Low Oil Pressure Warning
An oil can icon usually means low oil pressure, which can lead to serious engine damage. Pull over safely, turn off the engine, and check your oil level. If you need service, see our Jaguar oil change options.
Engine Temperature Warning
A thermometer or temperature symbol means your engine may be overheating. Pull over when it’s safe, shut the engine off, and let it cool. If overheating happens again, it’s time for a professional inspection.

Check Engine Light
The check engine light can signal many issues, from a loose gas cap to an emissions or sensor problem. If it’s flashing, reduce speed and get service as soon as possible.
Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPMS) Light
This light means one or more tires may be under-inflated. Check pressure and inflate to the recommended level. If you need help, visit Jaguar tire service.
ABS and Stability Control Warnings
If the ABS or stability control light turns on, these safety systems may not be working correctly. Your Jaguar can still drive, but braking and traction support may be reduced, especially in wet conditions.
