The Check Engine light on my 1997 XK-8 came on so I took the car in for service. The service people claimed it had to do with the controller for the variable valve timing. They replaced some the valve contoller and attempted to update the programming and experienced problems with the programming. Now not only do I have the Check Engine light on all the time, but I have both the red and yellow warning lights blinking and a PECUS E error on my information display. I am now told that one of the computers must be replaced ($5K) and I just noticed that my radio now displays NO FM when you try to tune to FM stations. Clearly, a lot has gotten messed up during this service visit, but they seem unable/unwilling to properly program and fix the automobile.
First - does anyone understand what the PECUS E error means and why they are encountering difficulties reprogramming the computer?
Second - why should any of this affect the FM radio?
Third - Any suggestions on how to proceed.
To make matters worse, I noticed that they had scratched the car along the entire passenger car side while they had been working on it - I cannot believe that service from a Jaguar dealer could be so bad.
