New owner--Little Info

[Jaguar1]

Hey Everyone,

I am hoping you can help. I bought a 2000 XJ8L. I love this car. But I did not get any owner info (i.e maintence book, owners manual and so on).

What oil do I use and how many quarts or Liters? I plan on using a syth. oil but I need to know what is the best weight.

this is not a simple question.if you live in a mild climate you can and should use a medium weight oil.if you use synthetice you can use 5w50 and get buy anywhere but maybe alaska.i an in california and run 5w50 in my jag year round.castrol or mobile.
