What’s the Importance of Your 1985 XJ6’s Transmission?

They're often easy to notice. 1985 Jaguar XJ6 transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking on the road, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood. If you don’t pay attention to Jaguar XJ6 transmission trouble you might notice your fuel economy decrease or discover that your XJ6’s not even driveable.

1985 Jaguar XJ6 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. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Jaguar XJ6? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your XJ6’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • How often does my XJ6 transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Jaguar XJ6’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. 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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Jaguar XJ6 transmission fluid leak? Yes. Jaguar XJ6 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 does Jaguar XJ6 transmission repair? When your XJ6 transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Can I still drive my Jaguar XJ6 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.
