We took possession of a brand new 2006 X-Type 3.0 in October 2005 (first 2006's in the US, loaded, nav sys, etc.). Right away we had to take it back to have a crinkled window trim part changed under warranty, check the excessive wind noise and have them check a ticking noise like valves in the engine (ticks continuously whether hot or cold). We were told that it was the valves most likely, and, that JaguarUSA's policy is to only exchange, not repair, brand new defective engines with re manufactured USED engines. The Jag dealer attached the new chrome strip to the window and it promptly fell off 2 days later, and couldn't do anything about the loud wind noise. Sixty days later they had to replace the microphone unit in the Bluetooth system, and just yesterday (6/13), the air conditioning system stopped working for about 2 hours on I-75 and then began working again. All this and the car has less than 3800 miles on it. We believe that the Jaguar X-Type reliability hype is false, and that their policy of replacing a brand new engine with a used one is completely wrong. We strongly advise anyone thinking of buying a new or used Jaguar to think again. Vince and Pat |

Replying to: desertguy (Jun 14, 2006 1:49 pm) We had high hopes reading comments like yours before we bought the car. I don't know why ours is trouble prone but it is. We wrote to the Jag customer relations people and were told that they will replace a new engine with a used remanufactured one. The other problems have happened so they aren't made up. Hope you continue troublefree with yours, but ours has problems and we can't recommend it to anyone. Vince
