Headlamp restoration, Testing HB Body Lens Clear and C496 2K Clearcoat Jaguar X-Type headlights
Recently, I was given a tin of LensClear by HB Body by the proprietor of TR Autos in Yeovil (find them here: tr-autos.co.uk/).
I like HB products - they are good quality and reasonably priced so it makes perfect sense to test their 2K lacquer against this new contender which promises to outperform it.
Let my test be your experience and feel free to share your views in the comments.

Jaguar X-Type V6 waterpump and thermostat install guide. Overheating issue solved!
Просмотров 1,5 тыс.11 месяцев назад
How I resolved the overheating issue on my 2003 Jaguar X-Type 3.0 V6. It's a basic guide on how to replace the water pump and thermostat. I'm not a trained mechanic so I hope this gives you the confidence to do your own work where you have to. If you're not confident replacing these components I always recommend using trained mechanics. As ever, thanks to Bensound.com/free-music-for-videos for ...

Jaguar X-Type; Which Halogen H1 bulbs do I buy? Osram vs Philips vs Halfords Advanced and more
Просмотров 1,7 тыс.Год назад
Which H1 lamp do I put in my X-Type? It's a question I hear so many times. Today we put into test the brands and models which feature a lot in the Facebook and forum discussions. The X-type has an awful halogen dip beam system so maximising its output is key to safe driving in the dark. Music: Bensound.com/royalty-free-music License code: TISUNASRL7B44KNF

    Most 2.1ltr models do not have the plasric engine covers. And when it comes to the GPS it's not a problem because we all have mobiles and "Waze" on my phone is my choice for a GPS, as it is good and I can also load it before I even get into my car, or just ask it on the way to the car. You can even buy a leaping cat phone clip to hold your phone on top of the dash, so you don't have to look dowm where it would be if you had the in car model.

    Good report. The 2.1 petrol is the best model for those who are not racing drivers and have to look after their own cars themselves. I have owned a 3ltr and it went like a rocket but it is unnecessary for general use, unless you are just a fan of having the most powerfull car just to talk about and or over push the boundries of the speed limits laws. And if you think it is a Mondeo you will belive anything and would likely be silly enough to vote for Trump.

MOT not due 'til Jan 2025 but I may take it for a check-over before then because I think the brakes are binding just a little bit.
