Default JAGUAR S-Type 2.7d V6 XS Diesel, 2005

Thinking of buying a nice JAGUAR S-Type 2.7d V6 XS Diesel, 2005 that I have seen with 68k on the clock for £9500. Neat looking car fukllt kitted out with 18" wheels and bodykit. Anything I should be looking for regards common faults etc ?. Also what will the next service interval be and when is the "major" service due ?

Thanks in advance guys

Service annually or 15k
Short journeys and town use can show DPF problems
Not a lot else

Smart motor !
Same colour/wheels as my 05/55 Sport which is the better looking model that preceded the XS
Honestly though I really don`t like the spoiler kitfront or back
No h/light washers ?

lol - fair point. I love the kit hence excited about the viewing tomorrow. I curently have an 02 3.0 Sport X-Type that I have hadnothing but trouble wth hence looking to part ex for this s-type. On my X I have had a lot of problems in the last 12 months hence getting rid. These have been:

Anew gearbox @ £4000
02 sensors replaced x 2 @ 300
Torwue convertor soleniod failure @ £400
Rear brake failiure @ £200
Squeaky backseat
Faulty drivers door handle
Faulty alarm

All this has been disappointing but hoping the S Types are more relable. Is the 2005 2.7D S a reliable car ? - assume 68k is not a lot ofr the manual transmission and engine in one of these ?

Attached is my current x

Hi,

I have a 2005 S Type 2.7D. Never looked back. Mine is one of the last before the DPF, I have been informed. I don't know if this is accurate, but I read on the UK Jag forum that the way to tell is that the non Euro compliant engine (older) has tail pipes facing down and the newer ones (with DPF) have them sticking straight out of the back. Perhaps somebody can confirm or put me straight?


I can confirm it because I`m the one who said it on THE UK Jag Forum
The old tailpipes were turned down to deflect the soot to the ground whereas theres no soot out of a DPF equipped exhaust hence the straight pipes.

Assume the XJ is similar?

You assume wrong, the XJd came out later than the first diesel S types and haven`t had down turned pipes so presumably have all got DPFs.

Do the S type 2.7D's suffer from any transmission problems like the X-Types do (2.5 and 3.0 petrol ones) ?

Aye changing the auto transmission fluid @ 60k was recommended.

Not many diesel owners on here (never sold in USA/Cdn) but this question is asked often on Jaguar Forum.co.uk • Index page and detailed replies are there.
