Fernando,

It sounds like a wheel balancing problem or could be a faulty tire. In the US, there is a 12 month period where tire balancing is covered by the warranty. I would bring the car back to the dealer and ask them to balance the tires. The tires can also be swapped front to back to see if the shimmy goes away or changes.

I have a 2.5 x-type with 5000 km and when I'm driving above 100 km/H I feel the car shacke.
I went to the Jaguar dealer and could not find the problem.
Does any one know about any factury problem related to this?
Why does the driving wheel shacke so much?

Best regards
