TH15 XER MOT History
Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.
5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2015 Jaguar Xe (TH15 XER) between June 2024 and July 2026.
The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.
The most recent test on 08 July 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.
Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (2 issues), Lighting (1 issue), Tyres (1 issue), Suspension (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 2 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: “Offside Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Offside Front Brake hose excessively twisted (1.1.12 (b) (ii))”; “Supplementary restraint system warning lamp indicates a fault (7.1.6 (a))”.

Our Verdict
This 2015 Jaguar XE is a reasonable buy if priced accordingly, but the MOT history shows two past failures that warrant caution. Budget for immediate brake and suspension attention as flagged in the most recent test.
When viewing this Jaguar XE, ask for proof that the 2024 brake hose and SRS warning fault, plus the 2025 rear tyre, were properly repaired following their failures — receipts or a specialist report would confirm the work. Given the recent advisory for worn front brake pads and a worn suspension bush, negotiate a reduction of a few hundred pounds or request these be addressed before collection. As no aggregate reliability data exists for the XE, lean on a full service history to evidence care; without it, consider an independent inspection given Jaguar's variable reputation for electrical and suspension components.
The 2.0-litre petrol XE typically returns mid-30s mpg in real-world use, with road tax for a 2015 petrol car likely in the £200-£300 annual band depending on emissions. Insurance groups for the XE sit around 25-35, so premiums will be higher than a mainstream hatchback, and Jaguar parts and labour add to maintenance costs. We estimate total annual running costs at £1,200-£1,600 including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing based on the mileage and model profile.
The 2026 MOT noted front brake pads wearing thin and a near-side front suspension arm bush worn but not excessive — physically check pad thickness and bush condition, as these may need replacement soon. The 2024 failure for an excessively twisted offside front brake hose and SRS warning lamp means you should verify the brake lines are correctly routed and the airbag system is fault-free via a diagnostic scan. The 2025 failure was a sub-1.6mm offside rear tyre, so inspect all tyre tread depths and look for uneven wear that could signal alignment issues from the noted suspension wear.
The white 2015 Jaguar XE (TH15XER) has covered 53,634 miles as of its July 2026 MOT, which is modest for an 11-year-old car. Its history includes two MOT failures in 2024 and 2025 for a twisted brake hose with SRS warning, and a worn rear tyre, though all were subsequently resolved and the last two tests passed. The 2.0-litre petrol engine and below-average mileage support a fair value proposition, but minor wear items are now emerging.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Jaguar XE, so model-wide dependability cannot be assessed from the provided figures.

Historical fault & advisory patterns
Common Problems: JAGUAR XE
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- 2.0 Ingenium Diesel Timing Chain Stretch & Plastic Guide Rattle(Serious)
The rear-mounted single-row timing chains on 2.0-litre Ingenium diesel engines stretch due to extended 21k-mile oil change schedules. The plastic chain guides fracture, causing severe rattling from the rear of the engine and imminent valve contact requiring an engine-out rebuild.
- Diesel Oil Dilution & Interrupted DPF Regeneration Turbo Wear(Serious)
Frequent short journeys interrupt active DPF regeneration cycles, causing unburnt diesel to wash down the cylinder walls into the engine sump. Thinning oil destroys the ceramic balance shaft bearings and turbocharger thrust bearings.
- Turbocharger Electronic Variable-Nozzle Actuator Jam(Serious)
The electronic stepper motor actuator mounted to the turbocharger develops internal gear wear or thermal solder cracking, sticking the variable-geometry vanes and causing sudden loss of boost.
- InControl Touch / Touch Pro Infotainment Screen Freezing & Blackout(Moderate)
The central touchscreen system suffers from memory leaks and firmware bugs, leading to frozen navigation displays, black reversing camera screens, and dropped smartphone Bluetooth connections.
- Rear Integral-Link Lower Suspension Hydrobush Creaking & Tearing(Moderate)
The aluminum integral link rear suspension bushes dry out and split, causing loud squeaking and creaking over speed humps and allowing rear-axle tramlining on rutted motorways.
