When it comes to your Jaguar XJ8, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, your XJ8 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine XJ8 maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2001 Jaguar XJ8!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Jaguar themselves. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your XJ8 perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2001 Jaguar XJ8 problems later.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Jaguar XJ8 Running Newer, Longer

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2001 Jaguar XJ8 and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your XJ8. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2001 Jaguar XJ8? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your XJ8 may need a replacement battery sooner. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Jaguar XJ8 battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your XJ8 stranded. Your Jaguar XJ8 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 2001 Jaguar XJ8's engine run smoother. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2001 XJ8. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2001 Jaguar XJ8.

Components within your Jaguar XJ8's steering system require regular maintenance.

Without routine Jaguar XJ8 maintenance, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C.
