Jag 2.5 V6
03. Jun 2009 at 08:51

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? Thumbs Up!

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