SOURCE: On the 2000 jaguar s-type, what is, Cats system

Cats was a optional extra from the factory. It is adaptive damping. It basicialy softens or stiffens the shock absorbers to your driving style.

It may seem that one of your shock absorbers has developed a internal pressure fault. A local garage with a code reader can tell you wich shock absorber to check. Would be worth checking the electrical connectors that plug into the top of the shock absorber to make sure they are not damaged.

Look's like you may need a new shock absorber

Have 2000 S type jaguar with CATS warning. Jaguar says module maybe bad but cannot replace because serial number is worn and modules are specific to individual car. how to fix?
in this day and age items are made by companies other than the car manufacturer and assembled on an assembly line
It would be strange and exceedingly costly to have custom modules made for each car so the statement from the dealer is suspect
I would be inclined to go somewhere else and have the fault codes read to find the exact fault (may be bad doesn't cut it) and then source a new module if it is faulty and have it reset in the car

I have a 2001 Jaguar S-Type. Suspension is out & dashboard msg reads "CATS Systems Fault". Located the ADCM, but don't see any corrosion at connectors. Could fixing be as simple as replacing the ADCM?
the adaptive damping system, adcm. is linked to the abs system. it controles the valves in the shock absorbers to make the suspension hard or soft and i think it adaptes to how you drive. you should take your car to someone with suitable diagnostic equipment to get the fault codes out of the system, the problem is more than likely one of the shock absorbers. the system defaults to hard suspension when a fault is present and puts that warning on. hope that is helpfull.

I have a 2001 Jaguar Stype and i recently took my car to the mechanics to have the suspension changed. Once i turned on my car the sign saying CATS System fault appeared,what might be causing that to...
the new suspension may not have the necessary sensor and so the wire was not connected . Or the wire to the sensor was not connected.. It may be necessary to reset the CPU after the change.

GEARBOX FAULT MESSAGE
i had the same problem with my s-type, when i went to jaguar dealer for diagnostic and they told me it was trans problem, need new trans and will cost me $4500 to fix it, so i think you will be better off looking for a salvage trans to put it in your car, it will cost you around $1500-$2500 including labor. i hope that will help some of you with gear box fault massage. oh try and find some one who knows a lot about jaguar before you send the car for trans repairs.
