It should be the same as your door key.

It depends on the year of your car (at least for UK models it does)

On late facelift cars, the petrol cap key is completely separate from the other keys.

Jaguar Heritage keep records of all the original key numbers for your car, if that helps.

Good luck

On the first of the facelift cars the door key is also the fuel cap key, but if you have the tibbe door key you will need to get a key made.

If you've got a Tibbes door and ignition key, sadly, I would be amazed if your local locksmith has a code for the separate fuel cap flat blade key. Even Jaguar dealers can't access the build key codes. Only Jaguar Heritage have access to those records.

Good luck with getting it sorted.
