Connor- really appreciate the how to videos you are producing for the F-Type. I recently bought a white 2015 and am enjoying the car. Have you ever used FR3 Friction Reducer? I have used it in my cars and just added it to my Jag. They claim a 5% increase in HP.

No dipstick is just plain stupid. I hate how this is becoming a trend. I am researching the F-Type R for my next vehicle and DIY serviceability is a huge factor. Thanks for the video!

Daniel Judd says:

Thanks for the video, does the engine cover pull off or are there any screws / bolts to undo first?

3000 miles is way too long for a GDI. Also GF5 0/5W-20 has been cancelled by vehicle manufactures for virtually zero wear protection and causes premature GDI timing chain failures.

Use 5W-40 minimum, 10W-60 is recommended by Castrol for 500HP+. And pump it out every 1000-1500 milies, its just $25, half a tank of gas.

The filter is good to 10K miles since filters are completely useless money makers. They do absolutely nothing to prevent wear, 90% of wear is caused by 1-2 micron metal particles. Filters catch 20 micron and higher and do zilch to remove GDI soot. A Franz or Amsoil toilet paper filter is a different story, and will keep your oil cleaner than new in the bottle. That prevents some wear.

The new GF6 standard replaces GF5 as of May 2020, but its aimed at ultra high fuel economy oils, only. The AJ133 dates to 1997 when 10W-40 was standard. If you use SAE20 weight oil, have your timing guides and chain replaced every 80K miles to prevent catastropic engine damage from soot contamination, wear, and stretching.

Dealers LOVE to overfill awd 2016+ model Ftypes. Morons.

I need to change my spark plugs on my f-type with V8 but can not find any movie on Youtube that shows how to do it. Anyone who knows?

jimmy Valentine says:

Please, help me out here sir, I need your technical expert opinion. Prior to an oil and filter change on my "F-Type" at a jaguar dealership, I'd loosened up the oil cap. I'd rotated it 1/8 of a turn counterclockwise. After I picked my car, I noticed the oil cap was at the same spot, as if it was not touched. The oil filter housing was clean and I did not see any sign of oil or mess. The edge between the cap and the oil filter housing was dry. Based on these, I formed an opinion that the technician failed to change my oil and filter. My question is, Can the oil filter be replaced without any sign of spilled oil drops? I contacted the service manager, and future discussions with him were futile. What would have been your opinion? Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for creating. Surprisingly similar to my old RS5.

Dan Kupis says:

How did you get rid of the service require light on start up?

Steven Andrews says:

Damn man that’s so nice! Been really wanting to get into one soon I’d seen a 2016 a couple hours away for a good deal. How it been holding up the last 5-6 months?

cobras559 says:

Hey man I notice your not using castrol oil like recommend.
Is this liqui moly safe to use in my 2016 R?

cobras559 says:

Good video man. I was thinking about going this route. The traditional way! However it seems everyone on the F-Type forum is really suggesting to do the oil change with the mityvac. No need to go under the car and it tells you exactly the amount you extracted so you know how much to put back in.
Your thoughts? ?

Gunner says:

Great vid! What brand vacuum did you have (that broke) so I know which one not to get? Thx!

BoostedS54.2 says:

Should just get a mityvac and just suck the oil out. There is a rod under the oil cap for this.

evan vasi says:

why is v6 more oil than v8?
