They're my local dealer, too. I haven't made my mind up about them, they sorted out my broken parcel shelf under warranty, but didn't fix my non-retracting headlamp washer - well, it retracts, but isn't aligned correctly so doesn't finish flush with the bodywork, has to be pushed back by hand, which is inconvenient when driving(!). I filled in the feedback form I was sent, but haven't had any follow-up from my moaning yet.

I use InchCape Southampton for my servicing. They treated my cross braces during my 1st service FOC. I think I'll ask them to do a thorough check at 2nd service and maybe replace bits covered by the campaign and treat the rest of the underside.

Had my subframe and crossmember replaced earlier this week under warranty. Although I now question the quality of the workmanship at the dealership, why?
Firstly, I requested categorically that they do not wash the car, they did!
Secondly, when I got home there was an almighty noise from the back of the car, had to call out Jaguar Assistance to ascertain whether the car was safe to drive, when I moved the car out of the drive so the Jag Assist engineer could get round and under the car I found a large bolt, I asked him if it was from my car, I was meant to be a joke, turned out not to be so funny, as it was the bolt for the exhaust bracket, so he refitted lucky I found it on the drive saved me another trip to the dealer.

Hi Gazza, I use Dynax s50 from bilt hamber. My 400 MY 18.5 was showing small spots of rust after 1000 miles on rear sub frame. Looks as good as new now but I am going to ask Jaguar to replace all parts that are clearly not fit for purpose before covering the new parts with dynax s50 again. If jaguar do not play ball will keep up the high standard of rust protection that I can.

Ok. At last MOT the technician mentioned, during the videoed bit, that ‘the cross-members were showing signs of surface rust’. I’ve booked my car in to be inspected with a view to warranty claim & having them replaced. My car is under the 2-year Approved Warranty.
If they knock my claim back, what course of action would you advise? My wife wouldn’t leave the dealer until they agreed to do it. She got the RR front lettering replaced, after 4 years old.
I should take her along. I’m crap at this stuff & would just say, ‘well how much would it cost to do it!
Help!

Is the campaign only limited to cars under warranty? Seems to me it's a manufacturing defect that ought to be fixed at any age (within reason).
