X Type Diesel Problems
Hi everyone, first post. I live in Norfolk, UK and currently have a 2005 X Type Sport 2.0D
It was a high miler (160k miles) when I bought it in 2009 and was great for about 3 years but then started to develop running problems. I have replaced the engine with one claimed to have done 82k miles but also ended up replacing the fuel pump and injectors. It has now developed another problem which is defying the garage. When I accelerate it goes into limp home/safe mode when the glow plug light flashes and at times the engine management light comes on. I have also recently changed the air filter and had the fuel filter changed. I believe the last fault code the garage found was low pressure (fuel I guess) when they reset the injectors (again).
Separate, but maybe connected it also kicks out black smoke when accelerating which seems common looking at the back of other x type diesels, but would love to get rid of this too.
Any suggestions, guidance and moral support welcome!
Thanks

I had a simlar prob on my Mondeo 2.0 deisel and I got shut and bought a 2.0 deisel jag. I'm kicking myself as they have the same problem. How common I dont know. Any else know?
You would think Jaguar would help owners like you (us) by supplying parts free as it
a design flaw.
Sorry cant be of any help. Mike
