Replying to: staz1 (Jul 04, 2009 7:45 pm) Too cool! I just bought the same car 04 X-Type with 60k for under $10k. Wipper does not make a loud Thumpin sound, the bottom of the drive side blade for the wipper did skip a little. Heck, go out and get some new blades most people forget about their blades. They're only suppose to last for a couple months. I change them each time I get an oil change.   BTW- I have four people in the car on hill at a light, I held the clutch out slightly to "rock the craddle" (as I have done for at least10 other cars I've owned) bad news, I burned the clutch. It was the strangest thing, smelled like a dead animal. Fair warning. :O

Replying to: oldcem (Apr 26, 2009 8:34 pm) I am currently evaluating a 2003 XType with 65K miles. Asking price is $9900. Concerned about quality of vehicle, maintenance issues long term, and whether its a good car. I can get the economics aligned, just concerned about the quality of vehicle. Sounds like you have some great insight. Thanks Replies to this message: possum61 (Aug 10, 2009 1:03 pm) oldcem (Aug 16, 2009 7:58 pm)

Replying to: dad44 (Aug 10, 2009 12:50 pm) I didn't run either of my X's up to that many miles. From looking at the Jaguar forums - the major concern with the one you're considering would be getting the transfer case lube changed. Jaguar says they're filled for life, but, they've been known to fail and they're expensive. You can research it on the regular Jaguar forums.   Regards: OldCEM

Replying to: gr8cat (Apr 17, 2009 11:42 am) I purchased a 2004 X-type about 5 years ago and had no problem as of today. It still runs and looks like new. I've changed the tires to 18" (225/40ZR18) and I feel the road more now but it handles like a cat, love it. Replies to this message: alison4 (Aug 30, 2009 5:54 pm)
#2559 of 2563 2004 X-TYPE HEADLIGHTS.... HELP! by alison4 Aug 30, 2009 (5:52 pm)
I had very dim headlights on my car, so I switched to GE Nighthawks. They have been nothing but trouble, shutting out coming back on when I hit a bump. Are they to high a wattage for the car?. What wattage should I be looking for. Does anyone have any recommendations??. I will have to take it in to get them changed, but I'd like to take the correct bulbs with me to ensure that I dont end up with the wrong type again.....

Replying to: petezxr (Aug 16, 2009 8:11 pm) You must have replaced the headlights by now?... What type of bulbs have worked for you?... I know the Nighthawks dont work   Thanks, Alison
