1996 Jaguar XJ6
Summary:
Awesome car and very reliable
Faults:
The front suspension seems to have a annoying noise every time you hit a bump on a highway or a street hole, but, it is hard to determine to identify the source of the problem, it could be the front strut, or shock absorber, or the extension bars. Last time I asked the mechanic for that, he told me that all the front parts looks OK, no oil leaks from the boots are found, and the bushing looks OK too. My car have low profile tires sport version. What did you think it could be?
General Comments:
This car is a monster, runs great, the engine runs smooth, and the interior still looks impeccable. Everything from the dashboard all the way to the trunk still in its place and 100% operational.
Except for the paint and some tiny scratches, this car still looks great and it turns heads.
The engine compartment and all its components look like new, and the maintenance service is by the book.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Check your upper shock bushings; they have most likely turned to dust and are allowing the shock (s) to bang about... a common source of front end noise in x300 Jaguars.
