Knocking Sound Under the Hood? Find a Jaguar Technician Before You Blow Engine
If you hear light tapping or knocking sounds in the engine of your Jaguar, it’s time to take it in to a mechanic. You may have an engine that’s about to seize. This can be a result of overheating or a lack of oil. If it has seized, you may need to replace the engine. This can be expensive, but a lot less than outright replacing the entire Jaguar. If you happen to notice your temperature gauge in the red, pull over immediately. Don’t try to make it home or even to the next gas station. You don’t want to risk blowing the engine.
