Some Jaguar X-Type owners report experiencing serious issues when the engine light is blinking, accompanied by shaking and hesitation, even after replacing spark plugs and injectors. These symptoms may indicate problems such as ignition cylinder issues, which can lead to irregular engine performance. Additionally, a malfunctioning exhaust gas oxygen sensor may cause misfires during acceleration or low-speed driving, resulting in further engine hesitation. A faulty ignition coil is another potential culprit, as it can lead to misfiring and contribute to shaking and hesitation. Furthermore, a loose gas cap can trigger the check engine light and negatively impact engine performance. Given the severity of these symptoms, it is essential for owners to seek immediate inspection by a qualified mechanic to diagnose and resolve the underlying issues.
