Jaguar's getting a reputation...
I have had 2 modern Jaguars. Both of them have had a lot their fair share of gremlins that I have not experienced on other cars. Even though they have not left me stranded, I do not consider them particularly reliable. I'm sure things have improved since 2007, though!
I don't think they're that reliable. Yes getting on with Denso helped but they're still wriggled with electrical issues.
Go under the car and start working on it and the amount of "after thought" things you see are just crazy!

Going by the mechanic to actually verify it is the same code that won't leave my car alone, despite doing what Jaguar said needed replacing.
Replacing a defective part indicated by a code will not erase the code itself (nor the engine light) - and there are some codes that "consumer grade" OBD II readers cannot retrieve and cannot cancel. An example: the only repair we have done in 10 years on my wife's X-Type is replacement of an 02 sensor; the "check engine" light came on; my OBD II reader could not retrieve the code, nor could it cancel the light. My mechanic (Jaguars non-dealer specialist) has the equipment to retrieve all the codes, and determine the problem; he replaced the sensor but then had to cancel the code as a separate procedure. result: no engine warning light.
