New member/ supercharger/ engine troubles
Hi I'm Logan, I'm 26 years old and currently live in canada. I bought my 2015 ultra blue xfrs in early 2019 and I'm currently on my 1st year of not having jaguar cpo warranty.
I am wondering if anyone else has experienced the same issue I'm having at the moment. I don't have any engine codes showing but when I get into acceleration (typically WOT or atleast half) there's a strange noise coming from what I think is the supercharger (engine bay for sure). Its hard to explain the sound so I've attached a video. Best way I can describe it is a static clunky kind of sound, almost like a walkie talkie static sound but the decibals go up and down as the rpms build up.
I took it to my local mechanic who isn't familiar with jags or superchargers but he really wasn't sure what it is.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Cheers!

Welcome to Jaguar Forums Logan,
Good to have you with us.
I've copied your post to the X260 tech section follow this link to find it https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...oubles-273788/
2015 was the change over from X250 to X260 if yours is a X250 let me know and I can move it.
You could try taking off the supercharger belt and see if that eliminates the noise.
Enjoy the forum.
If you haven't done so already you should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.
If you need help with getting around and using the forum follow this link for some help Forum Help
