SOURCE: 2004 xj8 jaguar a/c fan

there is a relay on the firewall for that but check the fuses first to make sure its not blown...if its not blown you can run a jumper wire to test the motor itself to see if it works or not.

SOURCE: 1998 jaguar xj8 consumes anti-freeze

First thing to check is the radiator cap seal. If it is not sealing properly, the water will boil off and then soon, the anti freeze will begin to disappear. Clean the metal surfaces and gasket and make sure it is tight ---or buy a new cap --but make sure there is a seal. If that doesn't cure it, you may have a head gasket leak that blows the coolant (anti freeze) into one cylinder. If that cylinder is tight, the coolant will only evaporate in the heat and be blown out the exhaust --not entering the oil pan. Check your exhaust when you start up. You may see white smoke, or even liquid, exiting the exhaust pipe, indicating a blown head gasket (then engine may run rough, too). If this is the case, there are reasonably inexpensive cures for this in some cases.

SOURCE: very noisy squeky fron suspension on jaguar xj8

You might need a lube job or you may need to see if noise is coming from another place such as your engine water pump, brakes, power steering. Look for leaks.

SOURCE: AC BLOWER NOT BLOWING

The resistor that controls the blower motor. it is a small gadget that has a 2 or 3 wire plug . Replacing the resistor should fix your problem. It is on or near the blower motor. Under the dash. Not easy to remove . But it can be. Please give thumbs up if helped.

1996 Chevrolet C1500 Pickup 5.7L V8 what cause the valves to make a noise when the engine started up?

classic HLA problems see now for 80 years if V6/8 engines up.
they are gunked up in side.
or oil pressure is too low. (pump screen clogged)
do not read post here about valve lash, this engine has HLA
we can/t guess of other owners play around with lifters and rockers.
did it all wrong,
but here they are HLA roller , hyd. lash adjusters
as on AUTOMATIC LAST AT ZERO LIFERS
IF OIL PRESSURE TO THEM FAILS THEY FAIL.
IF PATH OF OIL FAILS TO THEM THEY FAIL
AND IF THEY ARE GUNKED UP THEY FAIL
OIL COME THE GALLERY AND LANDS AT THE TINY ONLY SEEN
BELOW WITH A RED ARROW.
most folks just put in a new set and cross fingers.

Is valve lash damaging? And should I get it fixed soon?

the valve lash ( clearance) should be hydraulic and self adjusting. If you have a noise it may be from rocker bushes and rocker arm. Any valve noise means that the correct valve timing is not happening so that affects power and economy.
