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 (DG58 DLO) between December 2011 and April 2026.
The record contains 13 passes and 7 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (14 issues), Suspension (11 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Brakes (8 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 34 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 default limit of 1.5m-1 (8.2.2.2 (b))”; “Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords damaged inner sidewall - cracked to excess (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm insecurely attached pinch bolt - insecure (5.3.3 (a) (i))”.

Known faults for Jaguar Jaguar X-Type
Our database tracks 5 specific mechanical faults and recurring failure patterns identified across UK MOT testing stations for this generation.
MOT Roadworthiness: Average

Verify lender finance agreements, insurance write-offs, police stolen registers, and mileage rollback.
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.
