Hi everybody my friend has a Jag X type. This morning he noticed the alarm and lights were going off. He has managed to drive the car, and it has been suggested that disconecting the battery for a while might help.
Any suggestions thank you in advance.

yeah it may reset, try giving the battery a charge, if the voltage has dropped it may have set the alarm off

What ever caused the problem has been sorted by reseting the alarm.

Sorry to do a thread resurrection but my dad needs a new battery for his 2.0 diesel x type - I wondered if anyone knew the one to go for? Cheers

this is a good start
Battery megastore suggests about 10 for the 2004 model - I'll go with the 10/10 one unless there's any specific tips

Because having had a P38 where the fitting of a bigger non original batter is a better idea I thought I'd check
And because it's dark and I'm away from home
