Jaguar XE 300 Sport Oil Leaks & Coolant System Wear (AJ126 (3.0L V6 supercharged) I6)

The AJ126 (3.0L V6 supercharged) 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 AJ126 (3.0L V6 supercharged) V6. We replace timing chains, bearings, water pump and gaskets as standard on every AJ126 (3.0L V6 supercharged) rebuild.

Because the XE 300 Sport uses a completely different engine family from the V8 M178 fitted to the XE 63 and GT 63 S, parts and rebuild specifications don't cross over between them.

Source: Established AJ126 (3.0L V6 supercharged) specialist pattern — timing chain, bearing and gasket wear across integrated-starter-generator inline-six units.

Jaguar XE 300 SportENGINE OPTIONS

Every XE 300 Sport is different. That's why we offer the right solution for your engine, your car and your budget.

01MOST POPULAR

REBUILDING YOUR XE 300 SPORT ENGINE

Most engine suppliers sell you a used engine of unknown history and hope it matches. We rebuild the engine your XE 300 Sport already has instead — strip it down, pressure-test it, and replace every worn or damaged component (timing chain, tensioners, guides) 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 XE 300 Sport owners choose, and it's the one we'd recommend for most situations.

02

REPLACEMENT XE 300 SPORT 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.

03

USED XE 300 SPORT 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?

Enter your registration below and we'll confirm your AJ126 (3.0L V6 supercharged) and talk you through the best solution for your XE 300 Sport, honestly.

ABOUT THE Jaguar XE 300 Sport ENGINE

Jaguar AMG GT 53 engine and sedan

The XE 300 Sport was a special-edition variant of the X760-generation XE, produced from around 2018 to 2019. It uses the AJ126 — a 3.0-litre supercharged V6 petrol engine, shared with other performance-oriented Jaguar models of the era. The 300 Sport sat above the standard V6 S in the XE range, offering a more focused specification with distinct styling and chassis upgrades. The AJ126 is a direct-injection, supercharged unit that delivers strong, linear power — characteristic of Jaguar's supercharged V6 family. The XE 300 Sport is no longer in production, but we continue to rebuild and replace engines for every one still on the road. Jaguar XE 300 Sport Engine Compatibility The XE 300 Sport uses the AJ126 supercharged V6, fitted exclusively to the X760 generation. Before we quote or supply anything, we confirm: Your exact engine code (AJ126) via registration or VIN Your generation (X760) Drivetrain and ancillary specification Any electronics or ECU considerations specific to your exact build This is why we always start with your registration rather than a generic XE quote — it protects you from paying for parts that don't fit your actual car.
