Anyone heard of oil pump failure on early models ? Read on another site that this has been a common problem leading to engine failure requiring a replacement engine.

New one to me. The only stories I've heard of engine failure were down to owners overfilling with oil and then taking the car for a thrash!

I've seen zero issues with oil pumps.

There was someone who posted on here with issues but they had over filled by an unknown amount (possibly over 2L) and had already been warned not to drive it by a dealer due to timing issue. They posted a picture of their F-Type blown up but never posted back but their Instagram and other forum they posted oil pump and cracked crank case. All self inflicted.

It was on a Facebook post that I read it on. A UK owner had a conrod failure and Jaguar didn't want to know and he had to stump up 12k for a replacement. A few folks then commented about early F Types having oil pump problems.
