Jaguar XJ6 Sovereign memory seats & steering adjust (X300)

[grimsbychris]

Hi

Anybody got any clues on how to set the memory seats on the above?

I recently bought it and sadly it doesn't have the manual with the instructions to sort it. Its getting quite tiresome having to put the headrest back up every time i get back in the car!

Also any ideas on the steering adjustment? Can't seem to fathom why it wont move!

Thanks all

Steering adjustment can break. Can you hear the motors winding? If so, you have broken flexible axles that the motors use to move the steering wheel up and down, in and out.
Seat memory: adjust seat to your desired position, push memory button and the light in the button will come on (for 4 secs. During this time the seat position must be entered, ie, 1 , 2, or 3. Once set the memory button light will go out followed by a confirming 'beep'.
Does your seat move back when you switch the car off to allow you more space to get out? You can switch that function off by turning the steering adjustment toggle switch from 'auto' to 'off'. That will cancel entry/exit mode.

Thanks

It looks like the steering might be finished from what i can see.

I just popped out to try the memory and all seems fine. The keeps thing is the headrest keeps putting itself down! I tried it with it set to auto on also off, any ideas? to be fair i will try again in the daylight!

Good knowledge though, thanks!
