Question Old Jaguar XJ8

Have had this Jag from new since 2003, now live in France so need some help Have one or two things that are not working properly, so hopefully someone on here can give me some advice.

My first problem is starting. I parked up a week or so ago, went to use the car and no response at all. Thought it might be the battery (fairly new) but charged it anyway, still nothing happening except the motor fan is whirring.Tried jump starting it from another car. Nothing. Any suggestions?

I am also getting intermittently warning lights coming on. Air suspension, not working but it is. The engine block warning light comes and goes

Welcome to the forum Colin,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums. You must have one of the first X350's.


Nothing happening - not even turning over or not firing?

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...-x350-x358-28/ to the X350 forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. 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 visit the Europe Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/europe-42/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
