Also the rear suspension links can cause a similar noise. On the channel watch JR Go, he too has just bought a Jaguar S-Type , in white.He’s repairing his suspension issues now...🐆
With regards to the Headlining, I replaced mine with headlining material from Ebay for around $60 on my xj6 series 2. I kept the "biscuit " in but removed old liner and cleaned off the foamy residue. Working from the back window I glued 1 foot at a time, using a small paint roller to iron it out until I reached the front. Once dry cut excess off and put up trim. The trick is to wait for the glue to get tacky before applying the material to the headliner biscuit (about 3-4minutes). I used a spray on glue for headliner from Supercheap, has to be heat resistant.
Hi Clayton Yes have done a few. All my Jags need new headlinings but not my favorite job. Also have plenty of material in stock yet to be used. Best glue is 3M headling glue
Trunk warning is more than likely the wires by the driver side hinge of the trunk/boot . . Somebody attempted repairs to mine before owning and wires need lengthened . . Just wire fatigue . .
Just a little bit of TLC and maintenance and hey presto you have something worth while. Great stuff TJM. Thanks for the video, I am a little jealous of your ventures. Oh well, great to watch though. 😉😉👍👍
Do a brake test so that abs pump motor spins. Only that way you can be sure that the code from it won't come back. There has been many failures on s-type abs modules where pump motor starts to spin 24/7 and kills the pump and the car goes to trash. Module is repairable.
Hi Sami All faults codes were due to the flat battery. Seems all good now, fingers crossed! My x300 still has a fault believed to be the module. Still working on it aaaggghh! Thanks for watching
I'm now wondering if the slight clunk my s type has is the same problem to a lesser degree, better check those top mounts... Will dig out the stereo code and post it in a comment just in case it might help. Thanks for the video.
I envy the black inside my has the creamie poo colour. If you figure out how to unlock the radio do tell me for the codes press and hold 1 and 6. If you can give us another tip my airbag light keeps flashing and won't turn off
Good on you for saving her from the crusher.
Thanks

Good luck to the saved Jag! Cheers!
Thanks 👍

@@tjmthejagmandownunder really enjoy your video, and you drive the jags rather than for jag days, even better.
thanks Clayton!
What is the "biscuit" you mention here?
@@paulsz6194 think it's the backing board
Great result!
Thank you! Cheers!

1 and 6 will give you the serial number. Bloody airbags! Still haven't fixed my x300 one yet! May stick with older models
