Engine light on

Hi. I drove my 2002 XK8 recently. Drives great, but engine light came on. If you can share an idea, I would appreciate it. TY

Use OBD to read codes.

Take it to Advance Autoparts or Autozone and have them scan for codes, then report the codes here. Don't go with what they tell you is wrong as they have generic info that may not be specific to Jaguar. I would also recommend you invest in an ELM327 Bluetooth reader ($20 or so) and the Torque Pro app for Android - will help you in the future

Torque Pro app for Apple but you will still need the wifi device for the car. The other option is to go to Auto Zone or Advance Auto and ask them to read the codes.
