How often will I need Jaguar XJ6 differential service?

Is it possible to reset the XJ6 malfunction warning light on my own?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your XJ6's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your XJ6.

Does my XJ6 drivetrain include the transmission?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your XJ6’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your XJ6 forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1990 Jaguar XJ6

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your XJ6's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Jaguar, from the axles to the transmission. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1990 Jaguar XJ6, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Jaguar's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.
