NOTE: For convenience, pinpoint test il
lustrations indicating voltage measurements do not always accurately reflect the
conventional method of connecting a multimeter. More explicitly, if the multimeter probes are connected as shown in some
illustrations (positive probe to ground), the voltage reading would be preceded by the negative sign '-', indicating that the
probes have been connected in the reverse manner to the norm al convention. The accuracy of the reading is not affected
and the '-' sign can be ignored when comparing the reading with the results indicated in the text of the pinpoint test.

Gen
eral Procedures
• NOTE: Before any work is commenced, th e vehicle must be checked to establish that it conforms to the Jaguar original
specification, e.g. wheels, ti res, tire pressures, etc.
• NOTE: The vehicle must be unladen and the fuel tank full when measuring suspension geometry.

1.
Road test the vehicle to establish the exact nature of the
complaint, e.g. pulling to one side, wander.
2. Measure the suspension geometry, fill in the 'Suspension
Geometry Record Form', and co ntact Jaguar Technical Support
for assistance.
3. Technical Support will give advice on the course of action to be
taken to rectify the problem.
4. Each lower wishbone pivots on and is secured to the front
crossbeam by two fulcrum bolts. A circular eccentric flange
formed under the hexagonal head of each fulcrum bolt, has
raised graduation marks to indicate radial position. A washer
with a 'D' shaped hole locates on a flat on the threaded section
of each bolt. This ensures that the washer rotates with the bolt,
maintaining an eccentric position corresponding with the
flanged head. The outer face of the washer is punch marked,
ensuring correct instal lation with the chamfered face inwards.
This permits the washer to rotate freely in the crossbeam cam
reaction plate during a djustm ent. Each fulcrum bolt and
washer are secured by a self locking nut.
On rotation of the bolt, lateral movement of the eccentric flange
and washer is restricted by the cam plate faces, forcing the bolt
shank to move laterally in the crossbeam slots. Lateral
movement of the bolt shank re sults in corresponding inward
and outward movement of th e wishbone arm, effecting
adjustment of wh eel alignment.
Rotation of the front fulcrum bolt principally adjusts wheel
caster angle, with a small amount of camber angle change.
Adjustment of the rear fulcrum bo lt mainly alters wheel camber
angle with a small amount of caster angle change.
On vehicles with VIN up to 833124, fulcrum bolt eccentric
flanges have raised graduation marks representing 15 degree
increments of bolt rotati on from 0 to 90 degrees.
On vehicles with VIN from 833125, the fulcrum bolt graduation
marks represent bolt shank ho rizontal movement in 1mm
increments from 0 to 3mm.
The upper wishbone and fulcrum shaft are not adjustable and
play no part in steering geometry adjustment.

Description an
d Operation

Description
The i
ndependent rear suspension incorporates co-axial sp
ring and shock absorber units, a subframe, wishbone tie,
pendulum assembly, mounting brac ket, differential strut, cast wishbones and hub carriers. The suspension assembly is
positively located by the subframe, mounting bracket and differential strut.
Each wi
shbone pivots on a fulcru
m bolt which locates in the wishbone tie and pendulum assembly.
The wish
bone tie and pendulum assemblies are respectively in
stalled at the front and rear of the final drive housing.
The differential
strut is secured to the wishbone tie assembly.
Two ti

e rods are installed between the front of the
subframe and the top of the final drive housing.
The ou
ter extremity of each wishbone
is secured to its respective hub carrier assembly by a fulcrum bolt.
Each fulcrum bolt head incorporates an ec centric circular flange which locates in a groove in the front face of the wishbone
arm. Rotation of the fulcrum bolt results in horizontal movement of the bolt shank in an elongated hole in the rear of the
wishbone arm. This acti on achieves corresponding movement of the hub carrier, facilita ting adjustment of road wheel toe-
in.

Each r
oad spring and is located between the wishbone in
tegral spring seat and the body suspension turret.
Each shoc
k absorber unit is installed
co-axially within the road spring.
The lo
wer end of each shock absorber is secured to the
wishbone by a bolt which also functions as a pivot.
Adaptive damping is av
ailable as an option.
A
rear stabi
lizer bar is installed on
Supercharged and Sport Suspension models . Mounted at the rear of the wishbone
tie assembly, the stabilizer bar is connected to the wishbone by short links.
Op era
tion
As each road wheel r
i
ses, move
ment is transmitted through th e hub carrier assembly to the wishbone and axle shaft. The
corresponding rise of the wishbone compre sses the road spring and partially telescopes the shock absorber. During this
action, the spring absorbs result ing shocks and the shock absorber minimizes spring oscillation.
During cornering, vehicle weight is transferred to the outer road wheel with a resulting tendency for the inner wheel to lift.
On Supercharged and Sport Suspension vehicl es, a rear stabilizer bar assists in minimizing this tendency by transferring a
proportion of potential lift of the inner wheel to the outer wheel. This results in enhanced body stability with improved
cornering capabilities.

