2009 Jaguar XJ-Series - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

I can tell you upfront you must check your variable valve timing solenoids..codes p1396 and 1384 as for code po197/198 thats your engine oil temp sensor.po102 check your mass air flow meter connection right behind the air filter housing where the air duct elbow is located.The sensor could be bad.p0112 intake air temp sensor code.ok the p1224 is the throttle postion control sensor.make sure your battery is good...seems like these codes are related to low voltage also...but 1st make sure your fix that oil leak.

if 740097DN are the last 8 digits of the vin, it is a 2007.

Here in the state of Texas yes, if over two year's.

I have been with same problem on a BMW 325i.
It is because you need to add oil. Less oil= extrem temperature!
try to add oil, better to change oil and filter.
regards

maybe its leaking where the filler neck is ck while fueling

It takes a deal of time and patience to charge via the cigarette lighter socket though there should soon have been enough power to open the boot. It should be possible to access the end of the main battery lead in the engine compartment in order to jump start the engine, provide power to open the boot or to charge the battery, if the battery is healthy enough to accept a charge. Some cars with a remote battery provide terminals for the purpose though I don't know whether the Jag does. If it doesn't the main battery cable terminates at the starter motor.

the wiring around the trunk/boot hinge may be broken/opencircuit. the security system thnks the trunk/boot is open use the manual key to get in to the trunk and repair the wiring

This in the center console un the armrest.

Possible intermittent power connection to A/C compressor clutch or maybe overcharged, if it does not work on very hot days, pressures may exceed cutout limit.

Loss of compression can be due to a bent head, bent valve not closing all the way, bad head gasket, hole in the piston, dropped piston, bad or broken piston rings, compression checked on cylinder with valve in the open position.

30 psi. front and 26 psi. rear. Hope this helps.

Stop by any good parts store (Autozone, Advance, etc...) and have them do a FREE OBII scan. (fault scan) they can pull the codes that triggered computers light and identified what needs to be replaced.

hydraulic tappets by the sound of it ,three squirts of fairy liquid into engine oil and some diesel say about half a pint then run engine for a couple of days then when noise stops change the oil and filter ,if oil hasnt been changed for ages then when hot and ready to change add some more diesel say a litre then let engine idle for ten minutes and then drop oil .then change oil every 6000 miles with a oil filter every thrid oil change ,Use the cheapest oil you can buy say a 10/40 but even a monograde of 30 or 40 will do ,do not use expensive long life oil as it just causes the engine to clagg up inside bolcking the oil ways causing this sort of problem ,if in the uk then shell rotella is a reasonable priced oil and its a good oil

Under the drivers side dash. Right of the steering column.

my 1991 Jaguar XJ6 Sovereign will not start...just get alarm..what do i do?

You need to contact a dealer with your VIN# to get the code for the radio or search in your manual it might have been written there. It a four digit that is enter on the radio programable buttons

If you go to faxonautoliterature you can get the dealer service manual for that specific Jag. It should have the complete wire harness diagram in it. A quick e-mail can confirm it. Or they also have a reprint wiring diagram from a Jag manual that you can also get for yours. I have used them before and had excellent service. Hope this helps.

just a thought.
could also be car not recognising the key,have you disconnected the battery?if so reset the alarm immobiliser.
