Jaguar also recommends the cheapest oil you can buy, Pennzoil Ultra. So they have no financial motive. But they tested it for us at an expense and told us there is no unintended consequences and it can be used for 12 months oci. How many other oils have done that?
Moreover test after test after tests, Pennzoil Ultra has come out as #1, proving Jaguar right and a company that cares.
And what about all those years Castrol Unobtainium was recommended by Jaguar?
Same as every and all car manufacturers. However, none of the others were as correct as Jaguar, not even mighty Toyota.
Ok they make $40 per person, per year, more than average oil, Do they not deserve compensation for creating that spec? testing? being right?
And why arent other oil manufacturers formulating that spec and landing that windfall- cause there is no money in it.
If we dont want to rip-off Jaguar, lets see folks use a formulation/ spec not tested or approved by Jaguar- and report back if they have had fewer instances of Injector clogging, carbon build up, OCI, etc.
I understand that if you are savvy you can get away with less, but for the average person its a fair bargain for not having to learn about oil and gamble.
I just bought eight quarts of 5W30 for my XKR. It's also Valvoline Modern Engine. HAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!!! I'm gonna do it!
Seriously. I am. Right after I use that Valve and Turbo Cleaner stuff I bought last fall.

it looks like you have removed the amber reflector from your headlamp how did you do it,
I didn't remove it. My headlights have 10% headlight tint on them. I also swapped out the yellow signal lamp for a chromium coated one, which still has yellow illumination.
I DID play with the colors a bit in Paintshop though, that may have done a bit more.
Here's an unmodified picture where I still had the yellow lamps,but I guess it does hide those reflectors pretty well;

Today is Memorial Day in the USA, when we honor and remember our fallen heroes who gave their lives for freedom.
Without us Americans, George05 and everyone else on his side of the pond would be speaking German today and driving German cars made in Castle Bromwich.
Do you know what I was in when I took this photo in 1968? Look closely.
