What do you want to see us do with the F-Type next year?
@@Bursar60 everything is always for sale.
@Jaguar Hellcat yes!!
Colder sparkplug DIY.
Installing Minicats on the rear O2 sensors. The Federal Emissions Warranty runs out at 8Y/80K miles, most V8 Fs have both cats replaced 3 to 5 times by then. Minicats ($20 each) wont pass emissions but there are still plenty of non-emissions states.
SC pulley.
I have a 2016 R. Owned it for a few years. Still exceptionally low miles at 16k. Runs like a beast. Do the oil changes myself. Swapped the OEM pads since the stock ones are horrible for dust. Also swapped to slotted rotors. All simple east DIY
Jealous. I regret selling this car. I've had the opportunity to drive some pretty awesome cars, and I genuinely think the F-Type is one of the best ones out there for overall experience.
If it isn't GUSHING oil from 9 different fountains all over EVERYTHING. Destroying the $6,000 VANOS system and all pulleys on the serpentine at $2500, with a $4000 blown rear main seal, a $3600 frame removal to replace a cracked oil pan, and a $35,000 engine tear down to replace scored internals from sheared VANOS bolt heads that migrated from top to bottom--then it isn't a BMW.
This sounds personal. 😂
@@PerformanceOnWheels
Yes. But also a recall on all BMW straight 6s (all 69 trillion cars) for sheared VANOS bolt heads finding their way into the oil pan from the valve train. Amazing crap quality, its like they are teaching GM how to suck.
Lol
Love the FType. Sweet looking car. Your videos helped me to have an even greater appreciation for this car. Potential 30 mpg ain't bad.
Thanks Alex! Hope your doing well.
@@PerformanceOnWheels I க Bo. Bo
Mannn can’t wait to get mine in the next 2yrs hopefully 🙏 this has always been one of my dream cars and it’s good you guys are making videos like this, when it comes time for me to get it I’ll know what do do & what to look for. Thanks !
Alright what's the scoop
😂
@@PerformanceOnWheels Exactly !
I’ve watched you since you brought your F Type home. Love your channel. I own a 2018 R and have to say I bought it new and at 16,000 miles my back tires were bald. Cost 1,000 for 2 P zeros.I don’t do burn outs or anything like that. It’s just normal daily driving. In the spring we will replace all 4 with Michelin. I could not get my first oil change from the jag dealership till I had 16,000 miles. Right now I’m at 28,000 and I’ve never put anything below 91 octane in my car. I absolutely love this car!! I use dynamic/ sport and manually shift every time I drive it. I had a doe jump on my windshield at 50 mph in May and it did damage to my front end and hood. I took it to a fantastic shop that repaired high end sport cars and it cost the insurance company 20,000 and I didn’t pay a penny. It’s beautiful! I also want to say I love your log home. My husband and I built our 3 story log home on 9 acres here in NH 20 yrs ago. Not one piece of Sheetrock is in this house. It’s our dream home. 11 yrs ago a F3 tornado ( 135 mph) started on our property and circled around our house and took every single tree down! This house withstood the high winds with minimal destruction. Now all the trees have finally grew back beautiful. Good luck with your next purchase! 👍. Love watching your channel 💓
The AWD definitely holds onto tread a bit longer. Could be a perk to some. Those are two crazy stories....both car and tornado!!! Thanks for sharing and watching.
Excuse me but how many miles to the gallon do you get I’m English thank
Make a journey from A to B with limited fuel. To test how economically you can drive it.
Nice video. Well done.
30 mpg. That was done. Pretty impressive.
@@PerformanceOnWheels ah yes. Just coming to the end of the video, I saw that
But seeing how far we could get on a tank could be a good video
@@PerformanceOnWheels indeed. Or race the sunrise. Start somewhere where its started happening and get somewhere it's gonna happen first. Has been done on top gear before but it was great video. And they used a jaguar.
Im currently going through a similar thing. Just bought my 2015 f type v6 s, 29k miles from local jag dealer. Sputters on hard acceleration and misfire check engine lights come on when I do. I really think it's gas pump because the first owner rarely drove it. But Im sending it back to the dealership for diagnosis/repair
Loved your video 👏🏾 I owned a 2007 Jaguar XK and loved that Car. Now, considering the F-Type R OR a C7 Z06. Your video got me closer to choosing a Jaguar again.
Both awesome choices. The Jag will obviously be a bit more GT. The Z06 is a pretty awesome car. I have read a lot of forum and comments of folks that have owned both, they always choose the Jag over the vette. Happy car hunting and thanks for checking in!
I've had a C7 Stingray for 5 yrs now and its definitely an amazing car. Had it supercharged a couple years ago and it became even more amazing. Jag F Type R is a car im considering next week
C7 is a great car for sure. I think you will be very happy with an F-type.
@@PerformanceOnWheels Thanks for response! Anything i need to watch out for when i check it out next week? It's a '17 R with 17 K miles on it. CPO too
You will be good with cpo..... Just make sure you are looking at trim, interior quality, housing above dash board. The cpo does not cover any of that. Brakes should be good until 40ishk.
