Tune-Ups to Help Your Jaguar XJ8 Run Better

Is it time for an engine tune-up? If you usually wait until your car has an issue to take it in for service, it could be time for a new way of doing things, especially if you want your 2004 Jaguar XJ8’s engine to last for a long time. Routine engine tune-ups can bring power back to your XJ8. They're designed to help your engine start easier and run more efficiently, so you can enjoy improved fuel economy and lower emissions. When you follow the guidelines specified by Jaguar for your vehicle’s tune-up schedule, you invest in your XJ8's long-term health and engine performance.

Engine Tune-Up for Jaguar XJ8

The Firestone Complete Auto Care location in your community offers several Jaguar XJ8 engine tune-up services. The first is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. This includes the installation of new spark plugs and a visual inspection of your engine’s components, plus a lifetime warranty on parts*. The second service focuses on your XJ8's filters, specifically replacing the air filter and fuel filter. Yet another service is a fuel system cleaning process, which involves removing varnish, dirt, and carbon deposits that have built up inside the fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate in your XJ8. This can improve your fuel system’s performance (and therefore, your engine’s performance). Consider this when choosing a tune-up service for your XJ8: your vehicle’s maintenance record and mileage can determine which service is best. A one-size-fits-all engine tune-up procedure doesn’t necessarily exist. Chat with a Firestone technician before you jump into a specific service to ensure your engine tune-up money is well-spent.

2004 Jaguar XJ8 Engine Tune-Up Q&A

  • What happens if my Jaguar XJ8 spark plugs fail? Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Without the spark of electricity created by spark plugs, your engine doesn’t have the combustion it needs to start — which could leave you stranded on the road. Always replace your spark plugs on time based on Jaguar’s recommendations.
  • What does a puddle underneath my Jaguar XJ8 mean? Puddles could indicate that your vehicle is leaking coolant, oil, or brake fluid. Ignoring these leaks can lead to permanent engine damage, so address these symptoms ASAP with a tune-up service.
  • Are hard starts and stops bad for my Jaguar XJ8 engine? Hard starts and stops put extra wear and tear on engine components. Smooth, gradual starts and stops, on the other hand, are a great way to help your engine run better. They can also help maximize your fuel economy.
  • Where can I have a Jaguar XJ8 tune-up done? At your local Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our technicians know how to service, maintain, and repair Jaguar XJ8s.

Reference your Jaguar owner’s manual for exact guidelines.