O
ne locking wheel nut is fitted to each road wheel and can on
ly be removed by using the correctly coded socket. For road
wheels with exposed wheel nuts, each locking wheel nut is provided with a cover, which is removed using the cover removal
tool.
Locking wheel nuts have different coded keyway combinations with corresponding coded sockets. The correct socket, and
cover removal tool are supplied with the vehicle toolkit. Sets of sockets are available to Jaguar dealers.
Temporary Spare Wheel
•
NOTE: When using this type of spare wheel note that:
Speed

must not exceed 80 km/h (50 mph).
The normal ro

ad wheel must be reinstalled as soon as possible.
On

ly one temporary wheel may be installed to the vehicle.
Tracti

on control (where fitted
) must be switched OFF.
In certain markets, the spare wheel supplied with the vehicle is of the temporary-use type, it is narrower than the normal
road wheel and takes up less room in the luggage compartment.
Tire
s
The
radial ply tires shown in the 204-04
Specification Section are recommended by Jaguar to meet the high speed
performance of the vehicle. Only tires of identical specification may be fitted as replacements. Unde r no circumstances must
cross-ply tires be fitted.
Tire Inflation Pressures
Al
l recommended tires, including winter tire
s, must be inflated to the pressures shown in the 204-04 Specification Section.
Inflation pressures must only be checked when the tires are cold.
Tire Replac
ement and Wheel-Interchanging
W
hen renewal of tires is necessary, it is
preferable to fit a complete set. If two replacement tires are fitted (to one axle),
they must be of the same manufacturer and type as those on the other axle.
No attempt must be made to interchange wh eels from the front to the rear or vice-versa, as wear produc es a characteristic
pattern on each tire depending upon its po sition on the vehicle. If this position is changed after wear has occurred, the
performance of the tire w ill be adversely affected.
It should be remembered that new tires must be balanced befo re installing to the vehicle.
Win
ter Tires
•
NOTE: Speed must not exceed 210 km/h (131 mph) when winter tires are installed.
Jaguar recommended winter tires as specified in 204-04 Specification Section must only be fitted in complete four-wheel
sets of the same type and size.
Snow Chains and Spike Spider Traction System

Jagu
ar recommended snow chains, must on
ly be installed when using 16 inch wheels with 255/60 R16 winter tires.
• NOTE: When using snow chains or the spike spider traction system, note that:
Snow ch
ains and the spike spider
traction system must only be fitted to the rear wheels.
O
nly Jaguar recommended snow chains and spik
e spider traction system must be used.
The m
aximum permissible speed with winter tires and snow chains or the spike spider traction system fitted is 48
km/h (30 mph).
Tracti
on control (where fitted) must be
switched OFF when using snow chains or the spike spider traction system.

Is hard-wi
red to the instrume
nt cluster message center.
Is hard
-wired to the J1962 diagnostic connector.
Op
era
tion
Th
e
system selects the soft or
firm damper setting according to the current ro ad and driving conditions, to optimise vehicle
ride and handling.
With the vehicle stationary, the dampers are in the firm setting, but will normally switch to the soft setting when the vehicle
exceeds 8 km/h (5 mile/h); all dampers are switched simultaneously.
Sudden movement of the vehicle body, in response to road inputs, is detected by the vertical accelerometers, and the ADCM
switches the dampers to the firm setting to give improved damping of the resultant oscillations.
When cornering forces are detected by th e lateral accelerometer, the ADCM switches the dampers to the firm setting to
reduce the roll rate an d improve wheel control.
After the event has passed, the dampers revert to the soft setting.
When the footbrake is applied, the ADCM re ceives a signal and calculates the rate of vehicle deceleration. If the deceleration
rate is greater than a certain threshold, the dampers are switched to the firm setting to reduce the pitch rate and improve
wheel control.
If a system failure occurs, the ADCM grounds the output line to the instrument cluster message center, which displays a
text warning SUSPENSION FAULT and illuminates the amber warning lamp. Under fault conditions the system always fails to
the firm setting, so that the vehicle will be safe to drive un der all road and driving conditions.
