The 1989 Jaguar XJS: Wheel alignment
Need a wheel alignment for the 1989 Jaguar XJS? We arrange it with a trusted shop; the work is never done by CarmaCars. Hitting a pothole hard can knock the wheels out of line.
About your XJS
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. If you have the service history of your XJS, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 5.3L 12-cylinder. The 5.3L 12-cylinder does the work, through a 3-speed automatic.
How we help
Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
What to ask
Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Between shop visits
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old.
Ready when you are
Describe the problem, and we arrange a trusted shop.
Request wheel alignment
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
