Can Jaguar drivetrain maintenance help me save money?

Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.

What are signs my Jaguar drivetrain is damaged?

Your Jaguar XJS drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.

When should I come in for Jaguar XJS differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my XJS?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your XJS can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Can my XJS malfunction warning light be reset at home?

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 XJS'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 XJS.

How worried should I be about a drivetrain malfunction in my XJS?

A drivetrain malfunction in your XJS should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.

Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my XJS?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your XJS includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your XJS forward.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1992 Jaguar XJS

Your XJS’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Jaguar, from the axles to the transmission. It's one of the most complex systems in your XJS and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. Care for your 1992 Jaguar XJS to maintain its performance power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Jaguar's recommendations.

We can take care of most 1992 Jaguar XJS drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. 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.

Is normal to wonder whether or not 1992 Jaguar XJS drivetrain repair is expensive. Minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, are usually pretty affordable.
