SOURCE: OIL ISSUE

I have a 1990 and 1992 XJ6. When I used 10W30 I found the oil pressure guage registered very low pressure especially at high air temperatures. As far as I know the same 4.0L engine requires 20W 50 engine oil and not synthetics.
Since using that weight, and that engine needs 8 quarts......, pressure guages read perfectly.

If the brake lines and fluid is clear then you may have to look at the brake booster found at the other end of the brake pedal under the hood...

A small leak over period time will cause fault light (amber) to come on. There is no dipstick. Can only be refilled by dealer or certified Jag Mechanic. Cost of fluid at dealer $60. Quart. Check online; $15 quart

Failsafe engine mode light on. reasons why. xj308 v8 1998

My 1999 Jag XJ8 did the same thing when the cruise control was activated (red button by the gear shift), but I wasn't actually using the cruise control. I deactivated the cruise control and the fail safe message no longer appears.

99 Jag xj8l stopped shifting low gears, only goes in high gear.

You will need to have your tranny rebuilt or get a replacement. As a mechanic myslef, I have seen this a few times in the Jag XJ series. Those people eneded up having tranny replaced as well.

Not too conversant with the jag engine, but the symptoms are identical to an engine with hydraulic lifters. An oil change of the correct viscosity, usually cures the problem instantly. Hope this helps.

try putting your vehicle on a diagnostic check although you have changed the alternator the ECU ( car computer ) may still think that the alternator is still faulty a diagnostic check will cure your problem by clearing the fault codes on your ECU
