The XF (X250, 2008 to 2015) is Jaguar's midsize sedan. Engines include 3.0-liter V6, 4.2- and 5.0-liter V8, supercharged V8 in the XFR, and 2.2- and 3.0-liter diesels.
Model year 2012 is part of the first-generation XF (X250) (2009–2015). Most procedures are shared with the other years of this generation, but engines, options and wiring changed from year to year, so the manual is made for the 2012 model year.
Check the model year on your VIN: on a 2012 vehicle the 10th character of the 17-digit VIN is “C”. Vehicles built for North America always carry the model year in that position; on some European or Australian vehicles it may be left unused, so in that case go by the registration papers or the build plate.
At about 14 years old, a 2012 vehicle often needs work on the cooling system, timing components, suspension bushings, motor mounts and corroded electrical connectors, all jobs where the exact factory procedure and torque values save time.
Same generation: 2009 Jaguar XF, 2010 Jaguar XF, 2011 Jaguar XF, 2013 Jaguar XF, 2014 Jaguar XF, 2015 Jaguar XF.
