Front and Centre Floor Pan
The floor pan is a three-piece construction with
handed dash panels, welded front suspension
housing, an integral centre bearing panel for the
driveshaft and a large under-tunnel heatshield.
Rear Floor Pan
Multi-piece floor pan design, the rear tub is
designed to accept either a full size or space saver
spare wheel and the luggage compartment has
four tie-down luggage loops. Two plastic covers
are located under the rear seat and these give
easy access to the fuel tank mounted components.
A plastic battery tray is located below the luggage
load floor.
Roof
Provision has been made for roof rack fixings and
the roof has reinforcement for vehicles fitted with
a the sliding roof.
Sliding Roof
The sliding roof has an exterior encapsulated glass
roof panel, with sliding sunshade, and has tilt and
slide operation. The sunshade is available in two
colours to match the headlining. Note that the
sunshade cannot be closed if the sliding roof is in
the fully open position or has been partly closed
from the fully open position; this is because the
J.501.1775
SLIDING ROOF MOTOR ASSEMBLYpull-cup is hidden. To allow access to the
sunshade pull-cup, the sliding roof must be fully
closed. Special screws are used in some locations.
When replacements are required these screws are
supplied in packs, do not use any other screws
than those supplied. Low battery voltage may
prevent operation of the sliding roof although the
relays may be heard operating. The sliding roof
cannot be fitted as a retrofit item.
Body Side and Quarter
The vehicle has one piece body sides and one
piece door opening panels, with full height ÔAÕ
post and ÔB-CÕ post reinforcement. The jacking
reinforcement joins the door opening panel to
rear quarter inner reinforcement panel. Large
vacuum-formed wheel arch liners are fitted front
and rear. A sill appliquŽ protects the BIW
sheetmetal from stone damage and an anti-chip
coating is applied to the sills
Closures
One piece door inner and outer pressing with side
impact beams. One piece front and rear door
hinge reinforcement panels.
Door sealing is a triple seal system:
¥ primary seals - single sponge profile with part
dense rubber foot, ÔCÕ-channel mounted on
the upper door and peg mounted below the
waist.
¥ secondary seals - body side flange mounted
carrier with sponge and dense rubber,
colour-keyed trim flap
¥ margin sealing - flange mounted roof
rail/gutter seal which closes off the upper
door opening line above the waist and
terminates with a shaped moulding at each
end.
A variety of different profiles are peg mounted to
the ÔAÕ and ÔCÕ pillar periphery below the waist
and also door bottoms. A separate ÔBÕ pillar seal is
riveted as part of the ÔBÕ pillar appliquŽ.

Introduction
The Jaguar S-TYPE has an all-new suspension,
designed with traditional Jaguar refinement but
with an added sporty feel for the driver. Both
front and rear suspensions have double wishbone
construction with the front having a high balljoint.
JaguarÕs Computer Active Technology Suspension
(CATS), is offered as an optional fit to further
enhance the vehicle ride and handling quality.
The suspension arrangement offers a standard set-
up for most markets. The front and rear control
arms are set at angles to counteract dive when
braking and squat when accelerating, giving a
stable platform under most conditions. It is vitally
J.204.369
FRONT SUSPENSION
J.204.369
Number 1
Cross Member
Number 2
Cross Memberimportant that before removing either of the front
cross members or the rear axle cross members,
the vehicle body and the component being
removed are marked to ensure correct
realignment during assembly. The Jaguar S-TYPE
body-in-white fixings have a greater clearance
than previous Jaguar cars so require this extra
special care with alignment on re-assembly.
Vibration and ride and handling concerns may
arise if alignment is not maintained.

Front Suspension
The independent front wheel suspension is a
double wishbone axle arrangement with
aluminium control arms. The two arms are of
different lengths, which minimises the changes in
track and camber. Inclination of the upper control
arm axis provides anti-dive front suspension
action. There are two front cross members,
known as Number 1 and Number 2.
Number 1, the forward cross member, is a steel
fabrication, non-isolated, which locates the lower
control arm front mounting, the anti-roll bar and
the cooling module.
The rear cross member, Number 2, is an
aluminium casting, non-isolated and it locates the
lower control arm rear mounting, the power
steering rack and the engine hydro-mounts.
WARNING: No attempt must be made to
weld or repair the aluminium cross
member. If it is damaged, a new one must
be installed.
Lower Control Arm
The lower control arm is an aluminium forging
and has locations for the damper and the anti-roll
bar drop link. It is mounted with one hydro-bush,
the front lower bush, and one rubber bush, both
serviceable. This is the first time that a hydraulic
bush has been fitted to a Jaguar wishbone. The
hydro-bush is tuned for refinement and helps to
J.204.402
reduce brake vibration.
Service adjustments for caster and camber can be
made to the lower control arm geometry with the
addition of cam bolts (not supplied with the
vehicle).

Rear Suspension
The rear suspension is a double wishbone
arrangement with aluminium control arms. The
rear crossbeam is steel fabricated and isolated to
the body with four bushes. The crossbeam locates
the upper and lower control arms and the anti-
roll bar.
Control arms are aluminium castings and heavily
inclined in plan view. The lower control arm
locates the damper and anti-roll bar drop link.
The damper fixing is tapped into the aluminium
casting.
The upper control arm has one cross axis bush
and one rubber bush. It contains an integral
balljoint.
The rear knuckle is an aluminium casting and has
a press fit cartridge bearing.
The independent rear suspension upper and
lower front bushes are conventional rubber
bonded bushes. The upper and lower rear bushes
contain no rubber and are essentially pressed in
ÔroseÕ bearings for superior suspension geometry
control. These are common components between
all vehicle variants and are a similar concept to

Wheel Alignment
Camber caster and toe are adjustable on the front
suspension only. Toe is the only adjustment on the
rear suspension. Camber and caster are adjusted
by means of eccentric cams on the lower control
arm mounting bolts. The front toe is adjusted by
use of the front tie rod. The rear toe is adjusted by
the use of toe link assemblies connecting the
knuckles to the rear sub-frame.
Anti-roll Bars
There are two types of front anti-roll bars, one for
all V6 and base V8 engined vehicles and one for
V8 sport. There are two types of rear anti-roll
bars, one for all V6 and base V8 engined vehicles
and one for V8 sport.
All anti-roll bars are similar to current saloon
except that the front bushes have moulded insert
for tuning.
Springs and Dampers
There are numerous variants to suit both
ÔstandardÕ and ÔsportÕ derivatives of the V6 and V8
engined vehicles. Both front and rear springs and
dampers are similar to current sports vehicles.
With a strut type assembly, integrated top mount
and two-position lower spring pan. The front and
rear co-axial strut and spring assemblies are
installed between the lower control arms and the
vehicle body.
Sports dampers are CATS only, as XK series.
The CATS suspension is similar to the system
introduced on the XK8. It is a two-stage adaptive
damping ride control. The control module is
located in the rear left-hand corner of the spare
wheel well. Three accelerometers are fitted. The
front vertical and lateral accelerometers are
mounted as an assembly to the vapour
management valve bracket. The lateral

vehicles. The bushes are not bonded in place but
require a special lubricant when assembling. Care
must be taken to ensure that the replacement
bushes are pushed fully home, the angular
orientation of the bushes is important and it is
essential to mark the position of the subframe
before removing from the vehicle or else driveline
alignment will be lost.
