2010 Jaguar XJ

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2010 XJ.

Body PASSENGER CARTransmission Automatic (S6)

The 2010 Jaguar XJ is a passenger car that carries an automatic S6 transmission and achieves EPA fuel economy of 16 city/23 highway/19 combined mpg. Built on a platform that underpins its luxury positioning, the model inherits a powertrain that pairs with the brand’s traditional engineering focus. Its placement in the model’s 1995‑2019 production window means it arrives after the peak complaint year of 2005 (53 complaints) but before the overall span ends in 2019, situating it in a period of relatively moderate complaint volume compared with earlier extremes.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 15,000 mi; spark plugs at 105,000 mi; coolant every 15,000 mi. The big-interval services (every 15,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.
