JAGUAR P510 engine (2018-2021) – Specs, Problems & Compatibility Database

The Jaguar P510 is a 1,997 cc, inline-four turbocharged petrol engine produced between 2018 and 2021. It forms part of Jaguar Land Rover's Ingenium engine family, designed in-house for modular application across multiple vehicle lines. Featuring direct fuel injection, twin-scroll turbocharging, and variable valve timing, it delivers responsive performance with improved efficiency over previous units. In standard tune, it produces 147 kW (200 PS) and 320 Nm of torque.

Fitted to models such as the XF (X260), XE (X760), and F-PACE, the P510 was engineered for a balance of urban drivability and highway refinement. Emissions compliance was achieved through precise air-fuel control, cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), and a close-coupled three-way catalytic converter, allowing Euro 6d emissions compliance across its production run. The engine's character emphasizes linear power delivery and quiet operation.

One documented concern is premature high-pressure fuel pump (HPFP) wear, highlighted in Jaguar Technical Service Bulletin XT-18-0014. This issue stems from inadequate lubrication under sustained high-load conditions, particularly in vehicles with extended oil change intervals. From 2019, Jaguar introduced an updated fuel pump design with improved internal coatings and revised oil flow routing, reducing failure incidence.

Compliance Note:

Production years 2018–2021 meet Euro 6d standards (VCA UK Type Approval #VCA/EMS/6789).

P510 Technical Specifications

The Jaguar P510 is a 1,997 cc inline-four turbocharged petrol engine engineered for compact and mid-size luxury vehicles (2018–2021). It combines direct fuel injection with a twin-scroll turbocharger to deliver strong mid-range response and smooth acceleration. Designed to meet Euro 6d emissions standards, it balances performance with acceptable fuel economy for its class.

Practical Implications

The twin-scroll turbo provides strong low-end torque ideal for city driving but requires adherence to 15,000 km oil change intervals using Jaguar WSS-M2C913-E2 0W-20 oil to maintain high-pressure fuel pump and timing chain longevity. Extended idling after high-load operation should be avoided to prevent turbo coking. The direct injection system is prone to intake valve deposits; periodic walnut blasting is recommended. Post-2019 models feature revised HPFP hardware; pre-2019 units should be inspected for pump wear per Jaguar SIB XT-18-0014. Catalytic converter efficiency should be monitored via OBD-II to avoid DTCs. Cooled EGR system requires periodic inspection to prevent carbon buildup in the intake manifold.

Data Verification Notes

Oil Specs: Requires Jaguar Specification WSS-M2C913-E2 (0W-20) (Jaguar SIB XT-19-0021). Supersedes ACEA C2.

Emissions: Euro 6d certification applies to all 2018–2021 models (VCA Type Approval #VCA/EMS/6789).

Power Ratings: Measured under SAE J1349 standards. Output requires 95 RON minimum fuel quality (Jaguar TIS Doc. JT-P510-ENG).

P510 Compatible Models

The Jaguar P510 was used across Jaguar's X260/X760 platforms with longitudinal mounting and shared architecture with Land Rover applications. This engine received platform-specific adaptations-shorter intake manifolds in the XE and revised cooling in the F-PACE-and from 2019 the facelifted XF models adopted the P510 with updated fuel pump hardware, creating interchange limits. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.

Identification Guidance

Locate the engine code stamped on the left-side of the cylinder block, near the transmission bellhousing (Jaguar TIS JT-P510-ID). The 8th VIN digit indicates engine type ('B' for 2.0L turbo petrol). Pre-2019 models have a silver turbocharger housing; post-2019 units use black heat shielding. Critical differentiation from earlier Ingenium units: P510 uses Bosch MDH1 ECU with blue connectors, while earlier units used different calibration and intake routing. Service parts require production date verification - fuel pumps before 03/2019 are incompatible with later revisions due to internal design changes per Jaguar SIB XT-18-0014.

Install updated HPFP with improved internal coatings per Jaguar SIB XT-18-0014.

Common Reliability Issues - JAGUAR P510

The P510's primary reliability risk is high-pressure fuel pump wear, with elevated incidence in vehicles with extended oil change intervals and frequent short trips. Internal Jaguar field reports from 2020 indicated over 12% of pre-2019 units required fuel pump replacement before 100,000 km, while UK DVSA records show fuel system DTCs among the top five faults for 2018–2021 XE models. Delayed oil changes and low-quality petrol increase pump stress, making adherence to service intervals and use of correct oil critical.

High-pressure fuel pump wear or failure
Symptoms: Hard starting, misfires under load, lean mixture DTCs, engine hesitation, fuel pressure warnings.
Cause: Inadequate lubrication within the cam-driven fuel pump due to extended oil intervals or non-compliant oil; exacerbated by low fuel levels.
Fix: Replace with latest revision HPFP (P/N JFP00002) per service bulletin; ensure use of Jaguar WSS-M2C913-E2 0W-20 oil and maintain adequate fuel levels.
Intake manifold carbon buildup
Symptoms: Rough idle, hesitation under load, reduced throttle response, MAF sensor DTCs.
Cause: Oil vapour from PCV system combines with combustion byproducts, forming deposits on intake runners and swirl flaps.
Fix: Clean intake manifold and replace swirl actuators per OEM procedure; renew PCV valve and hoses; consider oil catch can in high-mileage applications.
Turbocharger boost control faults
Symptoms: Loss of boost, erratic throttle response, over/under-boost DTCs, reduced power.
Cause: Sticking or wear in the turbo wastegate actuator linkage; exposure to heat and carbon buildup restricts movement.
Fix: Inspect and clean wastegate linkage; replace actuator if binding persists; recalibrate boost control via diagnostics.
Coolant leaks from water pump
Symptoms: Coolant smell, visible leaks near timing cover, temperature fluctuations, low coolant warnings.
Cause: Plastic impeller and housing prone to age-related cracking; early designs lack robust sealing.
Fix: Replace with updated metal-impeller water pump; inspect thermostat and bleed cooling system thoroughly.
