I learned today that the engine on my much loved F-Pace has seized and that the replacement costs outweigh the benefit. I have had this car since new in 2016. It has done just under 140,000 miles and been regularly serviced. The only issue of note through its life has been track rod ends and earlier this year the Nox sensor which was replaced at a cost of £3,000 by the dealer (!) just before the current issue. I was driving on a dual carriageway, got a red warning light about oil and five seconds later the engine cut out completely. The jag specialist garage tells me it is likely to be a failure of a pump and was not something I could have avoided or that could have been predicted at service. I hope the manufacturer keeps alongside forums like this. I don't think in this day and age an engine of this marque should fail so ingloriously. I feel lucky I wasnt on the outside lane of a motorway in the rain. By the way - the main dealership that changed the Nox sensor was uncontactable and didn't respond to my call and mails. Although I did just get an invite to their used event by way of reply ! I really couldn't recommend them less.
