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.

FRONT STEERING ARM requires a Service tool to assist removal. Low-
pressure hose connections are made using
Constant Tension (CT) clamps. Pinion hydraulic
connections are orientated with the bottom
connector low pressure with the longer nut, as
current vehicles.
The PAS fluid is for PAS only; it is not to be used
for transmissions. After manual filling, the system
must be bled using a vacuum pump to remove all
the air from the system to prevent system noises.
Fluid level is checked through a sight window on
the reservoir.
Components replaceable are complete pump,
steering rack, reservoir or hose assembly.
A non-serviceable 10-micron filter is located
within the reservoir to maintain fluid cleanliness
throughout the life of the vehicle. It is essential as
with all Jaguars that the system does not become
contaminated. Cap all ports on disassembly to
prevent contamination ingress. As with current
vehicles, the fluid and reservoir must be renewed
if any major component is replaced i.e. Rack,
pump or cooler.
The road wheels should be set straight ahead and
the steering wheel locked (using service tool
F7LC-3F732-BF) when removal and assembly of
the steering gear or intermediate shaft is required.
This is necessary to prevent damage to the air bag
clock spring within the steering upper column
assembly. The intermediate shaft can only be
assembled to its mating components in one
location. Steering wheel alignment can only be
achieved by adjustment at the tie-rods. A
dimensional check of the steering rack position
may be necessary to verify rack centre.
Steering Column
The steering column assembly is completely new
and uses no parts from previous Jaguar
assemblies:
¥ Construction of the upper column assembly is
based on the use of aluminium extrusions and
castings.
¥ A two shaft lower column assembly is used.
¥ The electronically controlled steering lock, the
steering column lock module (SCLM), is a
physically separate component from the
ignition switch which is fascia mounted.
¥ The dynamic stability control (DSC) steering
wheel position sensor is fitted to the upper
column assembly.
Steering Wheel
The steering wheel consists of a magnesium
armature with a central steel insert. The steering
column and wheel insert are splined with a flat so
that the wheel can only be fitted in one position.
Any misalignment of the steering wheel is
corrected by adjusting the tie rods. The splined
fitting also has a locking taper which requires the
use of a 2 legged puller to remove the wheel.
The steering wheel incorporates the the airbag
module, horn mechanism and the optional cruise
control and audio/phone switches.

Instrument Pack
Vehicle instrumentation is installed on the
instrument pack on the fascia. The calibration of
the odometer and speedometer, the language of
the message center and the composition of the
indicator lamps are tailored to suit the destination
market. The instrument pack acts as a system
monitor for the audible and visual warnings.When the ignition switch is turned to position II,
the following visual warnings (telltales) are
illuminated for three seconds to provide a bulb
prove out function:
¥ ABS telltale
¥ Airbag telltale (six seconds prove out)
¥ Catalyst over temperature telltale (Japan only)
¥ Charging system telltale
