Tune Into Your Jaguar XJR

Is it tune-up time? If you're the type of driver who waits for something to go wrong with your vehicle, now is the time to work on that habit, particularly if you want to keep your 1996 Jaguar XJR in tip-top shape. Regular engine tune-ups can optimize your XJR’s power on the road. Tune-ups help your engine start smoothly and run efficiently, which can mean better fuel economy (a win for you) and lower emissions (a win for the environment). When you get routine engine tune-ups based on Jaguar's recommendations, you’re taking vital steps toward keeping your XJR’s engine running smoother, longer.

Engine Tune-Up for Jaguar XJR

The Firestone Complete Auto Care location in your community offers several Jaguar XJR engine tune-up services. One option is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. It includes a complete visual inspection of engine components, installation of new spark plugs, and a lifetime warranty on parts*. A second service option replaces the air and fuel filter in your XJR. 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 XJR. This can improve your fuel system’s performance (and therefore, your engine’s performance). Keep in mind that your XJR's mileage and maintenance history can uniquely impact its tune-up needs. This means that a tune-up service that’s a great fit for another car may not be optimal for yours. Chat with a Firestone technician before you jump into a specific service to ensure your engine tune-up money is well-spent.

Where to Get a Jaguar XJR Tune-Up

Schedule your next 1996 XJR engine tune-up service at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Consult your vehicle’s recommended service schedule from Jaguar, or make a service appointment if you notice any of these symptoms from your engine: decreased gas mileage, "rough" idling or stalling when stopped, an illuminated check engine light on your dashboard, or a knocking sound when the engine is running.

Common Engine Tune-Up Q&A For 1996 Jaguar XJRs

  • When should Jaguar XJR spark plugs be replaced? 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 XJR mean? Puddles could indicate an oil leak, coolant leak, or brake fluid leak– all of which can critically hurt your engine. Have your engine inspected as soon as you spot a pool of liquid in your usual parking spot.
  • Are hard starts and stops bad for my Jaguar XJR engine? Hard stops and starts can lead to premature wear on your engine’s components. Lighten up that lead foot and opt for steady, fluid starts and stops instead. Your engine (and your passengers!) will thank you.
  • Where can I get a Jaguar XJR tune-up? At your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care! Whether you need Jaguar XJR service, maintenance, or repairs, our technicians can get the job done.
