1996 Jaguar XJ12 Oil Change

Not sure how or where to get your Jaguar XJ12’s oil changed? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Jaguar recommends having your 1996 Jaguar XJ12’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your XJ12 in the above table. Outside of Jaguar-recommended oil change intervals, your XJ12 may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Jaguar recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, adventure off-road, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Jaguar XJ12. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.

Whether you need high mileage oil, synthetic oil, or conventional oil, you'll find the right 1996 Jaguar XJ12 motor oil at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Jaguar has recommendations as to whether conventional or synthetic oil is the ideal engine oil for your 1996 XJ12. Motor oil helps lubricate the engine’s moving parts, keep the engine cool, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. In an oil change service, one of our techs will change your XJ12’s oil, replace and recycle the old oil and filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, refill vital car fluids, and perform a free inspection on the rest of your vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your XJ12 by considering your driving habits, and the number of miles on your odometer.
