Simple? oil change question

Yep - I'm told the extractor method is quicker and less hassle, because you only remove the filler cap and loosen the oil filter, which is why it's popular with workshops.
But the conventional way works equally well. They say to run the engine for 10 mins & then remove the filler cap and loosen the oil filter 4 turns, and leave the car for 10 mins for everything to drain into the sump before removing the filter and the drain plug (beware of hot oil!). Also, you should then replace the filter element & its o-ring.

Sorry, no idea about XJRs of that vintage - you'd be better off asking in the X308 Jag forum:
