Some Jaguar XJ8 owners report experiencing starting issues potentially caused by a faulty starter. Common culprits for these no-start problems include a dead battery, alternator issues, or a failed starter. Many owners find that resolving these issues often requires replacing the alternator, starter, or battery, as well as addressing connections, ignition system repairs, or fuel system repairs. When the starter is malfunctioning, it may prevent the engine from starting, even if it turns over normally. Additionally, some owners may face complications from a sticking throttle plate, which can lead to no compression and prevent the engine from catching. Therefore, diagnosing and addressing the starter is crucial for resolving starting difficulties in the Jaguar XJ8.
