While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable.

Does my XJR drivetrain include the transmission?

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

All About 2004 Jaguar XJR Drivetrain Service

Your XJR drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2004 Jaguar XJR, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Jaguar's recommendations.

What Are Jaguar XJR Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are not all the same. You don't want to go to any random shop for drivetrain repair. You want to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 2004 Jaguar XJR drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Jaguar could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Jaguar XJR doesn’t drive like it used to.

Is normal to wonder whether or not 2004 Jaguar XJR drivetrain repair is expensive. Minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can lean toward being more affordable.
