It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. 2012 Jaguar XKR-S transmission problems could include shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. Let Jaguar XKR-S transmission problems linger and you might notice your fuel economy decrease or discover that your XKR-S’s not even driveable.

2012 Jaguar XKR-S Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Jaguar? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Jaguar tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your XKR-S towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • How often does my XKR-S transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Jaguar XKR-S transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Jaguar XKR-S? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Jaguar XKR-S, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.

  • Can I still drive my Jaguar XKR-S if it has a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your XKR-S to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
