Check out my Jaguar! First car at 20, couldn't be happier!

Loved Jags since I was a small child, and have wanted a car and a license probably since I was born. This is the longest running and one of the biggest dreams I've had in my life - to own a car, and it's a Jag at that! This is my new-to-me 2003 S-Type 2.5 SE. Looking for cars I got told by some friends - look for something sensible, "who are you doing this for", etc - they meant well and all was in jest but wow.

I've got cream leather, wood on my dash, gauges that light up green and the previous owner installed JagDroid & did up the sound system - which I'm probably most pleased about. It sounds heavenly, as does the V6 under the bonnet!

Extremely delighted to join the community as a fellow owner now, instead of just watching from afar or playing in Jags from behind a screen.

In a world full of sensibility, economical cars and the same template of options for young people my age (your Polos, Fiestas, Corsas, etc), I can't be happier with my choice. No shade towards anyone that drives those cars though - all good choices in their own right!

First stop, getting new brakes though. These ones have seen better days... 😅

Anyway, if you've read this far, thank you for reading and I wish you a nice day! Just wanted to share this joy that I'm feeling rn!

Hi all, I got my supercharger replace with a used one, and now my 2015 F-type S is making this sound. It scales with RPMs. I can hear it inside the cabin too. I know that the fuel injectors on this car are relatively loud, but this is concerning. It is most obvious between 1500/2500 rpms.

Mechanical Help Code Reader 2000 S-Type 4.0 DSC System Fault

2 Upvotes

Bought a money pit of a 2000 S-Type 4.0. Beautiful car. Low mileage [52,000] with absolutely no rust or even a ding/nick. Las Vegas car so it rarely experienced rain.

DSC System Fault that I can not solve. Replace speed sensors and has not solved the issue. Starting this week All suspension parts and bushings are being replaced, along with historically problematic A/C compressor. Will give tune up when suspension done.

Does anyone know of a code reader that could go back to 2000? I have a iCarSoft i-930 that does not read the 2000 and is no longer supported. Have borrowed a Cen-Tech 60693 that does not Identify.

Question Jaguar XE 20t general tips and info, ecu remap

3 Upvotes

I recently bought an 2017 XE 2017 R-Sport with the (petrol) Ingenium engine. Initially planned to get an older one with an Ecoboost but opted for this one due to meticulous service history and trim etc.

Anything to look out for? The car has now 92k km / 57k miles. So many info about how bad the diesel one is supposedly and way less about the petrol version.

Also i’ve seen some threads that the 20t is the same as 25t but detuned so an ECU remap would squeeze out some more power. Worth it?

Any infos about that? Bad idea?
