Frequently Asked Questions
From £6,300–£6,900 - including fitment, ECU reset, road test, and 12-month unlimited mileage warranty. This covers the complete P300 Ingenium engine rebuild at our Billericay workshop using OEM-spec components including the turbo actuator LR072310 and timing chain kit LR096682.
Yes, with proper maintenance. The P300's Ingenium engine is engineered for performance driving, but turbo actuator failures (LR072310) and timing chain issues can occur after 50k miles in spirited use. We've rebuilt over 120 Jaguar F‑TYPE P300 engines since 2009 with reinforced components specifically for performance driving patterns, addressing these common failure points with updated parts and precision metrology.
Turbo actuator failure (LR072310) is the most common issue in X264 chassis Jaguars, typically occurring between 40,000-60,000 miles. This manifests as power loss after cold starts and triggers limp mode. Our rebuild process includes replacing this component with the updated version per JLR TSB-23-007, along with ECU recalibration specific to the F-TYPE's performance parameters at our Billericay workshop.
Yes - we use Autologic and JLR SDD tools for full ECU coding, adaptation, and immobilizer synchronization specific to the Jaguar F‑TYPE P300's X264 chassis. This includes proper calibration after turbo actuator replacement (LR072310) and timing chain service (LR096682). All coding is performed in-house at our Unit A5 Windsor Road facility, ensuring complete system integration before road testing.
The P300 Ingenium engine (AJ200P) remained largely unchanged between pre-facelift (2017-2022) and facelift (2022-present) models, though ECU mapping received minor updates for emissions compliance. The common failure points - turbo actuator (LR072310) and timing chain tensioner - affect both generations equally. Our rebuild process addresses these issues with upgraded components regardless of model year, performed to the same exacting standards at our Billericay workshop.
A properly rebuilt Jaguar F‑TYPE P300 engine should last 80,000-100,000 miles under normal driving conditions. Our rebuilds include critical upgrades like the updated turbo actuator (LR072310) and reinforced timing chain kit (LR096682) that address known failure points. With our 12-month unlimited mileage warranty and performance-specific break-in procedures conducted at our Billericay facility, owners typically experience reliability matching or exceeding the original factory engine.
