So , here is the update. It was the wheel bearing! And they also changed the other side. I was super happy. And now after not more than 200 kilometers…..this morning.. same thing again! Same sound same problem? How can it be? This seems to be a problem that is affecting the wheel bearing , causing i...

Happy to help someone else with this question.
As for mine. I have asked my jaguar specialist to figure it out in their garage. I will update once we have news so maybe it can help another one or two.

Well I managed to jack up the rear end with a saab900 classic jack and a block of wood between the exhaust pipes. Worked real good. Anyway I found the joint covers to be in fine order and also the water thrower for as far as I could see. I did find quite a lot of play in the wheel. Both sides left a...

Yes the shock absorber was also on my list. It all started after I had a fairly heavy passenger on board

Cool thx, I assume I can only

yes clearly paying more can result in a better car indeed. and it is true I want a good starting point indeed with as little troubles as possible. however sensibility and love are generally hard to combine ;-) Maybe i will come to love the rear of the series 2 in time. let's see. having spoken to so...

the taillights are positioned below the bumper and bulky compared to the series 1.5 sleek above the bumper well formed sleek ones from what i have seen that is a huge difference. can that be modified then on a series 2 ? i have not seen that at all?

thx for the advice! i understand the series 2 has a nicer front/side view indeed but the rear is where it does loose a lot to be honest. is it that much more user-friendly ? it does broaden up the possibilities that is for sure. there is also a very pretty series 3 for sale here in NL but everyone i...

HI Everyone here. Wonderful to read up and get excited over all your knowledge shared here. I've always had a saab 900 convertible Full pressure Turbo as my sensible... good fun and minimal pain car and that worked for a long time however there was always this one girl able to get between us.. yes y...
