2012 Jaguar XKR Service and Repair Manual

The 2012 Jaguar XKR came one way under the hood: a single supercharged 5.0L V8, shared across both body styles Jaguar built that year. Clearances, torque figures and step sequences on this car are the ones Jaguar set for the 2012 XKR specifically, not values carried over from a neighboring model year.

Known issues on the 2012 XKR. Diagnosis on this car starts from the symptom in front of you and the factory specification for the supercharged V8.

Both 2012 XKR body styles, coupe and convertible, run the same supercharged drivetrain, so what separates a coupe job from a convertible job is body and roof hardware rather than engine work.
