2001 Jaguar XJ8 - Page 3 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

First read your owners manual, it should instruct you there.

I have a 91 XJ6 and have some experience with these Jaguars. First, do you have power to the radio? Does anything light up on the radio? If you have power you will need to go to a local dealership with the car and proof of ownership and the should be able to get the code for the radio. If you do not have power then check the fuse and wiring for a bad connection or bad fuse. Good luck, Ken.

Yeah it does. There are left and right blower motors but both route to one blender. whichs directs the air to either the defrost, floor, panel etc....

Hi More info is needed to diagnose your problem.

got to be at the front of the engine driven by a belt ,i know where it is on my jag and if i looked under the bonnet i would soon see it thats for sure but its late now and its been a couple of years since i worked on this model

yes u can , make sure the car is cold, you will have to remove the coolant expansion tank...at the bottom it has connection hose with a clip pin,Remove the clip pin,and to the side beneath their is a sensor,disconnect the sensor..then up top disconnect the upper coolant connection line,you will have two screws on some maybe three securing the tank,remove them,the tank will come out,replace with new tank reconnect the bttom hose and retaining clip,and then sensor,then the upper coolant line.Then fill with cooalnt crank the car ,turn the ac on on high,remove the bleed screw while car is running as you fill it up with coolant, continue filliung until the reservoir is up to the full mark and all bubbles have stopped coming out of the bleed whole...then put the bleed screw back,and the coolant cap...

which fuse box are you refereing to...You have 1 under the hood,then a passenger side kick panel box,and a rear fuse box in the trunk near the spare tire.

the brakes are pretty much just like any car,remove the fluid reservoir cap,then the tires,then disconnect the neg term on the battery,remove the calibers,then compress with a c clamp,then install,..the bearing are removed by releasing the hub assembly by removing the axle bolts and pin, i will send pictures Monday if need be...once the bearings are replaced make sure the hub isnt overtightened...and put the reservoir cap back on the brake unit...

Your car has no transmission dip stick, you will have to have the dealer service the trans, it requires special tools to fill trans.

Take you Jag in for its 6 Mon/1 yer maintenance schedule check up for the can rest the light. This engine light will come on when the vehicle has reached certain mileage and/or time interval.


Unless, if the vehicle is have some other problems, like fuel pump, it not running the correctly, ERG valve is out, O2 sensor is bad, etc. But if your Jaguar XJ8 is doing just dandy. Then it need to be other type of service; such as, coolant changed, differnial fluid needs to be changed, or the automatic transmission also needs to be changed. GB...stewbison

you need to check your dsc fuse,make sure it will engage on and off from the button....if it wont then check the fuse.If the fuse is fine then the module will have to be replaced.

The red light is for warning the amber is for caution so your caution light is on thats the amber the amber is reserved for local market like brake pads,oil change,or abs that affects steering stability, The information is exclusive only your driver handbook will define it

I have the same problem few days ago, and still didn't find any solution. Can any one please help?????

Naturally it is in the transmission, and probably in the torque converter.

I would check the motor mounts, they could be worn or broken.
