nice video..but i say always use OEM oil filter.
If u are going to do a “How too” video….when you have put the car on your
ramps…. you then chock the back wheels. so that if the handbrake fails,
and the car rolls backwards, while you are underneath it, you won’t die !
Chuck Norris could have done this in 30 seconds.
@z06vette2009 Check out jaguarforums. com. There are some issues to look
into. I havent had much go wrong with mine just basic prevenative
maintenance so far.
They are ramp extenders. Not sure if they work with Rhinos. They have some
tabs that lock into the holes on the ramp so they don’t move and they help
a lot for lowered cars. I got them back when I had a lowered car so they
are pretty old.
great vid here im looking into one of these any major probelms i should
know about with these cars?
I didn’t get into proper ramp techniques because if you are doing an oil
change how you get the front end up is up to you. I use ramps some people
would probably just jack it up. Mine were chocked even though it has an
auto handbrake you just can’t see them.
@cbr900rr919 The transmission in the post 03’s runs on mineral type trans
fluid. If you put anything different in there you will most likely be
needing a new transmission. The stuff at the Range Rover dealers seems to
be the cheapest. A few guys on the forums have used Castrol Multi import
with good luck.
I got some rhino ramps but the bumper on on my STR doesn’t have enough
clearance to make it on to the ramp. What are those things that you have
before the ramp called?
I’m not Chuck Norris so it took a little longer.
hey bro i use a k/n oil filter it works better
Great vid. Thanks
@anthonypat05 Yea I switched to Wix filters. My local OReillys stocks them
and they seat perfectly.
Hey man! I love your jag. I’m actually going to pick an 03′ s type r this
week. Have you had any problems with yours? Are they pretty reliable?
Thanks a ton!
@cbr900rr919 The car already comes with a transmission cooler and I’m not
really sure of all the people with transmission problems they must have
pre-03s regular S types with the Ford trans that has issues. The R’s have a
pretty solid trans. I’ve rarely seen anyone with a problem with them on the
boards. There is a great video posted on youtube for a tran filter and
fluid replace for an XK8 which is the same trans that is an excellent write
up for anyone looking for info on that.
How many times did he say “bellypan”?
