Why does my XKR-S’s check engine light come on when I start it?

It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. It’s just your XKR-S firing up its circuits. The light should turn off in a bit, but come see us if it doesn't.

Why does my Jaguar engine sound different?

Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Jaguar XKR-S engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can indicate a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.

What could damage my Jaguar XKR-S engine?

Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' flooring the gas pedal while the car is in Park, or pushing 'the pedal to the metal' before the engine has warmed up. Steer clear of these habits to help protect engine performance and efficiency.

Can I add water to my Jaguar XKR-S radiator?

It’s not recommended you put water in your XKR-S radiator unless it’s an emergency. Under normal circumstances, use a 50/50 mix of water and coolant or a pre-mixed coolant. But, if you need to keep driving while out of coolant, using water is better than driving with an empty coolant reservoir.

Why did my XKR-S engine suddenly stop?

Your XKR-S car engine could stop suddenly due to low fuel, electrical issues, overheating, a faulty ignition system, mechanical troubles, or sensor problems.
