2012 Jaguar XK Maintenance

Take care of your Jaguar XK and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, your XK could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine XK maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2012 Jaguar XK!

Jaguar knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your XK running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2012 Jaguar XK problems.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2012 Jaguar XK for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your XK’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 2012 Jaguar XK be ready for a new battery? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your XK may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Jaguar XK battery, and so can frequent short drives. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty XK) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Jaguar XK could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2012 Jaguar XK running newer, longer. To learn how often Jaguar recommends you have the oil changed in your 2012 XK, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2012 Jaguar XK.

Maintaining your Jaguar XK steering and suspension system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled! Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, perform Jaguar XK suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Jaguar XK's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine Jaguar XK maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car. Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Jaguar XK cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is your Jaguar XK radiator in need of replacement? We got it. Is your A/C blowing hot air? We’re here to fix that, too.
