2002 jag x-type- car wants to cut off when stopped

What is the fault code? If you don't know you need to have it tested with a scanner that reads all JAG codes, that means the dealer.

My car has a similar problem,i read the manual and the car goes to a limp home mode if the computer feels there is something wrong with the car,it happens to mine when the cruise control not available light comes on-it will also not exceed above 70mph when that particular light comes on.I was told my cruise control computer needs changing

It sounds as if the fuse which controls cruise control has burned out. Either open the fuse box, or take it to a dealership to get it fixed. I'd go to the dealer, since a Jag is an expensive piece of machinery and they probably cover it for free.

Good luck,

Had same problem with mine, the reason is too much cold air entering the engine. Replaced intake gaskets upper and lower problem went away and car drives like a charm

never heard of this before ,so obviously the cruise control is allowing the throttle to work then when it has a cough it puts engine on limp or slow speed .this vehicle is fly by wire so try changing the sensors on the pedals .Or just put it into dealers because if the correct part isnt known then changing parts willy nilly could cost more than a dealer repair

I have the same problem with the Cruise Control not available coming up but I had a smiliar problem with the ABS and Engine light coming on when battery was pretty much dead, it was hard to steer and brake.. may be something different with your car..

U will need to go to a Kragen or Autozone parts store and have the system tested for trouble code(s), there are well over 100 different code's in the system for failures, the test is free.

I had the same problem and found that the PCV breather hose was leaking, creating the vacuum leak. The codes for the error have translated to "bank 1 too lean, and bank 2 too lean." Start with the PCV breather hose and see if that doesn't fix it. You will also have to reset the computer afterwards to get rid of the error.

BEFORE YOU GO AND SPEND THE MONEY AN A KNOCK SENSOR I WOULD GO AND GET A FUEL PRESSURE TEST. IF YOU ARE LUCKY IT MAY BE STARVING FOR FUEL AND COULD BE AS SIMPLE AS A FUEL FILTER

go to checker and have them run the code for check engine light. it will probably come up as a lean code bank 1 or/and bank 2. on my x-type it was an o-ring in the intake that was cracked mechanic found it with by spraying carb and choke cleaner around the intake components.the shaking.... if it occurs at higher rpms is your car being in limp home mode i think about 3000 rpms will go away when intake problems are solved. car cutting off ? take it jag maybe a weak fuel pump,clogged jet pump or clogged fuel filter just did all of the above to my 02 x-type 3.0 sport w/ 75,000 miles.
