ABOUT THE
JAGUAR AJD-V6 ENGINE
The AJD-V6 is a 2.7-litre or 3.0-litre V6 diesel engine produced by Jaguar from 2003 to 2015. It was developed in collaboration with Ford and PSA, and was Jaguar's first V6 diesel - a significant engine for the brand, as it opened up diesel ownership to buyers who wanted a V6 experience rather than a four-cylinder option. It appears across three Jaguar model lines: the S-Type (X200, 2004-2007), the XF (X250, 2008-2015), and the XJ (X350, 2003-2009). The 2.7L version was offered in all three models, with a 3.0L variant introduced for the XF later in the production run.
JAGUAR AJD-V6
APPLICATIONS BY MODEL
The AJD-V6 was first introduced in the XJ (X350) in 2003, making it one of the earliest applications of this engine - the 2.7D V6 was offered from 2003 through 2009. It also appeared in the S-Type (X200) from 2004 to 2007 as the 2.7D V6. The XF (X250) carried both the 2.7L and later a 3.0L variant, from 2008 through 2015.
JAGUAR AJD-V6
ENGINE COMPATIBILITY
The AJD-V6 was offered in two capacities - 2.7L and 3.0L - across three different Jaguar models and generations. Compatibility between applications is not straightforward: a 2.7L AJD-V6 from an XJ isn't a direct match for a 3.0L AJD-V6 from an XF, even though it's the same base engine family. Ancillaries, mounting, and ECU calibration all differ by model and year. Before we quote or supply anything, we confirm your exact vehicle by registration or VIN.

OUR WORKSHOP VIEW OF
THE JAGUAR AJD-V6
Built, rebuilt and tested by engineers who work on Jaguar engines every day.
Here's our practical view of the AJD-V6 across its S-Type X200, XF X250, XJ X350 applications.
APPLICATIONS WE SEE:
The AJD-V6 appears across three Jaguar model lines - S-Type, XF and XJ - with the XF being the most common application we work on.
WHAT WE REPLACE:
Timing belt, bearings, gaskets, oil cooler seals, injector seals, and crankshaft oil seals as standard on every rebuild.
KNOWN ISSUES:
The AJD-V6 has several documented wear patterns: crankshaft bearing failure (rapid wear of liners, up to wedge and crankshaft breakage), oil leaks through the heat exchanger, timing belt breakage (belt changes every 120,000 km; belt breakage will bend valves), Siemens fuel system with piezo injectors (troublesome), EGR valve and thermostat weak points, and crankshaft oil seal failures.
AJD-V6 REBUILD INFORMATION
Typical rebuild scope:
A TYPICAL
JAGUAR AJD-V6 REBUILD
The following describes a typical rebuild scope for this engine - illustrative of the work involved, not a specific customer job. Real case studies from our own completed work will replace this section once available.
The AJD-V6 uses a timing belt, not a chain - the interval is critical, and belt breakage will bend valves. We inspect the timing belt thoroughly on every rebuild and replace it as part of our standard scope. The crankshaft bearing system is another area we pay close attention to, as rapid wear of liners can lead to wedge and crankshaft breakage. Oil cooler leaks through the heat exchanger and injector seal issues are also common - we address these as part of every strip-down.
01INSPECTION & STRIP-DOWN
Careful inspection of the crankshaft, cylinder head, and timing chain components during strip-down.
02COMPONENT REPLACEMENT
Main bearings, connecting rod bearings, gaskets, seals, and timing chain components replaced as required.
03QUALITY CHECKS
All major rotating assemblies, oil pump, and cooling system components inspected for long-term reliability.
Typical Scope:
Timing belt, bearings, gaskets, oil cooler seals, injector seals, crankshaft oil seals
Starting From:
£2,900

ENGINE REBUILD COST

A full replacement engine and fitting service is also available. Exact pricing depends on the condition of your existing engine and the parts required - submit your registration for a fixed-price quote within 30 minutes.

JAGUAR AJD-V6 REBUILD VS REPLACEMENT VS USED
Rebuilding Your AJD-V6 Engine
Most engine suppliers sell you a used engine of unknown history and hope it matches. We rebuild the engine your Jaguar already has instead - strip it down, pressure-test it, and replace every worn or damaged component with updated OEM parts. You get a near-new engine with a 12-month unlimited-mileage warranty, without the compatibility risk of an unknown used unit. This is the option most AJD-V6 owners choose, and it's the one we'd recommend for most situations.
- Strip down & inspect
- Pressure-test
- Replace worn components
- 12-month unlimited-mileage warranty
Replacement AJD-V6 Engines
If your existing engine is beyond economical repair, we also offer full engine replacement and fitting - sourced and fitted by our team, with the same 12-month unlimited-mileage warranty.
- Supplied & fitted by our team
- OEM quality
- 12-month unlimited-mileage warranty
Used AJD-V6 Engines
In some cases, a matched low-mileage used engine is the right call - particularly if you need your car back on the road quickly and your existing engine's damage is extensive. We can source and fit these too, though most owners who ask about used engines end up choosing a rebuild once they understand the compatibility risk a used unit carries, especially given the differences between 2.7L and 3.0L variants. Enter your reg below and we'll talk you through both options honestly.
- Low-mileage units
- Quick turnaround
- Condition risk - we advise honestly

Reconditioned, Refurbished or Remanufactured?
JAGUAR AJD-V6 RECONDITIONED ENGINES
"Reconditioned" is the term many owners search for when they mean the same thing as a rebuild - a full strip-down, inspection, and replacement of worn parts rather than a straight swap. If that's what you're after, our rebuild service is exactly that.
→ Our rebuild service is exactly that.
JAGUAR AJD-V6 REFURBISHED ENGINES
"Refurbished" often describes the same process from a different angle - restoring your existing engine to full working condition rather than replacing it outright. Our rebuild covers this.
→ Our rebuild service covers this.
JAGUAR AJD-V6 REMANUFACTURED ENGINES
Some owners specifically search for a "remanufactured" engine, expecting a unit rebuilt to original specification with updated components. That's consistent with what our rebuild service delivers, regardless of which of the three AJD-V6-equipped models you drive.
→ That’s consistent with what our rebuild service delivers.
