Jaguar X-Type Wire Mesh Grill Installation
The Jaguar X-Type hasn’t changed much since it was introduced in 2002. In fact even a Jaguar enthusiast would be hard pressed to tell the difference between an original year model vehicle and a brand new car, that is until you get to the grill. Along with new color choices, the 2008 model...

Reset a Jaguar X-Type sunroof/moonroof to the closed position
The first day I had my Jaguar X-Type, I noticed the sunroof wouldn’t close completely. The glass panel would slide forward, but wouldn’t lift into the closed position without some manual adjustment.
