Welcome to OOF
The XJ is a handsome brute to my eyes....Yes, but you're very special, and believe the Signum is a special car....
I do have to concur - most of my motor is quite attractive looking.... ....but it's arse, WTF was that Scottish idiot Callum thinking?Well, its improved its looks.Not as bad as an old man's jag
I wonder how badly stained the drivers seat was....
Washed a ton of bird crap off the Omega. One wish in this world is for the neighbours tree to die...Isn't that why copper nails were invented?
Hooked up the Maxiscan 509, which was kindly given to me by an OOF member.Can that do gearbox, as its just a OBDII scanner...
No codes either stored or pending.
If the gearbox was in limp, which sounds like it was if it just picked 1 gear, there will be codes in the gearbox.And what codes are in the engine and gearbox?
No codes or warning lights.....the car just got very hot after a while at 50 MPH, which is 5000 rpm in second gear.
Personally I found the resin ones to be poor, I bought these and fitted them, no worse than the originals and should last the life of the car now, certainly been OK in one of mine for the last 3 years.Yup, look better than resin ones, good find

It's NOT the 10th till SundayThose were the good ol' days, when you'd get it MOT'd only so you could buy the tax from the PO....
unless you mean another PREVIOUS month or year
if self levelling Xeon then is the sensor on the wishbone functional.MFL CDX will be halogen, unless retro fitted (and I dont know any retrofits that bother with the levelling )
Heater matrix is also a possibility. I currently have similar symptoms due to a small leak at the matrix.I would have thought you would have smelt it if it was heater matrix?
Which reminds me, I really must get off my arse and replace i soon.
Only use it occasionally, so havent been desperate to do the job.
