Re: Oil leak automatic gearbox
Hi Guys Thank very much for responding Kashma77 - I don't think it is the kick down switch is leaking. I have felt all around and above the sump pan and can see no signs of any fluid running down, however in light of what Mark said I will investigate that again. The box was recently rebuilt so I wou...

Re: Best place for data plate stamping UK
I used minimail.co.uk to stamp my S3 plate.
I supplied the plate and they charged me £35.00 including return postage back in 2015 and was happy with the result.
Hope this helps

Re: Series 3 E-type Originality Question
Hi Ellecari I have a picture of my 73 2+2 which is being restored and repainted. The photo was taken back in 2015. As you can see on the passenger side the chassis number (Circled) has been blanked and the rest painted. I have owned the car since it was 3 years old and there has been no damage/paint...

David Manners show it for the XJ12 £60.00 Inc Vat special order

Re: s3 automatic gearbox cooler pipes
Have you tried Norman Motors - they show C33339 (Rear RET pipe) in stock but not C33400
Might be worth a try 0207 431 0940

Re: Rad air control flaps
Hi Peter
I bought a set from SNG Barratt part number C33960/3 £11.76 in stock inc VAT
I bought mine in 2011 and they were pretty good quality so probably not worth trying to make them for that sort of money
Cheers

Re: Series 3 power steering noise (video inside)
Hi ljbp To be honest I couldn't pickup the noise from the video so not sure what it is. I used to get the squealing noise from the power steering when on full lock standing still. Eventually found out it was the belt slipping. You can easily eliminate this by wetting the belt and trying it again, at...

Re: Trim colour change S3 V12 2+2
Hi Guys Many Thanks for your replies. It seems all the later 2+2 had grey headlining and black vinyl sun visors. This is what I had in my olive green interior. As I will be changing the interior colour to biscuit I originally thought it a little odd to have black vinyl sun visors with a biscuit inte...

Re: 1973 V12 2+2 original documents question
Thanks Bill
Looks like I don't have that. It doesn't look familiar but it would have been nice to have the full compliment of the original documents, never mind though.
Thanks again for your response

Hi Toby I found the Coventry Auto components S3 wiring diagram much easier to follow than the workshop manual They are available on eBay for £10.50.
