Re: Carbon brake mounting pins

I would use two of them for the reason I mentioned earlier i.e. to prevent any damage that could be done to the elongated stud. Even if one was used, the wheel wouldn’t do a pendulum movement as I’d be holding it at the same time, as I do when I remove/refit a wheel without using guiding pins. I'd t...

Re: Carbon brake mounting pins

One of the most difficult items I've ever tried to source. I don't have carbon brakes, but having struggled to fit the 20 inch wheels over wheel studs while trying to avoid striking the caliper, I set out to locate a suitable set of mounting pins. The item you require is a M12x1.5 (female) wheel st...

Re: Carbon brake mounting pins

my Jag has the carbon brake system. Unfortunately, the mounting pins were missing from the car if you want to remove the wheel. Would anyone have a part number for me? I've already searched half the internet ;-) The part number is T2R9918 as shown here... https://parts.jaguarlandroverclassic.com/pa...

Re: (Another) Leaking tailgate (sorry)

As it can be difficult to trace where these water leaks are coming from, I’d start by sealing the clip above the drip area marked ‘X’ in your pic (below) and also the other clips along the underside of that tailgate channel (check if there's one under the C-Pillar trim). Before doing so, press down ...

Re: (Another) Leaking tailgate (sorry)

Next I decided to apply tape to joint area between tailgate and ROS panel, then between the roof and tailgate etc ...to seal those joints in a process of elimination ... and got nowhere. It still leaked (with the parcel shelf removed I was able to pass pieces of blue 'test papers' over and between ...

👍 Glad you've sorted the rattling issue although you wouldn't expect it on a 6 month old 75!

Re: First Year Niggles

I firstly did start removing parts near the C pillar area but found I was getting close to the airbag. I decided then to remove the rear panel with the escape handle and the plastic side trim so removing the nut was easy. After I had refitted everything I noticed that the curved exterior trim bit w...

Re: First Year Niggles

👍 Yes, that would be ideal. Members GBH and Stu67 have previously removed and replaced the trim surround (window finisher) on their cars as shown in this topic ‘Trim removal advice wanted’.... https://www.ftypeforums.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=7238 It would be great to hear their opinions on that nut and...

Re: First Year Niggles

There is a 10MM nut on the bolt. You need a long box type spanner to get to it. It does involve stripping the boot panels or an easier way if you are nimble :) Get in the boot on your back legs dangling outside. There is a plastic grill in mine that does nothing. Hacksaw blade one of the legs and i...
