The 2012 Jaguar XK: Battery boost
For battery service on the 2012 Jaguar XK, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and never does the work itself. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
Your car, your notes
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 5.0L 8-cylinder. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The 5.0L 8-cylinder, paired with a 6-speed automatic, drives it.
From request to repair
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date.
A car while yours is in the shop
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. The rental is priced like any other on our site. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Between shop visits
Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
What to ask
Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history.
One more step
Describe the problem, and we arrange a trusted shop.
Request battery boost
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
