What Does Your Jaguar XJR Transmission Do?

The transmission delivers power from the motor to your wheels so that you can drive at your desired speed. Because of the transmission’s responsibility to translate the right dose of power into the right amount of speed, a tiny transmission issue can take a major toll on your car’s performance. They're often easy to notice. Jaguar XJR transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. Let Jaguar XJR transmission problems linger and you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your XJR at all.

1999 Jaguar XJR 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. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Jaguar XJR? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your XJR’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your XJR is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my XJR's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Jaguar XJR’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.
  • Can my Jaguar XJR leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Jaguar XJR can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your XJR ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.

  • Can I still drive my Jaguar XJR if it has a transmission fluid leak? Driving your XJR with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged. Transmission fluid is vital to the smooth operation of your transmission system, and a leak can put the entire system at risk. A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
