I have a 2000 Jaguar S-type v6 regular gas, the first issue was the battery, i got a new one and it worked fine, then when going uphill or when starting again in a green light the car loose power, i removed the coils and they where damped in oil i got the intake manifold to access the other side and also, the plugs were covered in oil ( at that point there was no smoking coming from the exhaust at all ) i was told that it may be the valv cover gaskets, so i replaced them (all 4, 2 each side ) i put everything in place again and the car started but it did feel shaking very bad, i got everything out and one of the coil cables got disconnected and the EGR pressure feedback sensor little hoses where broken so i did replace that as well, finally got everything together again and the car didn't started, the battery drained out ( it took me a few days to fix it and with the hood open and most of the times the doors as well y could die ) so i jumpstarted it and felt really good, i got it in reverse and as soon as i let the break go, the car shut off, i jump started again it really took too long to start but if finally did but there was a lot of smoke coming from the exhaust and it is overheating .... HELP !!!!
No hoses are disconnected or bent all plugs are in place, codes after the new gaskets : P0102, P0113, P0133, P0353, P1386, P1573, P1586 everything points to a leak in the air intake but why the overheating ? heat goes like 2 marks over the normal marking ( in the middle) and it stays there
- Whats the MIL ??? no ligths are flashing on the cluster
- wiring, hoses and connectors are in place and im not sure about the SKPL boss seals,
to be honest there is a big gasket a smaller square one and a bunch of rings
( i assumed they where to replace the screws rubber seals ).. i will attach a pic
- did not replaced the MIT o rings
- did replace the breather
did not check coolant and now that you mentioned it did leaked a lot when i took the TB, and of course i did not bleed it ( i know i should have done that but never occurred to me )

Ok i checked everything again and i found out not only that replacing the last spark plug the rubber piece of the SP socket got stuck over the spark plug and i didn't realize it, it was small enough to fit inside the coil pack so i didn't notice, but also the manifold tubes at the throttle body side were plugged and sealed with dirt... maybe that was the reason it was overheating got it all unplugged, and put everything back together , now the battery was completely dead since i started with this issue ( a week ago ) so i jump started it, it work but as soon as i disconnected the cables runs for a few minutes and died again, now it wont start, no matter what i do, not even jumping it it just sound like tac tac tac but it doesn't do anything, any ideas ??
