Oil Consumption Test

The amount of oil an engine uses will vary with the way the vehicle is driven in addition to normal engine-to-engine variation.
This is especially true during the first 16,100 km (10,000 miles) when a new engine is being broken in or until certain internal
components become conditioned. Vehicles used in heavy-duty operation may use more oil. The following are examples of
heavy-duty operation:

Trailer towing applications
Severe loading applications
Sustained high speed operation
Engines need oil to lubricate the following internal components:
Cylinder block cylinder walls
Pistons and piston rings
Intake and exhaust valve stems
Intake and exhaust valve guides
All internal engine components

When the pistons move downward, a thin film of oil is left on the cylinder walls. As the vehicle is operated, some oil is also
drawn into the combustion chambers past the intake and exhaust valve stem seals and burned.
The following are examples of conditions that can affect oil consumption rates:
Engine size
Operator driving habits
Ambient temperatures
Quality and viscosity of oil
Engine is being run in an overfilled condition (check the oil level at least five minutes after a hot shutdown with the
vehicle parked on a level surface. The oil level should not be above the top of the cross-hatched area and the letter "F"
in FULL).

Operation under varying conditions can frequently be misleading. A vehicle that has been run for several thousand miles on
short trips or in below-freezing ambient temperatures may have consumed a "normal" amount of oil. However, when checking
the engine oil level, it may measure up to the full mark on the oil level indicator due to dilution (condensation and fuel) in the
engine crankcase. The vehicle then might be driven at high speeds on the highway where the condensation and fuel boil off.
The next time the engine oil is checked it may appear that a liter of oil was used in about 160 km (100 miles). Oil
consumption rate is about one liter per 2,400 km (1,500 miles).

Make sure the selected engine oil meets Jaguar specification and the recommended API performance category "SG" and SAE
viscosity grade as shown in the vehicle Owner's Guide. It is also important that the engine oil is changed at the intervals
specified for the typical operating conditions.
The following diagnostic procedure is used to determine the source of excessive oil consumption.


NOTE: Oil use is normally greater during the first 16,100 km (10,000 miles) of service. As mileage increases, oil use
decreases. High speed driving, towing, high ambient temperature and other factors may result in greater oil use.

1. Define excessive consumption, such as the number of miles driven per liter of oil used. Also determine customers
driving habits, such as sustained high speed operation, towing, extended idle and other considerations.
2. Verify that the engine has no external oil leaks as described under Engine Oil Leaks in this section.
3. Carry out an oil consumption test:
Run the engine to normal operating temperature. Switch engine OFF and allow oil to drain back for at least five
minutes .
With vehicle parked on level surface, check the engine oil level.
If required, add engine oil to set level exactly to the FULL mark.
Record the vehicle mileage.
Instruct the customer to return for a level check after driving the vehicle as usual for 1,610 km (1000 miles).
Check the oil level under the same conditions and at the same location as the initial check.

NOTE: If the oil consumption rate is unacceptable go to Step 4.

4. Check the Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system. Make sure the system is not plugged.

5. Check for plugged oil drain-back holes in the cylinder head and cylinder block.
6. If the condition still exists after carrying out the above tests go to step 9.

7. Carry out a cylinder compression test. Refer to the Compression Test procedure in this section. This can help determine
the source of oil consumption such as valves, piston rings or other areas.
8. Check valve guides for excessive guide clearance. Install new valve stem seals after verifying valve guide clearance.

9. Worn or damaged internal engine components can cause excessive oil consumption. Small deposits of oil on the tips of
the spark plugs can be a clue to internal oil consumption.

Operation and Component Description
Description and Operation

System Operation
SERVICE INTERVAL INDICATOR - 3.0L V6 DIESEL, 5.0L V8 SUPERCHARGER AND 5.0L V8 NATURALLY ASPIRATED ENGINES ONLY

If the vehicle is within 3,200 kilometers (1,988 miles) of a service, the message center will display 'SERVICE REQUIRED IN
XXXX km or MILES'. The display reduces the 'service required in' readout by increments every 50 kilometers (30 miles). If this
distance drops below 1 km (0.6 miles), the message center will display 'SERVICE REQUIRED'.

These messages are displayed every time the vehicle enters power mode 6, for 4 seconds after the instrument cluster bulb
check routine has finished.


NOTE: The message center will display distance to next service in miles on an instrument cluster fitted with a Miles Per
Hour (MPH) speedometer unless the driver has changed the display units on the Touch Screen Display (TSD).
Reset Procedure
To re-set the service interval indicator, the following process switch presses must each be carried out within 3 seconds:
With the vehicle in power mode 0, (ignition off) press and hold the rear fog lamp switch
Allow the vehicle to enter power mode 6 (Press the start button without a foot on the brake)
Immediately release the rear fog lamp switch
Press and hold the trip computer cycle switch
Press and hold the rear fog lamp switch
Continue to hold the trip computer and rear fog lamp switches
If the process has been successful, the message center will display 'RESETTING SERVICE MODE' and then display
'SERVICE MODE RESET' after 10 seconds
Release both switches and return the vehicle ignition to off, power mode 0.



MESSAGE CENTER Component Description

The message center LCD (liquid crystal display) display has a viewable area of 126 pixels horizontal and 174 pixels vertical. It
is divided into six information display zones as follows, starting from the top:

Set speed
Transmission position
Warning /message display
JaguarDrive Optimization icon
Odometer/Trip computer information
Fuel level.

The message center is active at all times when the ignition is on and can also be active when the ignition is off, dependant on
the information to be displayed. The message center LCD illumination is controlled by the sun load light sensor located on the instrument panel. In bright conditions, the illumination is set to maximum brightness. As the ambient light levels drop, the
illumination dims. When the lights are switched on or activated by the 'AUTO' function, the illumination operates in the same
way until a defined ambient light threshold is reached, at this point the setting of the panel illumination dimmer in the
auxiliary light switch will control the brightness.

If more than one message is active, each message is displayed for 4 seconds in the order of priority. Once all messages have
been displayed, they are again displayed in turn for 2 seconds each. Warning messages can be displayed when the ignition is
in accessory power mode 4 which is the initial ignition state when a door is opened.
Message Priority

Messages are assigned priorities which are defined by the effect on driving safety and functional ability of the vehicle. When
new messages are displayed they may be accompanied by a chime from the instrument cluster sounder. A new message will be
displayed immediately, providing the currently displayed message (if there is one) has been displayed for at least 4 seconds. A
warning indicator will be activated simultaneously with the message being displayed. If more than one fault warning message
is being displayed, the messages will cycle, in priority order, with each message being displayed for 2 seconds.

INFORMATION DISPLAY

The transmission display is located in the upper section of the LCD. The transmission position information is sent from the TCM (transmission control module) in a high speed CAN (controller area network) message to the instrument cluster. The
transmission has three modes of operation:

Conventional automatic operation (JaguarDrive selector in 'D' position)
Sport automatic operation (JaguarDrive selector in 'S' position)
Manual gear operation - Jaguar Sequential Shift.
