Welcome to the forum theswede,
Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.
The last engine with Nikasil was built on 18th August 2000. Engines built before then are likely to have Nikasil cylinder bores unless replaced under warranty. However, the high sulphur content in fuel which was the cause of rapid wear problems was removed long ago. Any Nikasil engine still running strong with good compression is unlikely to be a problem in the future.
Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xj-xj8-xjr-x308-27/ to the X308 forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.
Please add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.
You can also visit the US Western Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-western-38/ to find other members in your region.
Enjoy the forums.
