When to Change 1993 Jaguar XJS Engine Oil

Need more info about 1993 Jaguar XJS oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know all about motor oil, too. 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.”

Your 1993 XJS’s oil should be changed according to Jaguar’s recommended oil change intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Outside of Jaguar-recommended oil change intervals, your XJS may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, 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, drive in dusty terrain, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Jaguar XJS. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

What Type of Oil Does My Jaguar XJS Need?

Whether it’s synthetic, conventional, or a blend of both — your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right oil for your Jaguar XJS. Jaguar has specifically identified either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 1993 XJS. Motor oil helps lubricate the engine’s moving parts, keep the engine cool, and prevent the build-up of harmful substances within the engine. In an oil change service, a technician will change your XJS's oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, inspect all of your other filters, top-off essential fluids, and perform a courtesy inspection on your entire vehicle. You can drive easy knowing that we strive to do what's best for your vehicle and take into account your driving preferences, weather and road conditions,

1993 Jaguar XJS Oil Change Q&A

  • What can low oil do to my Jaguar XJS engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine.

  • How hard is it to change Jaguar XJS oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Jaguar XJS exhaust smoke grayish or blue? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.

  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Jaguar XJS? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your Jaguar XJS every time you change the oil.
