Hi all ,I own a 61 plate xf 3.0l diesel that I bought because it had new engine under warranty fitted by a jag dealer at 52000miles ,it has now done 91000 and has dropped bottom end again!!! Is there a common problem with these engines?? Has anyone had same problem??,Jag not interested as they say new engine only had one yr warrant ,£2100 for a recon plus fitting ,or should I get engine rebuilt any help ,info I would be grateful,ps service s were up to date

Turns out oil has been thinned due to 4injectors leaking/faulty washing pistons with diesel some not being burnt and getting into sump, crank,bearings,1turbo all fked ,block damaged beyond repair, total bill £6000 , hope some one from jaguar see s this nd relises engines have a problem before someone else gets a bill like this from an engine that's only done 39000 miles

It is up to date serviced by jag dealer,but bought it privately,think from what everyone saying I just been unlucky ,engine being replaced now with a recon so we LL see how long this one lasts ,but I am thinking about selling it and buying a moggy 1000😊 back to basics and they do last for ever lol
