What’s the difference between Jaguar XK8 and XKR?
Although slightly less powerful than the outgoing 5.3-litre V12, the AJ-V8 was much lighter and helped the whole car to weigh significantly less than the hefty late-model XJS.
What kind of carbide does a Jaguar XK8 use?
F1-derived nickel-silicon carbide (Nikasil) bore liners were used; BMW and others also adopted this process, which brought issues (now sorted) with sulphur fuel additives in early engines. The Jaguar was built to much higher quality standards than before, thanks to Ford input.
When did they change the tensioners on the Jaguar XK8?
They were improved in 2002, and a durable metal alternative was fitted from 2005. If there’s no proof of replacement on earlier units, they should be checked. Upper tensioners (x2) are fairly easy to change; the lower one is trickier, so listen carefully for any untoward noises.
When to change oil and filter on Jaguar XK8?
Gearbox is officially sealed for life, but it’s vital to change oil and filter at c50-60k miles. Slippage or jerkiness means an imminent rebuild (or a blocked filter). Balljoints and wheel bearings wear, often knocking steering out of kilter.
