I have watched all three of these videos with great interest as I have been recently told by a "Jag" mechanic he would not work on XJR's because of having to remove the supercharger. I thought he was being a bit brash about it but after watching all the work you went through just to get to the last few bolts to get it off I can see why it is such an intimidating task. I must say you are a very brave soul to tackle that job, I have that same PDF manual and it is a beast to navigate in any sensible manner. I have a 2004 XJR that runs fine at the moment with only 126,000 miles on it but at some point......I'm sure there will be a time for it to come off for one reason or another. Thank you for making the video, it was very enlightening and educational for me to know what to expect should that day ever come. Don't get discouraged by the "armchair experts" out there being snooty about your methods, there are many out there and seem to have a great need to take the time to tell others how smart they are. I'm sure you have helped many more than you know with the video.
Thanks for the feedback Michael. Your words are most kind. If your car needs a new pipe you can bring it to me and I'll do it, having done it once, I'm sure I could be persuaded to do it again.
Excellent video, I really appreciate your efforts.I don't want to wish any trouble upon you, but I kind of hope you need to do a lot more work, so I can learn through you! I'm in Canada and own a normally aspirated 2005 Vanden Plas, I expect to be back here often! Cheers
