1988 Jaguar XJS Oil Change

Not sure how or where to get your Jaguar XJS’s oil changed? 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. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Jaguar recommends having your 1988 Jaguar XJS’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your XJS in the above table. Outside of Jaguar-recommended oil change intervals, your XJS may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, 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, enjoy off-roading, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Jaguar XJS. 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 1988 Jaguar XJS motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Jaguar has recommendations as to whether conventional or synthetic oil is the ideal engine oil for your 1988 XJS. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, maintain proper engine temperature, and prevent harmful substances from accumulating in the engine. In an oil change service, a technician will change your XJS's oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, inspect all of your other filters, top-off essential fluids, and perform a free inspection on the rest of your vehicle. You can drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your XJS by taking into account your driving habits, weather and road conditions,
