Questions About 1987 Jaguar XJ6’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Jaguar? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Jaguar? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your XJ6 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your XJ6 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my XJ6's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1987 XJ6’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.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Jaguar XJ6? Yes. Jaguar XJ6 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
