Jaguar X-Type

The compact saloon and estate, and the fact that explains most of it: it is a Ford Mondeo Mk3 underneath, built at Halewood on that platform with Ford's Duratec V6 rotated for four-wheel drive. So Mondeo information covers a great deal of the chassis and the 2.0 and 2.2 diesels are Ford's Duratorq, where Jaguar material is thinner. The four-wheel-drive versions use a viscous-coupled centre differential, and the front-driven 2.2 diesel — the volume car in Europe — has none of that hardware at all.

Information, not instruction

CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.

Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:

  • The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
  • What you measured, not only what you replaced.
  • What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
