Bought a 2003 jaguar S-type 4.2L V8 about 8 months ago. I have never been more happy with a car. I'm a long time car collector and have always wanted a jag, so when i got the chance to buy this one i was thrilled. I have owned muscle cars and luxury cars but this thing is a beast, so much so that it almost scares me. I hit 135 mph a few months ago on the highway and didn't even realize it until i looked at the speedo. Beautifully smooth ride. Can't wait until some jerk wants to race me from a light, that'll be a good show! Gotta get it back in full working condition again first though. Please check out my other post and help in any way you can!

Aloha new guy! Welcome to the forums, i bet the s-type guys will steer you in the right direction. Also, that 4.2L engine is in the 2003-2006 XK8/XKRs also. and same transmission, so don't be afraid to expand your search to that subforum also when looking for 'common' drivetrain symptoms and solutions.
