Which model Jaguars are these identical steering columns found in?

Mine just stuck in the same position; I had put a new battery in, and when I opened the door the friggin thing went to automaticallly retract the steering wheel again. I had all the automatic repositioning stuff turned off before that. Now when I try to adjust it back, the motor tries to move it...

Yes, I still have it. I had sold my Porsche 928 because I didn't want to have to do all my own work anymore, and there simply aren't a whole lot of 928 mechanics around (arthritis just makes kneeling and crawling around too painful, so, no more of that for me). The nearest American vehicles to...

Wayne Lincoln had a NOS MkVIII in their showroom for sale back in 2018 which I looked at before having second thoughts because they wouldn't work on my 1998 that had >100K miles on I had brought it in, for evaluation for alignment or brakes, as it would pull hard to one side (either left or...

Come to Arizona and drive it all year round. Even in the winter, it's warm during the daytime! and we have 330 sunny days a year. Just, don't touch a dark color car that's been sitting in the sun for any length of time, and that nice convertible's interior will be hot enough to fry skin after a...

I got mine off of ebay. Prices usually range from about $50 to $100 U.S.. just search, and keep the search active, and you can usually pick up the other side one as well for the lower prices. Pick one that matches yours, there are apparently two different types, one with the 'lumpy' part...

Right rear going low, two episodes, and it's happening when I'm driving it. I will not have anywhere to work on it (other than on the street, which is unacceptable) nor the time for a few months, so repairing the air system is out. I am overloaded with chores already, I have to empty an...

Hi everyone! Just settling in with my Lincoln; Have wanted one for a long time, of course couldn't afford it when new, but can, now. Back in the 90's I was married, my brother in law was a mechanic at a local L/M dealer. We would talk about working on cars (I'm not a professional mechanic like...
