Replying to: desertguy (Jun 23, 2006 12:25 pm) Question for you all. I am set to pick up my car after a long 7 month wait this week. I'm sure they will try to sell me an extended warranty. What do you all think about the warranties...are they worth it...or are non-dealer warranties better? Also, any other oddities that you all have bought for your X-types that you would recommend? Thanks in advance.

Replying to: desertguy (Jun 25, 2006 8:04 am) You mentioned negotiating price. I was unaware that you could negotiate an insurance premium. Are there sites like this one that tell you the going rates...or what you SHOULD pay for these types of policies? I am all about negotiating if it is possible...I simply didn't know it was an option for warranties. Please advise. Thanks

I was just up on the Jaguar site and they're offering 1.9% financing on all, in stock, 2006 X-Types! They must have a few in the inventory they need to push before new models start arriving. Also, while I was at the local dealership last Friday, they are saying (like it has been posted on this site before) that 2008 will be the last year for the X-Type.

I have an 02 X-type Jag 2.5 Sport (manual) with 55k miles and started hearing a whining noise from the rear of the car. I replaced the tires recently (my third set - OEM Contis were replaced by Kumho Ecsta ASXs at 20k and Avon Techs at 53k)). The car was very quiet during my first trip after I got the new set of tires (400 miles). This noise appeared at ~54k and I do not think that it is tire noise, although I may be wrong. I have the extended Jaguar warranty so I will take it to the dealer - I hope it is covered. This noise reminds me the noise I had in my old Volvo whuch was fixed by replacing the driveshaft bearing. It was not very difficult as I recall - I did it myself. Any ideas or suggestions are most welcome! Thanks TJM

Thanks to all who have posted. Picked up an '05 sedan yesterday. (Premium pkg and heated seats) I have spent all day cleaning/polishing. It is gray w/charcol. I'm not sure of the color name, since it is lighter than Quartz, but seems darker than the platinum '06 that I looked at. Maybe the dark interior makes it seem darker? Any thoughts? I have a set of mudflaps on order for both the front and rear. I know that they ruin the look, somewhat, but they sure are functional.  Anybody have good/bad experiences with Jagbits.com?
