What is the problem with the 2.7 diesel engine on the Jaguar S-type?
Years 1999-2008

Answer

The problem with this engine is mainly caused by the pollution of the engine oil generated by the DPF, which fails to regenerate properly on short circuits and causes burnt diesel to leak into the oil. The only way to avoid problems with this engine is therefore - especially if the vehicle is used frequently in the city - to change the oil every 6 months or 8,000 kilometers.
