Report: Persistent Coolant Loss Due to Small Leak at Coolant Reservoir
Jaguar X-Type Problem
Model Years Affected: 2002, 2003
Average Mileage: 71,750 mi (65,000 mi - 80,000 mi)
The plastic coolant reservoir is prone to leak. The reservoir can mysteriously lose coolant or coolant may pool under the engine compartment. If this occurs, the coolant reservoir should be inspected for cracks. If leaks are neglected, the reservoir may fail and cause the engine to overheat.
