2005 JAGUAR S TYPE Technical Guide Update

JAGUARS-TYPE
4
Introduction
The Jaguar S-TYPE is an all-new, luxury sports sedan with a distinctive style, refined power, agile
handling, supple ride and luxurious comfort.
Powertrains are a V8 (AJ28) petrol engine, derived from the engines currently used in XJ and XK Series
vehicles, with a new five-speed automatic transmission or alternatively, a V6 (AJ-V6) petrol engine
coupled with either a five-speed automatic transmission or a five-speed manual transmission. The new
V6 engine and transmission units and the updated variations to the V8 engine are described in the
ÔJaguar S-TYPE Powertrain IntroductionÕ Technical Guide, which compliments this Guide.
As with current vehicles, variable rate steering control is fitted and all vehicles have ABS brakes with
traction control as standard. A new, optional feature with the Jaguar S-TYPE is Dynamic Stability Control
(DSC), yaw control, which assists the driver in maintaining directional control of the vehicle.
Unlike current vehicles, the hood is hinged at its rear with a safety catch provided at the front of the
hood. A tilt and slide sliding roof with a sunshade is an optional feature.
Both front seats have electrically operated 8-way adjustments as standard and memory equipment is
available as an option. To allow a greater load to be carried in the luggage compartment, the rear seats
can be folded forwards and are split in a 60/40 configuration.
Automatic climate control, with dual temperature control for the driver and front passenger, is a
standard feature on all vehicles. Another new item is reverse park control, a system giving the driver
audible warning of obstructions which could damage the vehicle during reversing.
A standard fit radio/cassette unit provides in-car entertainment with a CD autochanger also being
offered. Other options include a phone, navigation system, vehicle emergency monitoring system and
certain voice activated systems. Optional cruise control and audio switches are fitted to the steering
wheel. All vehicles have a trip computer system and a message center.
Security features are immobiliser and alarm. Optional features include intruder sensor and inclination
sensor. The 3 or 4 button key-ring transmitter has radio frequency operation with an encrypted rolling
code to help prevent theft of the vehicle.
Standard Corporate Protocol (SCP) is the only computer system highway for all the vehicle electronic
controls, CAN is not used.
