Re: Where do I put my GB sticker for driving in France

I am thinking about getting a clean air sticker, but I don't intend on going to anywhere that requires one - hopefully I can order one today and it will come before I leave in a week or so.

Re: Where do I put my GB sticker for driving in France

@Gareth - yes I meant UK stickers :) - I got some last year for my other car, when I went to France (magnetic ones) @Adrain1961 - I have that stuff from the trip to France from last year, including the breathalysers......! Must remember to get a set of bulbs - although with LEDs - do we need them? @...

Where do I put my GB sticker for driving in France

I'm off on a trip to France with my brother in the F-type. I've got magnetic GB "stickers" - but of course they don't stick. I'm a bit loathe to put actual stickers on the car - and I don't have a UK flag on my number plate (I suppose I could get one). So - what do you all do? Where would ...

Re: Coolant hose

Thanks for your replies :) - I've asked them to change the water pump at the same time. My car is a MY16 (or at least a 16 plate) - so only seven years old, and I've had it for a year yesterday. it all seemed to be fine until I took it for a service at the main dealer, and now there have been many i...

Re: Coolant hose

Well, I took mine in a few weeks ago to check for the coolant leak, but they couldn't find anything. It burst - or at least I had the low coolant light on last Sunday - managed to get it home (it wasn't far) by filling it up with coolant again. Taken it to the garage and that's at least £1000 in lab...

Re: Engine coolant issues

Well, after getting the sheared bolt fix a few weeks ago, they mentioned there was a small coolant leak . Today the low coolant light came on,filled it up and after warming the car up, same thing again. Only really happens when the car had warmed up. By checking straight after driving, seems to be e...

Re: Window scratches any solutions?

Well, the independent I took it too yesterday - for the bolt charged a reasonable £150, which included fixing / drilling out all the bolts on the plastic undertray and sorting them out as well. They couldn't find the coolant leak (it held pressure), so could be a hot car coolant leak issue, but thin...

Re: Window scratches any solutions?

Well I took my 2016 F type for its first service with me to the garage that has traditionally looked after it. Main dealer...I asked about the scratches, they told politely to go away as they weren't interested, as I hadn't bought the car from them (even if they were the original dealers I think). M...

Re: MY2016 F-Type V6 S 380bhp Italian Red

So, I took my car to Stratstone - as it was due its MOT and service and - via the Jaguar website it was the cheapest of the regular service intervals. Aside from me booking a Saturday (through the Jag website) - when I turned up, they had booked me Tuesday....I left the car there - apparently needed...

Re: MY2016 F-Type V6 S 380bhp Italian Red

Easy difference is IRR is metallic and Salsa isn't. Paint code near the door latch will be 1AF/CAH for IRR.. The only paint code I can find is 1AF - and it is metallic, so definitely IRR :) Trim level is PDE - there's also a GH after that, but not sure if that is part of the code or not. 19" r...
