I know it seems odd, but I had no trouble over the summer. I bought the car in late March when it was already warm, and had a trouble-free summer. Only in the last few weeks have I had the issue, and it coincided with the colder days. When it was 60 degrees a week ago, suddenly everything was fine again.
EDIT: My symptoms were a bit worse than yours though, because my car stayed in limp mode for about 30 minutes of driving each time. Maybe that was due to the colder temps compared to when you first experienced your issues? Its a mystery! All I know is, I'm happy its been fixed!

See thats the funny part...mine didn't happen in cold weather though? Mine was when it was still warm? I know that hose had to have been cracked for at least a few months as cracked as it was!

Yeah I hear you! I'm glad it was something small and stupid although, vital, for smooth operation!
Mine just decided to do it no particular weather or anything...It only did it twice...once when my wife started it for the first time in a week or so to drive across the street and than again when I was moving it to clean it out before we were to leave for Wisconsin...actually a couple of hours before I was leaving! I ran to autozone real quick and was back home within 1/2hour!
So I never tested it out to see the limp home mode I went and ran the obd on it asap!

I left work today and the CEL and Cruise light came back. The cruise light was gone after about a minute though. I will check the hose tomorrow to make sure it is on tight. Fingers crossed.

alright do that...testing it wouldn't take too long just find a local autozone or similar store that will let you monkey with a obd2 or just buy one!

Hi I am new to Jaguar Forums. Thanks for sharing all of this detail. I have a 02 x-type 2.5 manual and too had the 0171 and 0174 error codes. Advance suggested replacing the Mass Airflow Sensor (MAF) $80 bux. And sure enough the car went into limp home mode. Advance suggested to consider replacing O2 sensors. To get a better view I took cover of and noticed the same crack as posted above. This seems to be a common issue on these engines, the hose is way to close to engine and it is compressed by the engine cover. I am curious to find out if this fixed your error codes or not. I have 93K miles and suspect that my original fuel filter may be contributing to this problem as well. Thanks for sharing if this solved your problem with 0171 and 0174 error code.

Honestly it was difficult to pinpoint the exact problem and it was just a matter of testing each possibility and process of elimination. We replaced the mass airflow sensor, one of the oxygen sensors, tested all fuses and relays and he said it was the fuel pump. Believe me I tried every other idea and options because who wants to spend $800 to $900 bucks and find out it wasn't the problem? After replacing the fuel pump it never stalled again on me. I read that it happened to somebody else out on these boards as well.
I hope this helps.

Oh, yes, I remember now, my mechanic said he had some kind of meter on the fuel pump or some fuse to see if it would cut out while driving and he said it did.
Sorry I can't be more specific but this happened some time ago.
