Jaguar XJ coolant system leak detected by dealership with no symptoms experienced on Jaguar XJ

Problem overview

Some Jaguar XJ owners report experiencing coolant system leaks detected by dealerships, even without any noticeable symptoms. These leaks can be attributed to common issues such as loose hose connections, a broken radiator, or a failed water pump. Additionally, some owners face problems with a malfunctioning radiator or a faulty radiator cap, which can lead to overheating. In gasoline engines, coolant pipes may burst, posing a significant risk of engine damage despite the absence of immediate signs. Minor leaks from the expansion tank or loose clamps can sometimes conceal more serious issues, like a failing head gasket, resulting in coolant loss without obvious indicators. Therefore, early identification of these coolant system problems is crucial to prevent further damage, and it is advisable for owners to have their vehicles inspected promptly to address any potential leaks.
