New Jag owner in Texas
Hello everyone! My name's Adam, and I bought a 2006 XJ8 L last month, and I absolutely love it. I had never really thought of owning a Jaguar, but my wife always wanted one, so I started looking for one to replace my Nissan Xterra. Fell in love with this one and now want an XJS to rebuild. Of course, my wife won't drive the Jaguar, because that means that she would have to give up the CTS-V that was supposed to be mine. Oh well. She does like being driven around in it.
Only problem I have right now is that I think the air suspension compressor is dead or dying. Lately with the coldish weather, I frequently get the "Vehicle too low" and "Air suspension fault" messages, though they usually go away after a couple restarts. Where can I get a new/rebuilt compressor for cheap? I can do the work myself, I'm sure, just need the part.
Anyhow, this looks like a great place with a lot of information.
