'95 Jaguar Vanden Plas

My Jag has the 4.0L Straight Six and I have at least one bad shock. Does anyone on here know of a good repair manual or website with step by step instructions on how to replace shocks?
 
Check the vendors on site, there are only a few manuals and CDs and they would have them available.
 
Look for the JTIS - Jaguar Technical Information Service CD's and also from British Motor Industry Heritage Trust - JHM1178.

These have all the information known to mechanics that is reliable.

You ought to be able to locate these easily on EBAY. I have found that AllData and Mitchell both may have errors, and the other manuals are simply not detailed enough.

The JTIS has a second CD that includes technical Service Bulletins that should always be referenced when doing service.

Without these CD's I would never be able to keep my 96 VDP running.

All I do when researching a problem and repairing is look up the sections and print only the areas I need.

It takes a bit of reading to understand how the Jaguar manuals are organized, but once you understand how they fit together, it is not difficult.

Cheers!
