Hey Guys,

Wondering what the 'Jaguar' recommended service is for an 06 XK8 convertible at 75,000 or 80,000 miles.

Thanks in advance.

Dave,

Your US 'Victory' edition is the equivalent of my UK 'S'. For reasons best known to themselves, Jaguar publish the maintenance information as a 'Passport to Service' manual in the US and a 'Maintenance Schedules' manual in the UK. The two documents contain the same schedules with the service items listed in a different order!

The service interval is 10k unless the vehicle is used for short journeys or in severe conditions. In this situation, the procedures scheduled at 10k should be performed at intervals not exceeding 6 months.

The 'Passport to Service' for the 2003 through 2006 Model Years groups XJ, X and XK in the same manual. To make it relevant to our vehicles only, I've extracted the service items for XK8/XKR in the following table:

Jaguar XK8 & XKR 4.2 Maintenance Schedules.pdf

It goes up to 150k miles. You'll see there's a frequency pattern for each item which makes it easy to extrapolate beyond this mileage if required.
