What kind of cruise control does a Jaguar XK8 have?
Jaguar’s Adaptive Cruise Control is an optional feature available on both models. Both come with all-leather interior, burl walnut trim, and side airbags. Jeremy Clarkson, during a Top Gear test-drive, likened the interior of the original XK8 to sitting inside Blenheim Palace. In 2004, the grille design of the XKR was refreshed.
Where are the ABS sensors on a Jaguar XK8?
It sounds like it could be the sensors but it could also be the cables so they should be the first check. The rear ones go into the bottom of the boot and are on a bracket near each corner of the petrol tank. The front ones go through the inner wing and are mounted on the wing forward of the suspension mounts. Try doing a continuity check on these.
Why is there a warning light on my Jaguar XK8?
Taken each sensor off and cleaned, measured resistance etc. Bought a spare sensor off ebay for £7 (instead of the £170 from Jag) and changed each one out individually but still there. Please, any advice would be welcome. Got a feeling it’s not the ABS module and it is sensor related.
Why does my XK8 have an ABS warning light?
At first the warning was intermittent ( which suggests no serious prob with ABS pump or throttle body) but now it’s on pretty much all the time. I’ve had the wheels off and cleaned and checked all the sensors. Don’t want to pay for extortionate diagnostics (who does). Is there anything else I can try? Thanks, Evo08
