I had this problem about a year ago on my 2004 S Type diesel. It's not uncommon and the end result was that it's a wiring fault in the front wiring harness. This is a major hassle to fix and involves taking the fron bumper off. The Jag main dealer did this but the problem came back. I checked other forums and it seems there was a batch of rogue wiring harneeses which Jag bought cheap from Romania in 2004 and fitted to S types. These had moisture in them when manufactured so eventually most of the wires corrode over time - but from the inside! Jag know about this but will not fix under warranty. I ended up spending £1200 to have a whole new front wiring harness fitted - problems gone away now.
