In the mid 1990's Jaguar began using their own internal engine oil quality specification system. The engine oil quality specifications and standards were put in place to ensure that a higher quality level of engine oil would be used rather than broader and more general API or ACEA oil quality specifications. The new specifications and standards ensure optimal engine reliability and longevity. There are currently 6 different engine oil quality specifications that have been established for Jaguar engines since the mid 1990’s. Each Jaguar oil quality specification denoted by letters and numbers, signifies the necessary oil chemical properties and performance level required for specific Jaguar engine applications. Jaguar engines that experience mechanical issues or failures can be attributed to the prolonged use of low to mid quality engine oils that are not in accordance with the Jaguar engine oil quality standards. Using the correct Jaguar oil specification as suggested by Jaguar for your engine type will offer the best possible engine performance, protection, and longevity. Below you will find a brief overview and explanation of the Jaguar engine oil specifications along with the basic engine application they coincide with.
How to confirm which Jaguar oil specification is right for your engine?
Always consult your service manual and confirm the exact specific fluid and oil requirements for your specific Jaguar engine application. The recommended Jaguar oil, specifications, quality standards, and oil viscosity weight are specified in your owner's manual. These specifications can typically be referenced in the owner's manual index under engine oil or operating fluids. If you have lost your owner's manual and are having difficulty determining what type of Jaguar oil to use, you may wish to refer to our BLAU® Oil Change Kits for your Jaguar model. Our oil change kits conveniently include the correct Jaguar oil type, amount of oil, oil filter, and hardware for each specific model and engine type.
PAGE DISCLAIMER: The Jaguar motor oil information on this page should not be used as a substitute for what your vehicle owner's manual, factory service manual, or authorized Jaguar dealer recommends. Consult your owner's manual for the correct type of Jaguar oil that is to be used for your specific Jaguar model. The Jaguar oil specifications referenced in the article are used internationally. However, the Jaguar engine and year applications referenced apply only to Jaguar models available in the USA.
