2011 Jaguar XJ SS
The SS just hit 35,000 and the Navigation System when out.
Will not program - can not enter address.
Will be calling for appointment tomorrow and not concerned
with extended warranty.
If Fact the car has given me very little trouble.
1-A knocking sound in sunroof. 2- Sensor in tail pipe
3- Nav system. (it will stick out in a crowd- you become the center of attraction.
I am in NYC a few times a year and I see Bentley's more then Jags)
The car is quick and very underrated. They seem to have gotten
the Supercharged mixed up with SuperSport , as to ratings.
0 to 60 under 4.0...... 1/4 mile just over 12 seconds.
MPG-23.( unofficial -taken from a runway)
I have been looking @ boosting performance and get mixed
reports. Some reports tell nightmare stories of what some have gone through.
Anyone have experience on the above. Just don't thinkextra HP is worth the prover running of a car.
~THANK YOU~

Howdo!

Very nice car. I agree with you that if adding power ruins the character or the reliability then why bother - it's not exactly slow to start off with.

My car is very different, and a lot slower, but I had the same decision as you. I could remap for a little more but as it is the car is smooth, quiet for a diesel even when accelerating, and has enough poke to get me past slower vehicles, which is all I really need. I'd hate to remap and have the turbo go pop on me.

I did ponder an intercooler change, but from my investigations they use the same one on bigger, more powerful versions so it is obviously not stressed in mine so I doubt I'd get any improvement.
