on the highest level it is crap compared to any other car I have. The air is nice and cold but the fan is not blowing hard enough to out do the heat build up even on a sunnt 80 degree not humid day here in cincy. The HIGH on this car is about the same as a mid low to med speed on my Tbird or my Impala SS.

The Jaguar owner should not be subject to loud and distracting air movement noise from the climate control system.
Just pulling your chain . . . look at the climate control codes discussed in the FAQ above and see if you have any error codes. My XK8 at max fan is significantly lower than other cars in the garage.

I'm in Arizona, pretty hot here 100F+ degrees here. When I get in the car my A/C automatically turns on and runs but I have no ability to change temperature or fan speed or anything. - The A/C unit is blank and nothing turns on. After about 10-15 minutes the A/C unit turns on with 24C degrees showing and now functioning, like changing fan speed or changing temperature. Is this by design from the factory? I'm assuming its so hot the A/C runs automatically and after the car cools down a little bit the A/C unit (buttons) start working.

Does anyone have suggestions as to how to remove the pressure switch without damaging the tube it connects with? I have a 1998 XK8 4.0 and when I tried to unscrew the a/c pressure switch to replace it the mounting nipple on the a/c line came lose. Had to replace that line that runs along the bottom of the radiator.
