RE: Air Conditioner, A Mind of its own
Problem solved it was a fuse relay position r6 inside the engine compartment fuse box. I checked the amount of freon and it was full and than got out ramps to check the compressor and than checked a fuse before getting under to get a look...I am ecstatic! Plus I don't even have to go get a fuse relay because as all quirks go in my car the horn only works when it wants too!

That is nice that the problems solved, just make sure you keep a rock or something heavy in the car for when someone cuts you off so u can throw it at them j/k. Oh yeah just make sure you dont put the windows down too long cos all the cold air from the ac will get out

No I wanted to look at it pretty bad but I really have my mind set on the s-type r for the next vehicle we get. If I get rid of my x right now I wouldn't be able to drive the r here in michigan in the winter. I'd like to get one with a warranty but I don't think that would be very smart as of right now Jim...Thanks for remembering though!

However, you even think about leavin the X forum and we'll come lookin for ya[:@]....k?
You'll have to become the second Honoray X type member along with Biggie.........In fact you guys could start a whole new forum within the forum.....lol

Thats a real good question, but i think the reason is becaure i dont think many people wud be willin got pay 15k to 20k more for a supercharged car, when the nonspuercharged one costs 35k. Although an X-type R wud prolly give the M3 a good run for it money, similar price range (the e46, not the 2008 model which is going to cost around +70k)

I also thought like you but I believe it would be a great experience for brand new Jag Owners who offer a bimmer M3 performance in their X Type .
Also, I said this because all other Jaguar model line up has a supercharged version such as XJR ,S TR and XKR

I'm sorry to point out the obvious, but if the X has as many problems as it does now, just imagine if it were to have another 200 HP? The X was made to offer an affordable Jag to the average person. Not to take the M series beemer and whoop it! To be honest though, I think that the X type R would be quite a hit, but who knows if they'd keep it AWD. They'd probably have to make a different tranny since these are so frail!

Frail on the earlier ones...oh wait I have an earlier one....shhhhhh.....
Hey Jimmy I wouldn't sell the x thats why I was kind of hesitant in getting another x that is more expensive than mine right now...I will have both if it goes my way and not too many things are broken down on the x...like I said as long as I'm living in Michigan the x-type will always be parked in my driveway!
I guarantee that if the x wasn't awd they probably would have built an x-type r...but there'd be wayyyyy too much money into the development of a stronger drivetrain alone to make the x R worth it...they could however look to mitsubushi and the development of the lancer considering that is awd and puts out some nice numbers for power and it is awd...
