Jaguar recommends having your 2012 Jaguar XKR-S’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your XKR-S may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice excess vehicle exhaust.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2012 Jaguar XKR-S

  • What can low oil do to my Jaguar XKR-S engine? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and eventually lead to Jaguar XKR-S engine failure. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • Can I change my Jaguar oil on my own? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Jaguar XKR-S spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Jaguar XKR-S oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care performs Jaguar XKR-S oil changes and more! Our technicians also replace oil filters, troubleshoot oil leaks, and advise on the right oil for your ride.
  • Why is the oil light on in my Jaguar XKR-S? The oil change light in your Jaguar XKR-S could be triggered by an overdue oil change. However, if the oil pressure light is on, you may be dealing with low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a clogged oil filter, or a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor.
  • Do I need to change my XKR-S's oil filter when I get an oil change? Every time you change the oil in your Jaguar XKR-S, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
