2018 Jaguar F-PACE Engine Problems

While driving, the engine suddenly shut off without warning. The first incident occurred in May 2025 and stalled twice in late August 2025. Each time I lost motive power and steering/brake assist dropped, I coasted to a safe spot, turned the ignition off and back on, and the vehicle restarted. In May, a shop retrieved P0087 – fuel rail/system pressure too low. They could not reproduce the problem, added DEF, and cleared the code. The issue has recurred. No crash or injuries. The Check Engine light was on in May; no other warnings were noted at the time of the stall. The vehicle is available for inspection and is being towed to a diesel specialist for diagnosis. Suspected area is the fuel delivery system (low rail pressure). Odometer: 47,500.

The cooling fan runs at extremely high speed for no reason and makes an extremely loud noise. There have been similar multiple complaints on jaguar e pace forums

The timing chain is the issues and yes it is available to inspect upon request. My safety has been put at risk because this snap at anytime. My car stalls and has really rough idling. Yes I have reported this rattle noise but I was told nothing was found, the noise got worse with the idling and I was told my car was out of warranty and the timing chain was breaking down.It started with the misfire, then rough idling and now the engine light. The rattling started and was first reported at 50k miles.

after 4 and a half years I started obbserving a strange exhaust noise when accelerating which a shirt while later became accompanied by a shuddering/shaking of the engine when accelerating

ON 7.9.2019 CAR WAS IN ECO MODE. WENT DOWN HILL, STOPPED AT LIGHT TO TURN RIGHT. CAR TURNED OFF AS SHOULD BUT WOULD NOT COME BACK ON. ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED AS, NO POWER TO CAR AS WAS TRYING TO PULL OFF TO SIDE OF ROAD, ALMOST HIT GUARDRAIL BECAUSE COULD NOT TURN WHEEL EASILY AS NO POWER STEERING. CAR WAS IN DRIVE STILL. HAD TO TRY AND GET OUT OF THE WAY BEFORE I COULD ATTEMPT TO RESTART. HAD TO PUT IN PARK AND START ENGINE AGAIN. VERY DANGEROUS. THE ECO ON/OFF DOES NOT ALWAYS GO OFF WHEN IT SHOULD EVEN THOUGH IT IS TURNED ON. SAME DAY, SAME ROUTE. STOPPED AT STOP SIGNS OR RED LIGHTS AND SOMETIMES SHUTS CAR OFF AND SOMETIMES DOES NOT.

ENGINE ABRUPTLY LOSES POWER WHEN DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEEDS IN BOTH CITY AND HIGHWAY CONDITIONS CAUSING POTENTIAL INJURY AND/OR DEATH TO DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS. JAGUAR/LAND ROVER IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND CONTINUES TO SELL VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THIS CONDITION. JAGUAR/LAND ROVER HAS BEEN WORKING ON A SOFTWARE FIX (P0190 SOFTWARE PATCH) FOR MONTHS, BUT HAS NOT NOTIFIED DRIVERS OF THIS POTENTIALLY SERIOUS CONDITION.
