Is the 2004 Jaguar X Type A good car?
Heads-up: rear seat leg room minimal. Fabric covering front roof supports has separated – used fabric glue to repair (easy fix). Requires premium gasoline – upside is it gets 25-27 mpg on trips, only 20 around town. AWD a plus however low ground clearance hinders going in deep snow. Been a great car – no regrets!

What should the octane level be on a JAG?
I just bought my 2004 Xtype 3.0 and the owners manual for US cars calls for 91 octane or higher. Anything less will not only void any warranty you may have, but it will start causing engine troubles. It might cost a little extra, but if you never have to see the repair bill on a jag, then it is worth it.

What kind of gas do you use in a X type?
For US specs cars I believe the recommendation is minimum of 91 octane (premium). has anyone else experimented with using 89 or 87? Yes. I have an 02′ 2.5 X-Type, with 47,000 miles. 80% of the time, I use 87 or 89 octane rated gasoline. It runs the same temp, and I get 30 mpg highway on trip, 24-26 mpg combined ( while not in sport mode ).
Is it OK to use 89 octane gas?
Lower octance gas causes them to run a bit hot, cuts fuel economy, and reduces performance. For US specs cars I believe the recommendation is minimum of 91 octane (premium). has anyone else experimented with using 89 or 87?
