My jag x type 02 wont open the gas lid and i am stuck coz it need re fueling. can someone please help

the instument pack is part of the pats. security system i guess the pack is saying pecus error, it needs to be programmed to the car so the other modules on the system recognise it, you need find someone with jaguar ids or compatiable diagnostic equipment to carry out this task.hope this helps.

Check your fuel pump. It could also be vapor locked so leave the gas lid open for a while. Also may need new air filter

well you could pull the lever to pull the gas tank while you have someone just gently push the back of the lid. if that don't open it then your cable to your gas tank is broken

Try and bump the top of the engine or just have some one hold the release latch and lift up on the engine until it pops open.

IM SORRY BUT THAT IS FUNNY.

No seriously now.....if the release in the trunk wont work then the relaese may be stuck, frozen, or broken.

While you are pulling the one in the trunk, you or someone else use something like a small screwdriver to pop the lid open, then leave it open till you find out whats wrong with the release.

By the way, just so you know, those gas doors will not stop anyone from syphoning your gas. A screwdriver will pop that door open in 1/2 second, its more cosmetic and a slight deterent.

Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/sean_54c3a3dc48a7773c

Jaguar recommends the highest grade of gas for the best overall performance. usually this is between 91 and 95 octane, however many of our Jaguar customers just put the mid- or low grade fuel in the car. Now you can do this but the performance and in most cases the gas mileage wont be as good as the premium gas.
The way I see it is if jaguar did all that testing and engineering for that car and they came to the conclusion that it works best with high octane then i would do it. But hey, its your choice, i hope i helped you out.

it sounds like you have a broken cable that connects from the inside of the car to the release of the gas tank. now the other release ( you said the book says is in the trunk on the lefthand-side ) it is probably under the lining of the trunk because most of them are not in plan sight for you to see.

I THINK THERE IS A STRING IN THE TRUNK ON WICHEVER SIDE THE FUEL DOOR IS AT

I have a 02 x type jag. the dash is telling me the boot is open even though its not, because of this this the central locking or alarm wont work and the interior light is on permanently ??

BEFORE YOU GO AND SPEND THE MONEY AN A KNOCK SENSOR I WOULD GO AND GET A FUEL PRESSURE TEST. IF YOU ARE LUCKY IT MAY BE STARVING FOR FUEL AND COULD BE AS SIMPLE AS A FUEL FILTER
