Hi all im desperately in need of some advice and help.
I have just received the devastating news that my engine has been written off due to a con rod failure.
The failure happened two days ago when the car suffered a loud bang and then came to a halt. When i exited the car there was a large pool of oil collecting beneath the engine. Today the garage confirmed that the engine is a complete write off.
The car is a 2011, 3 litre diesel XFs variant which has just over 80000 miles on the clock.
If anyone is able to help here are a few questions:
1: Is this a common problem with this engine?
2: I have been quoted £5000 for a replacement engine. Does this sound like a fair price?
3. What would the car be worth if i didn't have the engine replaced and sold it as is.
4. The car is only 4.5 years old, would Jaguar be of any assistance at all.
Thanks in advance
