My 03 xtype seems to "overheat" on occaision - the temp gauge goes to full hot, the cruise control shuts off , warning lights come on and the car doesn't run right. I pull over and check the antifreeze, etc, everything seems fine - there is no other indication of an overheat.
After some research online, I found that the a sensor misread causes this. It usually happens when on a long drive, and going from an uphill to a downhill, or from cold to warm or warm to cold temps. The engine cools down too quickly and the computer thinks there is an error. I've been told to try changing the thermostat or the coolant temp sensor. I've done neither since the problem is sporadic and I'm comfortable the car isn't really overheating. Try a search on Jaguarforums.com. Good luck
