Hello all,
Last October, I was fortunate enough to find a nice 2000 XK8 with about 13k miles on the clock. It was at a dealer, and in the "Select Edition" program, if that makes any difference.
Anyway, my previous Jags ('91 XJ-S and '91 Sovereign) had actual "service intervals" listed in the "Passport to Service" manual I received with the car... I believe they were at 7500m intervals (but I don't have the book anymore) One of the manuals also listed the "checklist" for what things were done at each service.
I could have sworn the dealer told me the XK8 had it's first service due at 6 months, and that they'd send me a letter "reminding" me when the time came. No letter arrived, so today I called to check and the service person told me scheduled service is due every 10k miles or 1 year.
Looked in ALL the manuals, and can't find ANY info on scheduled service, except "Do it." :-) And the "Passport to Service" only has "blank" places for the dealer stamp... no mileage OR time recommendations.
Am I just missing it? Can someone point me to the place where the intervals are specified?
Thanks, Phil
