2004 Jaguar Vanden Plas Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your 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.
  • What can I tow in a Jaguar? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. Defying your Vanden Plas towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Vanden Plas is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Vanden Plas transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Jaguar Vanden Plas’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.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Jaguar Vanden Plas? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Jaguar Vanden Plas, 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.
