#2358 of 2563 Re: Price and Clutch [likintheleaper] by axiomlover Mar 06, 2006 (12:16 pm)
Replying to: likintheleaper (Feb 28, 2006 7:01 pm) You have nothing to worry about the breaking or ABS. I experienced the same situation while breaking on an even/bumpy road. The system gets confused because the wheel disconnects with the road in an unusual way.   The whistle at 50 at 5th gear may be related to the manual transmission because I drove three different rental X-Types (autos) and none of them had the whistling. Besides, the whistle occurs in 5th gear only, which confirms my theory. If you bring it up to the dealer they will either not hear it or tell you that all manual X-Types do that.   I am glad you are liking your new ride!

Replying to: likintheleaper (Feb 26, 2006 7:47 pm) I have an '03 X-Type. I too have had clutch problems. If you plan to do any type of urban driving then you should not get this car. Once it's in 5th gear, no problem. I'm on my 3'rd clutch in 2 years. The dealer covered the first clutch replacement but balked on the second. I've noticed even after the recent clutch replacement there is still a tell tale smell of a slightly burnt clutch. I'm not sure if that is a residue from the prior clutch or not. If anyone has experienced the same thing, please comment.
#2360 of 2563 Click sound coming from the J-gate by azuber Mar 23, 2006 (12:04 pm)
Greetings - my jag 02 X-type has a clicking sound coming from the j-gate every time I press and release my brake. I'm guessing that its some kind of safety latch that is malfunctioning? Anyone know a fix? Also - do all Jag dealerships stink at customer service? Replies to this message: desertguy (Mar 23, 2006 3:25 pm)

Replying to: larryhart1 (Jan 22, 2006 10:10 pm) Sorry for the late reply - have you already recieved a response to your question about the front grill?   If not, I just replaced mine last night. You can find the parts on www.jaguarxp.com You'll need some robust cutters to get through that from grate but it looks really good when finished.

Replying to: azuber (Mar 23, 2006 12:04 pm) I had the clicking on my '02 as well. I think they called it the shift interlock solenoid or some such. The technician knew what it was right away so it must be common. It was not that my service was bad but it was 90 miles to the closest dealer so I had to plan my visits. Anyway, they ordered the part but never notified me it was in so I went at least 18 months with the clicking until I traded it in on an '05 XType Sport. Didn't seem to affect anything but a little annoying.
#2363 of 2563 Sound System Upgrade by tom213 Mar 24, 2006 (2:17 pm)
I have a 2006 X-Type that came with the standard (6 speaker) sound system. Needless to say, it doesn't sound the best. I would like to upgrade to the Alpine system. Anyone know what that would all require? I presume all new speakers (replacing the existing 6) and adding 4 more, where they go is another question, and I presume there is an amplifier involved somewhere. OR, has anyone else done a different type of upgrade to their sound system that might be better??
#2364 of 2563 Replacement key expense by KarenS HOST Mar 31, 2006 (10:24 am)
A national newspaper is looking to interview consumers who have had to replace a car key, which ended up costing over $200 or $300. Please send an e-mail to ctalatiedmunds.com no later than Monday, April 2, 2006 containing your daytime contact information, the cost to replace your key along with the make and model your vehicle.    Thanks, Chintan Talati Corporate Communications Edmunds.com

Replying to: vfr_cruze (Apr 05, 2006 7:40 am) To everyone!!! I put an octane booster and the humming noise at 30 and 60-70 mph was gone. I do not know if it will return but I will put 91 octane gas and see what happens. If there is any other info on cause of noise let me know. JJ

Hey, I just purchased a 2002 X-Type Sport but unfortunately did not get a manual with it and would like to know if anybody knows how to program the garage door opener and also what the second pull out setting on the headlight switch is for, I get an orange fog light display on the dash but have noticed no difference when the switch is out.   Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.
