Safety Notice


Appropri
ate service me
thods and proper repair procedures are essential for the safe, reliable operation of all motor vehicles,
as well as the safety of the person do ing the work. This manual provides genera l directions for accomplishing service and
repair work with tested, effect ive, techniques. Following them will help assure reliability.
There are numerous variations in procedures, techniques, tools, and parts for servicing vehicles, as well as in the skill of the
person doing the work. This manual cannot possibly anticipate all such variations and provide advice or cautions as to each.
Accordingly, anyone who depart s from the instructions provided in the manua l must first establish that neither personal
safety nor vehicle integrity is compromised from choices of methods, tools or parts.
Notes, Ca
utions and Warnings
Throughout
this manual, important inform
ation is highlighted by the use of notes, cautions and warnings. NOTES give
additional information on a topic or proc edure, CAUTIONS are given to prevent da mage to the vehicle, and WARNINGS are
given to prevent personal injury.

Worksh
op Manual Organization
This
manual incorporates descript
ive, diagnostic, and repair information to help trained Jaguar technicians complete service
and rectification procedures. The informat ion can be accessed by choosing the appropriate five digit section number. For
example, Section 412-03 covers air conditioning , which is part of the Climate Control System.
The manual is organized into groups covering generic aspects of the vehicle systems; the first digit of the section
number represents a group se lected from the following:
1. General Information.
2. Chassis.
3. Powertrain.
4. Electrical.
5. Body and Paint.
Each of the groups comprises sections re lating to specific areas of the vehicle.
The second and third digits of the section number indicate the vehicle system.
The last two digits of the se ction number define the system covered, more specifically.
Each section comprises one or more of the following sub-sections:

Repairs and Replacem
ents
Wh
en s
ervice parts are required, it is essential that only genuine Jaguar/Daimler replacements are used.
Attention is drawn to the following points concerning repa irs and the fitting of replacement parts and accessories:
Safety feat
ures embodied in the vehicle
may be impaired if other than genuine parts are fitted. In certain territories,
legislation prohibits the fitting of pa rts which are not produced to the vehi cle manufacturer's specification.
Torque wrench setting figures given i
n this manual must be strictly adhered to. Locking devices, where specified,
must be fitted. If the efficiency of a locking device is impaired during removal it must be renewed.
O w
ners purchasing accessories
while travelling abroad should ensure that the accessory and its fitted location on the
vehicle conform to mandatory requirements existing in their country of origin.
The vehicle warranty may be invali
dated by the fitting
of other than genuine Ja guar/Daimler parts. All
Jaguar/Daimler replacements have the fu ll backing of the factory warranty.
Jaguar/Daimler dealers are obliged to

supply only genuine service parts.
Thread Locking Devices
P a
tched Fasteners
Two types
of
patched fastener are essentially used on certai
n suspension, steering and other critical components, where
operational movement of the component necessitates positive thread locking. Standard patched fasteners have part
numbers bearing the suffix le tter M. For identification of special patched fa steners, refer to the list of patched fasteners
below, or the relevant component drawings.
Jaguar Specification JFS 02.01.02 patched fasteners incorporate a micro-encapsulated adhesive which is released into the
mating threads during tightening. Following final tightening, the adhesive in this type of patched fastener must be allowed a
period to cure before the component/vehicle is used. On removal, this type of fastener must be discarded and a new

patc
hed fastener of the same specification fitted. All mating th
reads must be thoroughly cleaned prior to fitting of the new
fastener.
Jaguar Specification JFS 02.01.04 patched fasteners incorporat e a plastic/polyester on the thread. Acting as a wedge
between the mating threads, this compound imposes a prevaili ng torque during tightening. Whilst this type of patched
fastener can be re-used, the imposed torq ue diminishes. It is therefore recommended that following third removal, this type
of patched fastener is discarded and a new fast ener of the same specification is fitted.
Special fasteners bearing the following pa rt numbers are of the micro-encapsulated adhesive type and following removal,
must be discarded and replaced by ne w items of the same specification:

Vehicle Specifications

Purchasers are advised th
at th
e specification details set out in this manual apply to a range of vehicles and not to any
specific one. For the specificatio n of a particular vehicle, purchasers should consult their dealer.
The Manufacturer reserves the right to vary the specifications, with or without notice, and at such times and in such manner
as the Manufacturer thinks fit. Major as well as minor changes may be involved , in accordance with the Manufacturer's
policy of continuous improvement.
Whilst every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the pa rticulars contained in this manual, neither the Manufacturer nor
the Dealer, by whom the manual is supplied, shall in any circumstances be held liable for any inaccuracy or the
consequences thereof.
Serv
ice Repair Operation Numbering
A
master index of numbered operations has been compiled for
universal application to all vehicles manufactured by Jaguar
Cars Ltd.
Each operation is allocated a number from the master index and cross-refers with an identical number in the Repair
Operation Times schedule. The number consists of six digits arranged in three pairs.
Each maintenance procedure in this manual is described in the sequence necessary to complete the operation in the
minimum time, as specified in the Repair Operation Times schedule for this range of vehicles.
Re
ferences to Left- and Right-Hand
R
eferences to the left- or
right-hand side of the vehicle are made as if viewing from the driver's seat.
Ref
erences to Engine Banks
Wi
th the engine installed in the vehicle, the right-hand cylinder
bank is designated Bank A, and the left-hand cylinder bank
is designated Bank B.
Specia

Any special too

ls and equipment required
to perform a maintenance procedure, are shown at the beginning of each
maintenance procedure.

Wh en t
he vehicle is being reco
vered by rear suspended tow:

ergency Towing
WARNING: IF THE

ENGINE IS NOT
RUNNING, THE STEERING WILL BECOME HEAVY AND THE FORCE NECESSARY TO
EFFECTIVELY APPLY THE BRAKES WILL BE GREATLY INCREASED.
• CAUTIONS:
A vehicle with a defective transmission must be towed by rear suspended tow.
The vehicle towing point is not suit able for use with a solid tow-bar.
Do not use the crossbeam tie bar as a towing location.
When the vehicle is being towed on its own wheels:
Loc a
l regulations for the towing of ve
hicles must be followed. In some co untries the registration number of the
towing vehicle and an 'On Tow' sign or warning triangle must be displayed at the rear of the towed vehicle.
The gear s
elector lever
must be in Neutral.
The
ignition switch must be in positi
on II to release the steering lock and make the direction indicators, horn and
stop lamps operate.
A di
stance of 0.8 km (0.5 mi
le) must not be exceeded.
A spe
ed of 48 km/h (30 mph) must not be exceeded.
The tow rope must be attached using th
e towi
ng location provided; refer to Front Towing Point in this section.

Mus
t only be used when the grille
vane has been removed by turning the three fasteners anti-clockwise.
