Oil Level Check

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.

For additional information, refer to Engine Oil Draining and Filling (303-01A, General Procedures).

For accuracy, oil level checks should be performed with the vehicle on level ground when the oil is hot. The vehicle needs to stand for approximately 10 minutes, after the engine is switched off, to allow the oil to drain back into the sump pan and the oil level to stabilize. The oil level system will not give a reading until the oil level has stabilized.

With the ignition on, the engine stopped and the transmission in P (park), repeatedly press the trip button on the end of the LH multifunction switch until the oil level icon and applicable message are displayed in the fuel gage/trip computer area of the message center, as shown below:
