Hi,

I just bought a used X350 2.7D Build 2005 MY2006.
At, and only at, 1100 RPM there is a strong noisy vibration.
My Jag-Dealer, where I bought the car, told me that is normal, because it's a diesel engine.
Can someone verify that it's really normal?
Or does anybody no this problem and can give me a hint what the reason of it might be?
I already got the advice to regenerate the DPF and after 60 minutes at 3000 RPM it is a little better, but still there.

 

Hi and welcome to the forum!

A mate of mine has a 2007 X350 2.7D, and for sure there is no such vibration at 1100rpm.

Can you check if it's the same in other gears / same revs?

Why not introduce yourself in the New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum and feel free to stop by our Europe - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum section once you've settled in.

There are a few diesel owners on the forum, i'm sure someone has more experience with this.

 

I too have a loud buzzing at idle. It is front passenger side. Tonight I did some prodding. I grabbed the fuel lines that go down the bulkhead from the fuel filter & moved the about. The noise stopped. I guess they are vibrating against the bulkhead, i am sure it will return but I will dig deeper once the weather improves.

 

Hi did you ever found out what was the problem? The same thing is happening to me now.

 

My X350 diesel had the loud idle buzzing from the passenger side. It turned out to be the engine mount. If you unplug the cable & tape it up the noise will go.

I am told the Jaguar fix is an old fashioned rubber mount & a blanking plug for the cable.
