If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and cause your Jaguar XJ12 engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.

Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Jaguar XJ12 spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, fried piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
