What’s the Importance of Your 1999 Vanden Plas’s Transmission?

Such problems aren’t hard to spot. Jaguar Vanden Plas transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood.

1999 Jaguar Vanden Plas 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 my Jaguar tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • Does my Vanden Plas's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Jaguar Vanden Plas transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Jaguar. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Jaguar Vanden Plas leak transmission fluid? Yes. Jaguar Vanden Plas 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.
  • Who fixes Jaguar Vanden Plas transmission leaks? If you have a problem with your transmission system, don’t hesitate to visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. Our expert technicians can diagnose and repair Vanden Plas transmission leaks and other issues. Schedule an appointment today!
  • Can I still drive my Jaguar Vanden Plas if it has a transmission fluid leak? Driving with a transmission fluid leak is not recommended. Transmission fluid is essential to the proper operation of the transmission system, and a leak can cause serious problems, including reduced performance, overheating, and potentially transmission failure.
