to feel around for it for a while with your finger.

You cannot unlock trunk on 84 jaguar xj6?

Had the same problem with a 1995 XJ6. Try spraying lots of WD40 through the key hole, leave for an hour, spray again then wiggle the key gently until it opens! It might be worth taken the lock out and giving it a thorough clean (I did and it's sweet as a nut!)

How do you remove a stereo from a 1988 Jaguar XJ6?

Each of the four doors had a 3.5" Phillips. The two under the back seat were 4". You need to remove the door panels to get to the speakers. Good instructions in the book by Hayes (I recommend this because there are several tricks to get to the hidden screws). Once door is completely disassembled you can access the speaker to remove and it is easy to simply cut away the foam and put a 4"coax in the same space. From the car there is no noticeable difference as you don't have to change the grills at all. Under the rear seat you can replace with 5.25" coax but it requires drilling new screw holes and using after market grills

What fuel injector cleaner is bet for a 2002 jaguar 3.0 x type?

The effectiveness of standalone fuel system cleaners is questionable and it can be hard to get the dilutions correct.

That said, most major brands may have a positive effect and are unlikely to cause any harm.

A better option may be to try a premium fuel from the mojor brands such as Shell V-power, BP Ultimate etc. This have very similar claims for cleaning properties and have the advantage of already being correctly dosed. They are typically only a small percentage dearer than standard fuel. The extra cost per tank will typically be less than a bottle of standalone cleaner.

1986 xj6 jaguar cruiser control not working any idea?

The vacuum servo in the engine bay is usually the cause, the seal on this item, which looks like a round accordion, is leaking. To fix, put a plastic tie around each end so that the rubber is held snug to the two end plates.

If a leak was the issue this will fix it.

How do you know if oil filter is dirty on my jaguar 1996 xj6?

Seriously? Is the oil dirty then the filter is dirty. Change it every 3-4k miles! On my 88 XJ6 I change it ever 4k miles since it does hold 8 quarts, on my 94 XJ12 I change it ever 6k miles as it holds 11 quarts. If you drive it like a race car in the dead of summer change it more often, if its really dirty before the miles are up then change it anyways. It's the most important thing to do for these old gals.