Hearing a lot about the F Type R..Jaguar has improved its quality is what I am hearing.
Amazing cars. Truly one of the best "experiences" on the market in our current era.
@@PerformanceOnWheels i am looking hard. I am hearing great things about it!
Love the exhaust sound. Shame most new performance cars coming out now have such quiet exhaust. Where's the fun in that?! Do you think this is a phase and exhaust sound will return one day.
Unfortunately with where the world is heading exhaust entirely might be gone soon.......but until then. 😏
Brilliant UA-cam thanks
I am the original owner of a 2015 F-Type R. No problems at all.
How many miles? Want to sell?
@@PerformanceOnWheels 24k miles
Sold! I'll buy it.
@@PerformanceOnWheels lol, I turned down $49k. Mine has every option and only driven by me, a retired engineer. Never tracked or driven roughly
You have one more week mate 😁, I’ll be putting mine away after this week.
Yeah.... We went from 10" of snow to 70 now.
@@PerformanceOnWheels yeah you guys had it bad up there, think we got an inch here and like you say 70s now. It’s just another thing about 2020 I guess. Hoping to tune mine up next year and do some comparison videos.
@@ryanadams9754 awesome. We will have our eyes and ears peeled.
$200 on P-Zeros has to be the worst deal ever. Go with $450 R888Rs for 10x as much traction. The F V8 will still shred R888Rs but at least the wheels won't light on fire if you floor it at 100 mph.
Love the R888. Totally agree there are better tires.
@@PerformanceOnWheels
R888-R is required for a tuned F.
Will it run on regular fuel or does it exclusively need premium??
Probably premium, the vast majority of performance cars need premium
Absolutely premium. This would not be a motor I would risk with lower than 91 octane.
Im going after the 2016 R at the beginning of the new year
You will love it!
They're going up in price again bro. Juts got one. There is a good one for about 49.9 selling in the Redlands in California. Theyll drop the price and ship it to you if talk them into it. Goodluck bro
@@jonchapa5404 I actually just got a 2017 R
@@sstrey174 nice! May i ask why you decided on the 2017 r? Not familiar with the difference. My price range was 15-16
@@jonchapa5404 Mileage...warranty and it was a couple very close by
I just saw this car for sale on Car Gurus a couple days ago
Yup!!
Love the channel, question about oil changes. If you change the oil and filter a quart and a half of oil stays in the car?
Thanks!!!! For checking in. I am not following the question in all honesty. I may need to rewatch the video to understand ! 😂.
You said in the video that if the motor is completely dry it takes 10 qts. and of you do an oil change it takes 8.5 to fill.
Correct. Completely dry as in the motor was just assembled. A quart and a half does stay in the motor
really nice informative video
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for taking the time to comment
How much did you get the car for? I am recently considering getting a 2015 F Type R as well!
I have been watching the market on these for about two years now. On average they have been sitting pretty steady in the mid 40 range. Loan value on a 2015 R is right around 50-52k. (Mine is for sale 😉)
@@PerformanceOnWheels Thank you for the great information!
Anytime!
Pilot sports are waiting for you
Indeed
How was the suspension in terms of everyday driving? Too harsh? Good enough?
It's not to bad
Are the steel brakes expensive on this car?
How much it will cost approximately to change the entire thing (brake rotors and pads)?
I've head that the carbon ceramics can go up to 12K (we don't need that)😂
It would be about 500 bucks for pads and rotors all around on an R with the steel brakes. But yes the carbon ceramics are over the top expensive
@@PerformanceOnWheels damn, that's a great deal then. I was expecting like 3 to 4K
No.. that would definitely be outrageous
They see me rollin they hate it
😎
Is this for sale? I think I see it on Cargurus lol. Even mentions the rear tires that haven't been mounted.
* Edit- confirmed from license plate that it is the one lol.
Correct.
Is this a worthwhile car?
Not sure the context of your question. However, I can almost guarantee the answer is yes.
Does the cpo warranty transfer with the sale?
Yes! Cpo follows the VIN not the owner.
You don't have a clue what means reliability if you think those are issues.. If the engine and gearbox are reliable.. All other are excuses for a new video... Try bmw and audi to see what unreliable means.. And injectors issues are only in usa.. Why? Because you have BS fuel
@performace on wheels how much head space (inches) do you have sitting and how tall are you?
We talk about sitting position in this video
ua-cam.com/video/fl1gIR0z7bc/v-deo.html
Without the CPO it would cost about 5k.either pay upfront or pay later 😂😂😂
Without the CPO I would either be doing the work myself or going to a independent shop. I know I would not be going to the dealer.
@@PerformanceOnWheels true. I'd wrench if time allows, but time is also money.
Great videos. I'm considering a type r in the future
it's probably just as reliable as a amg or a m car.
fyi just change the rear diff fluid
Good to know!
What next
Are you trying to catch me riding dirty?
@@PerformanceOnWheels haha😂 maybe
Maybe that will be next video😳
