 I would like to post a similar complaint to notify other consumers who owns a jaguar x-type 2002. in august 29 2007, on my way to work the car wouldn't accelerate more that 30 miles per hour. i drove back home and i had the car towed to the nearest jaguar dealership. i had to replace the transmission for a cost of $5,400 with 59,000 miles. the first 4 years, i made several visits to the dealer to fix an engine light problem, fuel leak, reported a squeaky sound coming from the brakes (@ 10,000 miles jaguar told me i needed new brakes pads for a cost $1,200,). the radio speakers stopped working and i was told it was normal wear and tear and it will cost me $ 900 to fix it. *jb
