    switchblade key

    I would buy two. A issue I see: Not only do you have to cut the key and program our remote to the new switchblade key, you have to deal with our immobilizer transponder chip. Whats your plan for that?

    FWIW-- Ford speced 5w20 for there own good, not yours

    If you took your head out off your ass, you would see. Ford took and used the AJ-V8, why the :q:q:q:q did they not take the engine oil spec too? Jaguar dose not have to conform to CAFE regulations as good as FORD dose. Jaguar is based overseas, and it dose not make as many cars. So...

    FWIW-- Ford speced 5w20 for there own good, not yours

    It is a jaguar engine. Ford used the engine design from Jaguar, and built the motors in there plant, but it still is a jaguar motor design. It still is a AJ-V8. The 2009 Jaguar Cars with the AJ-V8 still call for 5w30.

    Time For An Oil Change

    I use Redline motor oil. It is very $$$$ it is around 10 bucks a quart. It is the best performing oil I have used. It is a ester based oil(top of the line base oil) you can go to there site to order it, or to find a local dealer. I highly recommend this oil if you can/want to pay for it.
