Default 2002 XK8 and 2009 XF owner looking to learn new things.

Hello All,

I purchased my first Jaguar being a 2009 XF when it was new and could not tell you how many times it was in the shop, thankfully under warrantee. If I were in my right mind I would have returned it on the lemon law. Crazy me, lol, I love it though. I love the looks and how it drives, I just did't like it being in the shop.

This last year I purchased a used 2002 XK8 and I love it as well so now I have two Jaguars. As you all know, there is nothing like a Jag and the way it feels, looks and drives.

Now neither one is under warantee and I would like to learn to do some of the more simple repairs myself if possible but I need help and that is where we all come together to help eachother out on here. Well, most will help me more than I can help them I'm sure so I thank all of you in advance.

Respectfully,
