What can go wrong

It has been established that the Charge Air Cooler (CAC) hoses and resonator pipe have not been assembled to the correct specification. It is therefore possible that under certain conditions the CAC hose can detach from the resonator. This could result in the engine cutting out and possible loss of vacuum assistance for the brake servo.

The fix

Recall the affected vehicle and rectify the issue.

As listed in the DVSA recall file. DVSA lists the same vehicle number on each line: 76. It may be a figure per line or for the whole recall.

Jaguar XJ	1 March 2012 to 31 May 2013	76

Is a specific car affected? A recall lists models and build dates, not individual vehicles, so these pages cannot tell you whether one car is included. Enter the registration on the DVSA vehicle recall checker on GOV.UK, or give the vehicle identification number (VIN) to the manufacturer or one of its dealers. Buying used? Ask the seller for proof that any recall work was done.
