bignev Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 Hi there! Yes - are you any good at car maintenance? Read the vehicle assistance section of the forum to get an idea of the little foibles it will quite likely present you! Cheers!

Nev I get by on the maintenance side (and love being nervous - ive got a Jag tdv6 as well!) Is there a specific tech section, or just posts within the vehicle specific ones? So far I need to fettle 2 door locks, a window rubber, and a wing mirror. Big question, is there any a workshop manual worth having? Otherwise it's booked for a cam belt, waterpump, engine and autobox service tomorrow. Quite chuffed tbh, 1 owner, 103k nearly full history and spent is life chugging around London I suspect by the amount of soot on the headlining near the windows! Here's hoping that this one's a keeper!!! Jim Edited May 11, 2022 by c15htn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignev Posted May 12, 2022 Report Share Posted May 12, 2022 Aha you should be alright then!! No there isn't an actual technical section, it's all the posts in the particular vehicle assistance sections, and yes there is somewhere a downloadable technical manual but I can't remember where it might be. Somewhere in those posts a cracking bloke Qinteq used to link to them, if I come across it I'll ping it to you! Fingers crossed you got a good one!
