2. WARNING: BEFORE PROCEEDING, IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT
THE WARNING NOTES GIVEN IN SECTION 100-00 (UNDER THE
HEADING 'SAFETY PRECAUTIONS') ARE READ AND
UNDERSTOOD.
Depressurize the fuel sy stem; refer to 19.50.02.

3. R
emove engine covers.

4. Di
sconnect bank 1 or 2 inject
or connectors and reposition
harness to allow access to injectors.
5. Remove bolts which secure fuel injector clamp plate to inlet
manifold.

RNING: Make sure
the vehicle is in NEUTRAL or PARK for vehicles with au tomatic transmission, NEUTRAL for
vehicles with manual transmissi on, and apply the parking brake. Failure to foll ow this instruction may result in personal
injury.
1. 1. Verify the customer concern.
2. 2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical or electrical damage, correct fitment, etc.

sual Inspection Chart
3.
3. If an obvi
ous cause for an observed or
reported concern is found, correct th e cause (if possible) before proceeding
to the next step.
4. 4. If the concern is not visually evident, refer to the Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) index.
CAUTION: When probing connectors to take measurements in the course of the pinpoint tests, use the adaptor kit,
part number 3548-1358-00. Failure to follow this in struction may result in damage to the vehicle.
• NOTE: When performing electrical voltag e or resistance tests, always use a digital multimeter (DMM) accurate to 3
decimal places, and with an up-t o-date calibration certificate. When testing resistance, always take the resistance of the
DMM leads into account.
• NOTE: Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic ro utines involving pinpoint tests.

Description an
d Operation
I

ntake Air Distribution and Filtering - Normally Aspirated Vehicles
Air Intake Asse
mbly

The air cleaner assembly consists of a two piece box containing the air filter, an airflow/temperature unit and the air intake
duct which connects to the top of the throttle assembly. The en gine full load breather feeds into the intake duct from the
bank 1 camshaft cover. A tuned stub on the ai r intake duct reduces the intake noise level.
Mass Air Flow and Temperature Sensors

The intake air is monitored by the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor assembly which is fitted at the outlet of the air filter
assembly. Two sensors are incorporated in the MAF sensor assembly, measuring air flow and temperature (temperature
sensor arrowed); both sensors provide anal ogue signal inputs to the engine control module (ECM) and are further described
in Section 303-14.

the
intake elbow provide connections for vacuum actuators and are also used to redirect emissions into the engine.
On the right-hand side of the elbow a la rge diameter pipe connects to the brake servo. The smaller pipe provides a vacuum
feed to the fuel rail pressure regulator and throttle cruise control system. On the le ft-hand side of the elbow the front pipe
supplies vacuum control for the evaporative emissions system valves.
Emissions from the engine part load breather (bank 2) and pu rged fuel vapor from the EVAP valve are drawn via a common
T piece into the left-hand side of the intake elbow. Re-cir culated exhaust gas enters the intake elbow via the EGR valve
which is mounted directly on the rear of the elbow : where the EGR system is not used, a blanking plate is fitted.
The fuel system, throttle and emission control system s are described more fully in the relevant sections.
Intake Manifold

Filtered air from the vehicle's intake ducting is metered by th e electronic throttle and distributed to the two cylinder banks
via an integral intake manifold.
The intake manifold is manufactured in plastic with integral plastic fuel rails and metal-thread inserts; the very smooth
internal surfaces give excellent air flow.
Individual ducts lead off a central chamber to the inlet valves of each cylinder.
Silicon-rubber gaskets, loca ted in channels in the intake manifold, seal th e joints between the ducts and the cylinder heads.
Engine Ventilation

The e
ngine is ventilated through two brea
thers; a part-load breather and a full-load breather, one on each camshaft cover.
The outlet hose for the part-load breather is connected between the bank 2 camshaft cover and the intake elbow. The full-
load outlet hose is connected from the bank 1 camshaft cover to the intake duct between the MAF sensor assembly and the
throttle body.
Constructed in plastic, the hoses incorporate O-ring seal s and quick-release connectors; refer to Section 303-01.
I
ntake Air Distribution and Filtering - Supercharged Vehicles
Ai
r is supplied to the supercharger via an
intake cleaner/duct, throttle assembly and intake elbow which are similar to those
used for normally aspirated engines. The su percharger delivers pressurized air to two separate charge air cooler units, each
unit being mounted on the cy linder bank which it supplies. Pr essurized cooled air is fed from the charge air coolers directly
into each inlet port.

V
isual Inspection Chart
2.
2. If
an obvious cause for an observed or
reported concern is found, correct th e cause (if possible) before proceeding
to the next step.
3. 3. If the concern is not visually evident, verify the symptom and proceed with diagnosis, using the Jaguar approved
diagnostic system, where available.
4. 4. Where K-Line or Vacutec equipment is available, it should be used as an aid to diagnosis. The equipment must be
capable of testing to the 0.020 thou standard (2001 MY on).
Diagnostic Drive Cycles
Following th
e setting of a DTC, the appropriate repairs must
be carried out, and the normal operation of the system
checked. This will be done by performing a series of drive cycles which will enable the vehicle to operate the evaporative
emissions system as a function check. For details of the drive cycles,

Diagnostic Trouble Code
(D
TC) index/Symptom Chart
1.
1. Wh
ere the Jaguar approved diagnostic sy
stem is available, complete the S93 report before clearing any or all fault
codes from the vehicle.
• NOTE: If a DTC cannot be cleared, then there is a permanent fault present that flag s again as soon as it is cleared. (The
exception to this is P1260, which will only clear following an ignition OFF/ON cycle after rectification).
2. 2. If the cause is not visually evident and the Jaguar approv ed diagnostic system is not available, use a fault code
reader to retrieve the fault codes be fore proceeding to the Diagnostic Trou ble Code (DTC) Index Chart, or the
Symptom Chart if no DTCs are set.
3. 3. Using the Jaguar approved diagnostic system where available, and a scan tool where not, check the freeze frame
data for information on the conditions applicable when the fault was flagged. The format of this will vary,
depending on the tool used, but can pr ovide information useful to the technician in diagnosing the fault.
CAUTION: When probing connectors to take measurements in the course of the pinpoint tests, use the adaptor kit,
part number 3548-1358-00.
• NOTE: When performing electrical voltag e or resistance tests, always use a digital multimeter (DMM) accurate to 3
decimal places, and with an up-t o-date calibration certificate. When testing resistance, always take the resistance of the
DMM leads into account.
• NOTE: Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic ro utines involving pinpoint tests.
