Type .................... API Premium Grade 0W-20 Detergent Oil

A 5W-20 oil may be used if 0W-20 is not available.

You may use a synthetic oil if it meets the same requirements given for a conventional motor oil: it displays the API certification seal, and is the proper wei

Go with the schedule oil change as listed in the hand book. Otherwise 10.000 klm or 6 months . Change at 5000klm if difficult conditions.

The car takes 5w-30 semi synthetic oil. However, if you have never put synthetic oil in the car I would recommend using regular oil. I would also advise you check with your local jaguar dealer. The reason for this is if your car is not use to that kind of oil from day one it could cause seal leaks.

The typical type of oil normally used is 5W-30. and that would do fine in your vehicle. You can refer to your owner's manual for the recommended oil usage. Also check the top of the oil cap on the valve cover, which should also say a recommended oil type.

I hope this helps!

petrol engine

5W-30 meeting Jaguar spec WSSM2C913 A or B
I use Mobil Super FE Special 5-30 but there are many more oils that meet the spec.

don't know if diesel is different

depends on the service type you are doing, oil with either VAG code 505 , 507
normal service is a minimum part syn, 5w40 fixed service fully syn, 0w40

Look in the owners manual that's in the glove box, that will show what type of oil to use.
In case you don't have one
Moderate climate----- 5w/30
Hot climate----10w/30

If it is the 3.0 V6 then it takes 5.7- 6.5 ltrs of 5w/30  engine oil.
