2001 Jaguar S-Type Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Jaguar's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Jaguar S-Type? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your S-Type’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • How often does my S-Type transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2001 S-Type’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Jaguar's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Jaguar S-Type leak transmission fluid? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Jaguar S-Type, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.

  • Should I avoid driving my Jaguar S-Type if there is a transmission fluid leak? Driving your S-Type with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged. Transmission fluid is vital to the smooth operation of your transmission system, and a leak can put the entire system at risk. A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
