Common Issues Found in the Jaguar XJ6

  • Electrical Problems: The XJ6 can experience issues with its electrical systems, such as faulty window regulators, malfunctioning door locks, and ageing wiring, which can affect vehicle performance.
  • Suspension Issues: Owners often report problems with the suspension, including worn shock absorbers and bushings, leading to a less comfortable ride and handling inconsistencies.
  • Cooling System Failures: The cooling system in older models is prone to leaks, which can lead to overheating and engine damage if not addressed promptly.
  • Gearbox Problems: Some models of the XJ6 equipped with automatic transmissions can experience gearbox failures or erratic shifting, necessitating professional attention.
  • Rust: As with many older cars, rust can be a significant issue, particularly around the wheel arches, doors, and under the vehicle.

Called one day and he was at my door the next. Ran a cable in my car for me in 10mins flat for a new audio system, would probably have taken me over an hour and I'd probably have broken something in the process. Also did quite a lot of tidying up, made everything neat, cleaned the battery terminals for me that had degraded and connected everything up. Made an existing connection that I'd made to the amplifier more sturdy. Did way more than I asked him to, clearly very experienced and knows what he's doing, will definitely use again!

Easy to deal with and reliable. Shannon gave an accurate diagnosis of a wheel bearing fault. Came and repaired it whilst I was at work. Cannot recommend enough.

I was a first-time customer today, and Shannon was extremely helpful. He listened to my long backstory to understand the context of the problem I had, and was fantastic at helping me out and explaining the best next steps. I would strongly recommend Shannon to anyone!!
