nspection and Verification
1.
1. Veri
fy the customer concern.
2. 2. Confirm which, if any, warning li ghts and/or messages were displayed on the instrument cluster.
• NOTE: If any warning lights and/or me ssages were displayed when the fault occurred, refer to the Driver Information
table for DTCs associated with the display, then to the DTC index table for possible sources and actions. Some warnings will
appear to clear when the ignition is cycl ed. This is often because the warning has flagged as a resu lt of one of the vehicle's
on-board diagnostic routines having run to detect the fault. If the same routine is not run when the ignition is switched ON,
the warning will not reflag until the routine does run. See the DTC summaries for drive cycle routines.
3. 3. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical or electrical damage.

4. Veri

5. 5. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding
to the next step.
6. 6. Where the Jaguar approved diagnostic sy stem is available, complete the S93 report before clearing any or all fault
codes from the vehicle.
• NOTE: If a DTC cannot be cleared, then there is a permanent fault present that flag s again as soon as it is cleared (the
exception to this is P1260, which will only clear following an ignition OFF/ON cycle after rectification).
7. 7. If the cause is not visually evident and the Jaguar approv ed diagnostic system is not available, use a fault code
reader to retrieve the fault codes be fore proceeding to the Diagnostic Trou ble Code (DTC) Index Chart, or the
Symptom Chart if no DTCs are set.
• NOTE: If the DTC flagged was not present for two or more co nsecutive cycles, it is classed as temporary, and will be
deleted following three cycl es during which no fault was present. This could result in a reported wa rning light/message with
no stored DTCs. If a fault is present for three consecutive cycles, the DTC becomes permanent, and will remain in the
module's memory for 40 drive cycles (a cy cle is an ignition ON/OFF, which will occur during the owner's normal use of the
vehicle. No action on the part of the technician is necessary to perform this cycle. A drive cycle is a series of conditions
needed to make the on-board diagnostic ro utine run, and may need a specific action on the part of the technician. See the
DTC summaries for driv e cycle routines).
8. 8. Using the Jaguar approved diagnostic system where available, and a scan tool where not, check the freeze frame
data for information on the conditions applicable when the fault was flagged. The format of this will vary,
depending on the tool used, but can pr ovide information useful to the technician in diagnosing the fault.
CAUTION: When probing connectors to take measurements in the course of the pinpoint tests, use the adaptor kit,
part number 3548-1358-00.

decimal places, and with an up-t o-date calibration certificate. When testing resistance, always take the resistance of the
DMM leads into account.
• NOTE: Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic ro utines involving pinpoint tests.

The intake elbow di
rects the metered airflow from the electronic throttle outlet (und
erside of the throttle body) into the
intake of the supercharger.
The supercharger by-pass valve assembly is bolted to the intake elbow. The butterfly valve inside the assembly is opened
by a diaphragm actuator operated by vacu um feed from the elbow. At closed or partially open throttle positions, the
butterfly valve opens, allowing th e airflow from the two charge air cooler inlets to be directed back to the supercharger inlet .
This action inhibits the supercharging e ffect and reduces engine torque to non supercharged levels. Progressive opening of
the throttle causes the by-pass valve to gradually close.
On the right-hand side of the elbow a la rge diameter pipe connects to the brake servo. On the left-hand side the smaller
pipe supplies vacuum control for the evaporative emissions system valves.
Emissions from the engine part load breather (bank 1) and pu rged fuel vapor from the EVAP valve are drawn via a common
T piece into the left-hand side of the intake elbow. Re-cir culated exhaust gas enters the intake elbow via the EGR valve
which is mounted directly on the rear of the elbow. Where the EGR system is not used, a blanking plate is fitted.
The fuel system and emission control systems are described more fully in the relevant sections.
Fuel Pressure Regula
tion and
Cruise Control Vacuum Feed
The inlet v
acuum feed fo
r the fuel rail pressure regula tor and the cruise control system is taken from the supercharger
outlet duct. The feed pipe is located below the large charge air cooler coolant filler plug.
Superchar
ger
and associated components
Inta
ke Elbow and Bypass

The system has the
following features :
o
n
-board refueling vapour recovery (ORVR) to reduce the fu
el vapour vented directly to atmosphere from the filler
nozzle when refueling.
two ch arcoal
canisters are connected in series to reduce th
e concentration of fuel in vapour vented to atmosphere.
a t
ank pressure sensor and canister close
valve are fitted to allow the on-board di agnostic facility to test for leaks in
the fuel and evaporative system.
The canister close valve is a solenoid operated device controlled by the ECM. The valve is normally open and is closed only
during the leak test sequence.
The fuel pressure sensor is fitted to th e evaporative loss flange and provides a volt age to the ECM which is proportional to
tank vapour pressure.
Op era
tion of ORVR System
The ORVR system enabl
e
s fuel vapour generated during re-fueling to be collected by
the charcoal canisters. During normal
running of the vehicle, the vapour is collected and purged in the same way as for non-ORVR systems.

g Vapour Recovery (ORVR) System

The OR
VR system features are :
N

arrow fuel filler pipe and tank check valve.
Fue

l level vent valve (FLVV) fitted to the evaporative flan
ge and consisting of a two stage shut-off valve with rollover
protection and a pressure relief valve.
Grade ven
t valve with rollover protection, fitted to the ev
aporative flange and with an outlet pipe connected to the
FLVV vapour outlet pipe.
Large bore vapour vent pipes.

The fuel filler pipe has a reduced diameter between the nozzle guide and the tank, providing a liquid seal when re-fueling
and preventing the fuel vapour venting directly to atmosphere. There is no breather tube fitted between the tank and the
filler nozzle. To prevent spit back when re-fueling, a check valv e is fitted at the lower end of the filler pipe inside the tank
(see Figure).
During re-fueling, the tank is vented to atmosphere via the fuel level vent valv e (FLVV), large bore vapour pipes and the
charcoal canisters. The FLVV incorp orates a float valve which is closed by the rising fuel level, creating a back pressure and
causing the fuel delivery to stop. In the closed position, the FLVV also sets the fuel level.
With the FLVV closed (tank full), any increase in pressure or overfilling is relieved by a separate rollover protected grade
vent valve. The outlet from this valve feeds into the main FLVV vapour outlet pipe, bypassing the closed FLVV.
When the fuel level is below full, the FLVV opens to allow unrestricted venting via the canisters.
A pressure relief valve is incorp orated into the FLVV assembly and has an outlet pipe to the filler nozzle,. If a blockage or
other restriction (eg, canister close valve failing in the closed position) occurs in the vapour vent system, the pressure reli ef
valve opens to allow venting to atmosphere via the filler nozzle guide and fuel filler cap.
Canister purge operation is as described in Evaporative Emissions Control.
