What do we check during the APK for your Jaguar?

The APK is the same legal inspection for every make: brakes, tyres, steering, suspension, lights, seat belts, emissions and the vehicle identification (VIN and number plate). On a Jaguar, there are a few points we look at with extra care, or that you as the owner can keep an eye on:

  • I-Pace: according to the AP news agency, in 2024 Jaguar recalled the 2019 model year I-Pace because of a battery fire risk. Until the repair has been done, the car charges to a maximum of 80 percent. The I-Pace does not get an emissions test. These cars mainly use the electric motor to brake, so the brake discs get little use and can rust.
  • 2.0 diesel engine (Ingenium): according to Autoblog.it, on the 2.0 diesel in the XE, XF and F-Pace from 2015 onwards, the balance shaft bearings can wear, especially with a lot of short journeys. The balance shaft makes the engine run smoothly. Have the oil changed in good time.
  • Diesel with a DPF: on a Jaguar diesel with a factory-fitted DPF (diesel particulate filter), the particle counter test is part of the APK. A removed DPF means the car fails.
  • Classic Jaguar cars: on an XJ6, XJS or E-Type, we pay extra attention to rust, the brake pipes and the exhaust. Different requirements sometimes apply to a classic car, for example for emissions.

Servicing your Jaguar with us

We service your Jaguar according to the manufacturer’s schedule, with oil that meets the specified standard. On an Ingenium diesel, we advise you to have the oil changed in good time.

  • Following the Jaguar schedule: we use your registration number to look up which service your car needs, and we use parts and fluids that suit your car.
  • Manufacturer’s warranty: having your car serviced by an independent garage does not automatically end your manufacturer’s warranty, as long as the work follows the manufacturer’s schedule and uses suitable parts. We record the service in our system and you get an invoice listing all the work. Keep it in a safe place.
  • Free APK with a major service: if you have the APK done at the same time as a major service, you pay nothing for the inspection.
  • Price in advance: call +31 10 479 00 00 and give us your registration number. We will tell you straight away what the service costs.

Our mechanics hold a GMTO certificate (the Dutch qualification for working on high-voltage systems). This means they can work safely on hybrid and electric cars. Read more about servicing hybrid and electric cars (in Dutch).
