Recommendations for a good old Jaguar mechanic

Swampy · 2011-12-14 13:09:23

Hi all, Looking for a mechanic in Dublin who has experience with old jags. I have a 97 XJ6 and it is making serious belt and/or pulley noises (i think) on ignition. This is getting worse in the cold weather. I've already had the idler pulley replaced by a mechanic but it did nothing. I would rather deal with a mechanic…

Hi all,

Looking for a mechanic in Dublin who has experience with old jags. I have a 97 XJ6 and it is making serious belt and/or pulley noises (i think) on ignition. This is getting worse in the cold weather. I've already had the idler pulley replaced by a mechanic but it did nothing. I would rather deal with a mechanic with experience in this problem in these cars.

Thanks.

Alasta Autos used to have a few older Jaguars about the place, I don't know whether they still work on them. Stanley's a bit gruff, but he's good.

I think you are just looking for a competent mechanic with a sense of pride in his work
