What this usually means
Jaguar XE/XF coolant loss can be water pump, thermostat, hose or plastic outlet before head-gasket failure. Pressure-test and confirm the source first.
What to ask the workshop before approving repair
- • Show the diagnostic fault codes.
- • Show photo/video proof of the failed part.
- • Give an itemised quote for parts and labour.
- • Explain why cheaper common fixes were ruled out.
- • Use/confirm: JLR SDD/Pathfinder
- • Use/confirm: Cooling system pressure tester
This is not a final diagnosis. It is a money-saving checklist before you go workshop.
