Talking Greetings from Texas!!

Hello World!

I am the proud owner of a 2.5L, 2003 X-Type with 199,987 miles!
Yes, not a typo, I have been able to maintain this car through good times and bad times. Granted, I have replaced a radiator or two, shocks absorbers, etc, but the cat keeps purring.
For the last 7-8 years I have been able to fix my issues by reading the forum, but to celebrate its 200,000 miles I decided to join y'all.
I will be tossing out the issues I see and ask for help very soon. I have a couple of items I need help with.

Thanks!

Welcome. Nice long term "love story"... The 2.5 liter V6 is supposed to make 220K miles; I suspect yours might go a mite further.

Hello,
At 200,000 miles that's not a bad replacement rate! Good Job keeping the old girl on the road!

Welcome to the forums fitousa,

Good to have you with us. Congratulations on an impressive milestone.

You've already found your way to the X-Type forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

I've added vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. If you want to change these, go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also use the US Southwest Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-southwest-37/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
