Hi Guys, I prefer to find hardcover but not to sure what my options are for oem info to do full repairs to my new to me 05 xjr

thank you

 

The LAST paper Electrical Guide was early 2000s.
The last paper 3 ring binder repair manual would probably be the XJ40 and XJS.

I don't remember any X300 onward paper manuals when I worked at the dealer.

All info you get will be a .pdf copy.

 

The manuals are readily available online as pdf docs. They are massive, I was going to print them out but they are thousands of pages!

 

The manual or disk has 6,384 pages.
Pretty thick shop manual to carry around
But the manual can be put onto a disk
To take with you to use on any computer.
Print the needed pages & take them with you to work on the car.
If they get dirty or torn just reprint another..
Or put them in covers, then into a notebook.
I have two full notebooks & starting on my third.
Another one with reciepts thats getting pretty full

 

thanks guys I will shop online for a usb version

 

Hi Xjr2005,
There's no need to shop online, the manual and many other downloads are available right here. Look at the top of the forum under the sticky posts, and the last one has the links to download the full workshop manual, either in sections, or as a complete pdf.

Yes be sure and get the Jaguar factory documents. The service manual is called the JTIS (Jaguar Technical Information System). I also like the JEPC (Jaguar Electronic Parts Catalog) this is the same software the Jaguar dealers use. Most of the aftermarket PDF stuff won't be as complete. JEPC has a problem and we now have a replacement called JPART. This was written by a forum member because Flash player is dead and gone and that was required to run JEPC originally.

Both are free on this forum (Including JPART) BUT it will take a bit of work to find/download and then install them.

Hi clubairth1,
The JTIS is theoretically the official source, but it's designed to be used in a commercial service environment with a computer right beside the car. The pdf files that are available from the sticky links are simple to download and as much as I have ever needed. You can just print the section you need and have it with you as you work. The text certainly looks to be the official service manual and at 6470 pages it should have all the detail the OP wants.
