Hi everybody
I am Petz from Luxembourg
A month ago I bought my first Jaguar... finally
It's 2003 xj8 4,2 with just 200.000 miles , freshly cleaned and polished
Greetings

 

Looks a lovely car for that mileage, very nice. I hope there are no warning lights on ! Tell us more about the car.

 

Sure i got some orange lights on guess what Air suspension.
and engine (after changing the airfilter in its not totally sealing box)
New michelin tyres, brake discs and pads and oil had to be done right away
Engine oil, oilfilter , sparkplugs (oh deer) ,airfilter ,pollenfilter
couple of days later.
After I changed the xenon bulbs (right side flickering is gone now)and all the other bulbs in the front .Also changed the batterie while doing that and cleaned the mass connection.
The light output of the new xenon bulbs (0sram)is pretty lousy, might that come from 17-18 years cloudy glass on the inside or rather the module thats regulating
Greetings

 

Its common for the outside to go cloudy, and you can buy a kit to polish them and remove the cloudiness. I had to do this to my 2003 XJ6. I had no problem with the 2007 I bought a few years later.
You'll need the codes reading for the air suspension, but I'll bet the air compressor needs attention or replacement.

 

So far the air suspension is working ok , it drives fine . When I am starting the car i just wait like a minute, just to see what happens since the orange light is not constant or every day

 

Congratulations on your new to you Jaguar.
They are really nice vehicles, do really enjoy both of mine
But the suspension can be expensive, to put right.

 

Welcome to the group Petz...... Your Jag looks very nice indeed. Enjoy.

 

Gorgeous car Petz. I love the color.
