Jaguars can develop an oil leak for several reasons. The engine oil, also known as motor oil or engine lubricant, plays an extremely important role in a properly functioning engine. Engine oil is a base oil enhanced with many additives such as anti-wear, detergents, and dispersants. Detergents and dispersants in the oil help clean the engine parts as it flows through allowing for optimal performance.
The role of motor oil is to lubricate the moving parts of the engine, protect them from corrosion and rust, and keep them free of gunk. One of the most important functions of motor oil is to pull excess heat from a Jaguar’s engine to keep it cool. An improperly-lubricated engine is prone to seizing, leaving you stranded where you sit.
An oil leak can be caused by multiple issues. The leak can cause significant damage and hazards to your Jaguar and yourself. If you are driving while you experience an oil leak, depending on how fast the oil is leaking out, it can cause a fire within the engine causing extensive engine damage and a significant threat to you and your passengers.
