Jaguar S-Type 3.0 V6 Oil Leaks & Coolant System Wear (AJ‑V6 I6)
The AJ‑V6 is a sophisticated 3.0-litre inline-six with an integrated starter-generator and electric auxiliary compressor — a more modern and efficient design than the older AJ‑V6 V6. We replace timing chains, bearings, water pump and gaskets as standard on every AJ‑V6 rebuild.
Because the S-Type 3.0 V6 uses a completely different engine family from the V8 M178 fitted to the S‑Type 63 and GT 63 S, parts and rebuild specifications don't cross over between them.
Source: Established AJ‑V6 specialist pattern — timing chain, bearing and gasket wear across integrated-starter-generator inline-six units.

Jaguar S-Type 3.0 V6ENGINE OPTIONS
Every S-Type 3.0 V6 is different. That's why we offer the right solution for your engine, your car and your budget.
REBUILDING YOUR S‑TYPE 3.0 V6 ENGINE
Most engine suppliers sell you a used engine of unknown history and hope it matches. We rebuild the engine your S‑Type 3.0 V6 already has instead — strip it down, pressure‑test it, and replace every worn or damaged component (timing chain, tensioners, and gaskets) 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 S‑Type owners choose, and it’s the one we’d recommend for most situations.
RECONDITIONED S‑TYPE 3.0 V6 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.
REFURBISHED S‑TYPE 3.0 V6 ENGINES
Similarly, “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.
REMANUFACTURED S‑TYPE 3.0 V6 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 on the AJ‑V6.
REPLACEMENT S‑TYPE 3.0 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 warranty.
USED S‑TYPE 3.0 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. Enter your reg below and we’ll talk you through both options honestly.
NOT SURE WHICH OPTION IS RIGHT FOR YOU?

ABOUT THE Jaguar S-Type 3.0 V6 ENGINE

The S‑Type 3.0 V6 uses the AJ‑V6 — a 3.0‑litre V6 petrol. It was fitted from 1999 to 2008 across the X200 generation. It sits above the 2.5 V6 as the mid‑range petrol option in the S‑Type lineup. The S‑Type 3.0 V6 is no longer in production, but we continue to rebuild and replace engines for every one still on the road. Jaguar S‑Type 3.0 V6 Engine Compatibility The S‑Type 3.0 V6 uses a single engine family, the AJ‑V6, across all generations (X200). Because the engine code is consistent across the production run, there’s no risk of a mid‑generation engine change that affects fitment — but we still confirm your exact car by registration before quoting to ensure ancillaries and ECU specifications match your specific build.
