Problem overview

Some Jaguar XKR owners report experiencing rough idling issues accompanied by trouble codes indicating random multiple misfires, such as P0300, P0302, and P0304, which are linked to specific cylinders like cylinder 2 and cylinder 4. These owners often identify potential causes including vacuum leaks, spark plug problems, or ignition coil failures. Additionally, some report symptoms of fuel starvation, prompting checks of fuel pressures for accurate diagnosis. Issues with the supercharger bypass valve have also been noted as a contributing factor to rough idling. Furthermore, maintaining the correct air-to-fuel ratio is crucial, as any discrepancies can exacerbate misfires and idling issues. To resolve these problems, owners may need to reset fault codes, check fuel pressure, inspect the supercharger bypass valve, and ensure optimal air-to-fuel ratios.
