What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2004 Jaguar XK8

Your XK8 drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Jaguar, from back to front. It's one of the most complex systems in your XK8 and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 2004 Jaguar XK8 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.

  • How often should I come in for Jaguar XK8 differential service? We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

  • Can my XK8 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 XK8'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 XK8.

As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your XK8.
  • Does my XK8 transmission belong to the drivetrain system? Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your XK8. The drivetrain is the system of components that delivers power from the engine to the wheels to propel the vehicle forward. It includes the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.
