Jag 2.5 V6
« on: 03 June 2009, 08:51:29 »
The bloke across the road has one which apparently the big ends have gone on it. We were chatting last night and asked if I knew anyone who knows anything about these Jag's as by loking at the underneath of the car to remove the sump, he says it seems you have to remove all the susspension, transferbox (as its 4 wheel drive) and god knows what else. Is he right or is there an easier way? :y

I'm assuming it's an x Type so... He's probably right. It's built on Mondeo running gear so anything is possible! :o :o :o ::) ::) ::)

Whatever it is... I didn't do it

My boss got rid of a 3.0 due to this - too expensive to repair

Yes it is an X type, he did also mention something about it being a Mondeo...
Think he is in for a Mammoth job then  :-?

Agreed. The big ends went for a reason after all. They don't just go in isolation on modern engines IMHO.
