Cylinder Block: Notes
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2015 Jaguar XFR-S, 2015 Jaguar XFR, 2015 Jaguar XF, 2014 Jaguar XFR-S, and 2014 Jaguar XFR. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The cylinder block is a 90 degree configuration with cast-in iron cylinder liners and an open deck die-cast coolant jacket. The low volume coolant jacket gives good warm-up times and low piston noise levels. The longitudinal flow design of the coolant jacket, with a single cylinder head coolant transfer port in each bank, provides good rigidity and head gasket sealing.
The cylinders are numbered as shown below.
NOTE:
Front of engine is at No.1 cylinder.
