Why does my JAG make an air intake sound when idle?
Removing the top mounted air filters could sometimes result in flames being spat into your face as it ignited. In those days it was caused by incorrect timing. Given that your Jag will be electronically controlled, timing is not adjustable. However, you say the car runs fine, which I’m sure it does, above idle speed.
Why does my Jaguar X-type make a noise when idle?
The engine isn’t misfiring in fact the engine runs really well, it’s just that noise. Righ, well my theory was it’s made by the piston pulled down by crankshaft without the ignition, but I am probably wrong if your engine is working properly… 1 month later… That, to me, sounds like fuel igniting in the inlet.
What causes an engine to spit out the intake manifold?
With the valves open, result of the ignition will be spitting and it will manifest through the intake manifold. This is often referred to as the ignition timing problem. Spark plugs might seem an afterthought but they really are the bones for an engine to function normally.
What causes the air intake to misfire at idle?
At low engine speeds, ie- idle speed, the flywheel momentum is enough to disguise these minor misfires and you generally won’t feel them, but the lack of a full spark causes the misfire nonetheless.

Why is my air intake sound coming from my car?
It’s possible, with EGR circuits these days, that it is igniting in the exhaust and being heard throughout the system, but if it is a misfire causing it, to that degree, I’d be concerned.
