Common Problems with the
2010 Jaguar X-Type

The 2010 Jaguar X-Type has an excellent reliability record with no widely reported common faults for this model year period.

Buying Tips for 2010 Jaguar X-Type

  • Crucial: Check the sills behind the plastic covers for rot; this is the most common MOT failure for X-Types in the UK.
  • On AWD models, listen for a whining noise from the transfer box; they have a low oil capacity and are prone to failure.
  • Diesel models (2.0d/2.2d) are generally robust but suffer from typical Ford/PSA-derived EGR and injector issues.
