Hey everyone. My 2.5 is just over 60K miles and I was wonding what was involved in the 60k service? Also if anyone knows the cost and what not, that would be great! Thanks

 

I 2ND THIS MOTION.. WHAT IS REQ?

 

a simple search would have turned up this: https://www.jaguarforums.com/m_1103/tm.htm

 

I did try to search. I must no have put in the right words?

 

Just walk into the dealership with your butt-cheeks opened! At least demand for a complementary reach-around. That or diy.

 

I just got back from the dealer and they gave me a price list for all of the services. Here is what they list for the 60k service, which is slightly different from the information listed in the link above. Per the service rep, these prices are the same across the US for all Jaguar dealerships (except for the sales tax).

For 2003 to 2006 X-Types, the total cost for the 60k service is $431.41. The breakdown is as follows:
Time: 2.4
Parts: $129.22
Labor: $265.91
Tax: $9.69
S/S: $26.59

For 2002 X-Types, the total cost for the 60k service is $464.99. The breakdown is as follows:
Time: 2.5
Parts: $148.50
Labor: $277.59
Tax: $11.14
S/S: $27.76

Now, for what the service involves:
[ul][*]Check/top brake fluid, coolant, power assisted steering fluid, windshield washer fluid, andbattery electrolytelevels[*]Check drive belt tension wear indicator(s)[*]Visually check engine compartment for leaks[*]Replace pollen filter[*]Check spare tire in trunk[*]Replace engine oil, filter and drain plug washer[*]Inspect break pads for wear; check rotor condition on pad change[*]Visually check underbody for fluid leaks[*]Check tire pressures[*]Perform comprehensive road test; verify parking break operation[/ul]
That's about it. I hope that this information helps some of you. However, the service rep that I dealt with today took me outside and recommended that I just come in for oil changes and allow them to perform the FREE Jaguar 27-point courtesy inspection each time. He said that it covers pretty much everything above and will only cost $59.95 for the oil change. Just an FYI!

 

If you are paying 2.5 hours for a service, I need to go work there. I think we get 1.3 for services.
60k should include fuel filter replacement.

 

According to the paperwork that they gave me, it says: replace fuel filter (all models except X-Type) at 60k miles; replace fuel filter (X-Type models only) at 70K miles. However, you are the professional one here. I'm a Social Worker, so I don't know a whole lot about cars.

 

I'm sorry but are people really shelling out that much money for those items listed? (Nods head in disgust). Come to my place and I'll do all of including an oil change w/a long drain interval and supply you cold beers for $200! (and I'm still pocketing $170)

Sorry, but that's mind-boggling. I'm taking the standpoint that this is all inspection, if components are found to be worn, the bill immediately sky rockets.

 

Fuel filter on mine was changed at 70k as per the Jaguar maintence schedule sheet.
Was absolutely minging so wont be leaving it as long next time.

 

I fell sorry for folks that can't DIY on stuff like this and depend on the Dealer to hose them...Dirty shame too, that they charge $500 for mostly inspections.[:@]

 

I am glad i read this post cause i am at 55000 on my X and was going for the 60k service this summer. I am amazed at the cost for someone to look at things?

 

Oil change costs me $38.
