Fuel tank half full. Why is 'low fuel' light on?
is it 2.5 or 3.0 ltr petrol? if so it is fitted with saddle type fuel tank which passes over the propshaft and has 2 fuel level sensors one each side and a jet pump to transfer fuel from one side to the other, sounds like you have problem inside the fuel tank the main fuel pump side of the tank may be drying out. rh side of tank i think. hope this helps/

2.5l engine, 5-speed A/T. How many miles can I go after gas light turns on?
It depends on what speed you're driving, if the terrain is hilly or flat, what the ambient temperature is. I haven't seen my low fuel light in ages. Keep in mind it isn't a good idea to run your fuel level so low. The fuel pump is cooled by the fuel (its inside the tank). Running the fuel level very low allows the pump to run above the fuel and not stay cool. I strongly suggest keeping the upper 3/4 tank full as I do. It certainly doesn't save anybody money to run a tank of fuel completely out before refueling. You may fill up more often over a given period of time but you're buying less fuel each time.

Is it ok to drive my xtype 2.0d when i have a split intercooler pipe?
It's not the greatest idea, but if you drive it gently you can probably get it somewhere to get fixed. I would not drive around long term like this. The car will not idle or accelerate well, and most likely will throw erroneous fault codes (check engine light will come on).

No heat, how do I tell what is causing this?
I would change the Thermostat first. Then if that didn't fix the problem. I would check to see if the coolant system is air bound. I do this by removing both Heater core hoses and running a garden hose in one of the hoses for a while. not only to flush the heater core but to get water in there. This happens at times.

Alarm is going bananas in the high winds. Can i disconnect it?
The electronics are complex.
I would advise you not to tamper with the alarm system as that is likely to trigger the security/immobilise system and stop you from starting the car.
I would take the car to a Jag service center and discuss some options with them for either fixing the problem or disabling the alarm in manner that will not cause problems with the security system.

Where is fuse for DSC located and the unit if i have to replace it ?
the dsc system. [dynamic stability control] is part of the abs system you need to get the fault codes out of the system. the fuse is unlikley to be the problem, but it is in the underbonnet fusebox. a cheap basic eobd2 fault code reader should do which only will read codes from the engine control module, but codes from the abs is also logged in the ecm, on your xtype, the most likely reasons for your problem are, the 1.reluctor rings on the rear,2.one of the front abs sensors or the link leads, the fault code is the clue. hope this helps.

I have a jaguar x type my a/c blows hot on one
1st you do realize that the zones on this auto are adjustable from side to side not just front to rear??? , 2nd this auto has an electronic temp control that auto selects whether or not it blows hot or cold on that sides seating area biased on the temp settings of the person in that seat (body temp) , I guess its possible that the dash control module for this could be defective , but its been my own experience that if no one is sitting in that seat it gets a little "confused" and seems to cycle between cold and hot , one can only feel this if you direct all the vents towards the drivers side , simple fix is not to cross direct the vents over to opp. sides , as it will maintain (if working properly) a comfortable setting on drivers side (what ever set temp is )
