Jaguar S-Type Steering Wheel Vibration-Revised Power Assisted Steering Rack

Issue:
On some 2001-2002 MY S-TYPE vehicles within the above VIN range, customers may
complain of a steering wheel vibration.  A new Power Assisted Steering (PAS) rack
incorporating a modified mechanism to improve center feel has been introduced.

Action:
When all other steering vibration causes have been eliminated, (e.g. out of balance
wheels  - as per Technical Bulletins S204-07 and S204-09) and all possible mechanical
causes have been addressed, a new modified PAS rack should be installed. On a
customer complaint basis only, follow the workshop procedure outlined below.

Note: Replacement of the PAS rack for any other concerns must be
carried out using the normal replacement PAS racks as appropriate.

Note: The improvement to the PAS rack is designed to eliminate slight
shimmy that may be felt at the steering wheel and is not designed to
compensate for other influences.

WORKSHOP PROCEDURE
1. Disconnect battery (see Workshop Manual, JTIS CD ROM, section: 414-01).
2. Install new PAS rack (see Workshop Manual,  JTIS CD ROM, section: 211-02, SRO
57.10.01).
3. Connect battery (see Workshop Manual, JTIS CD ROM, section: 414-01).
