2006 Jaguar S-Type Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Jaguar's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Jaguar tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your S-Type’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your S-Type is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my S-Type transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Jaguar S-Type’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Jaguar S-Type leak transmission fluid? Yes. Jaguar S-Type transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Where can I get my  Jaguar S-Type transmission fixed? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair S-Type transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Jaguar S-Type if it has a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your S-Type if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
