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?

FYI, according to a dealer that I visited, you can only get either the $5K dealer cash OR the 1.9% financing. NOT Both! Even though, I did not buy the '06, it was an extremely nice experience. Called ahead and checked inventory and showed up on Saturday afternoon, dressed in shorts and t-shirt and unshaven. (Yes, I was being a bum.  ) Salesman met me at the cars with a tag and gave the keys to me and told me to have fun. "Don't come back until you really drive the car" No copy of driver's license, no personal information, just my name over the phone and my hometown (about 90 miles away). Totally blew me away! Keys to a $38K MSRP vehicle and full tank of gas without any of the expected hassles. |

Hello Friends, I just negotiated a price on 2003 Jaguar, $17,000 just turned 18k when i was test driving it. All the time gauraged and non-smoker, OCD type lady driven so it is in mint condition. Your thoughts on this .....Take It or Leave It. Positive Factors: Low mileage Still smells new Lady Driven and Gauraged Negative Factors: Scary Consumer Reports (They saying avaoid it just like plague) Based on your user experience and a small nore TAKE IT or LEAVE IT will be apprecaited. Thanks in advance.

Anyone has input or expereince with extending warranty with Jag dealers? how did it go? I checked in all above websites... it is around 20-21,000 with that kind of mileage.
