Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.

How Often to Get 2006 Jaguar XJR Oil Changes

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2006 Jaguar XJR? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Jaguar recommends changing your 2006 XJR’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your XJR 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 vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Jaguar recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Jaguar XJR. 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.

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2006 Jaguar XJR motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Jaguar has specifically identified either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 2006 XJR. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, maintain proper engine temperature, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine.

You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your XJR by considering your driving style, and mileage.
