Hi there,
If anyone has had a similar issue or can give any advise that would be greatly appreciated.
My 2007 XK will not turn over. the spark plugs get spark for 2 seconds, then nothing. I have changed the battery, checked the fuel pump, cleaned the plugs and coils, changed the break switch, checked electrical connections......I am completely out of ideas. I have run diagnostics and tried everything i can think of. has any one disabled the security system?
any help would be greatly appreciated before i burn the car!!!!!!

Hello,
I'm sorry for the problem you're having with your Jag. They do get hair ball fits sometimes and it's Very annoying.
But before you stuff a rag in the gas tank and light it off (something I've threatened more than once) go to the section where GGG has directed you and ask members there.
Almost NO problem happens to these cars that one of us hasn't encountered and resolved.
I wish you success.
