Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.
20 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Jaguar X-Type (BV08 YCG) between March 2011 and March 2026.
The record contains 16 passes and 4 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (10 issues), Windscreen (8 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Tyres (3 issues), Lighting (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 22 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.
Recorded failure items include: “Exhaust emissions exceed level of metered smoke for a turbo charged engine (8.2.2.2 (b))”; “Front Brake disc significantly and obviously worn (1.1.14 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”.
Common Problems: JAGUAR X-TYPE
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Sill Corrosion(Serious)
The plastic sill covers trap moisture and road salt, leading to terminal rust that is hidden from view until it fails an MOT.
- AWD Transfer Box Failure(Serious)
The transfer box on 2.5 and 3.0 AWD models holds very little oil and has no service interval, leading to bearing failure.
- Thermostat Housing Coolant Leak(Moderate)
The plastic thermostat housing on the Duratec V6 engines becomes brittle from heat cycling and cracks, leading to coolant loss. The leak typically starts as a slow seep but can progress to a steady drip or spray, risking overheating if not caught early.
