Your 1984 XJ6’s oil should be changed according to Jaguar’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your XJ6 in the above table. Your XJ6 may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Jaguar if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Jaguar XJ6. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

1984 Jaguar XJ6 Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Jaguar XJ6? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your Jaguar XJ6 engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • How hard is it to change Jaguar XJ6 oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Jaguar XJ6 spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Jaguar XJ6 oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs Jaguar XJ6 oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • Why is the oil light on in my Jaguar XJ6? The oil change light in your Jaguar XJ6 could be triggered by an overdue oil change. However, if the oil pressure light is on, you may be dealing with low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a clogged oil filter, or a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor.
  • Does my XJ6's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? It's recommended that you replace your Jaguar XJ6 oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
