2013 Jaguar XKR-S Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Jaguar's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Jaguar tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my XKR-S's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Jaguar XKR-S’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Jaguar. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Jaguar XKR-S transmission fluid leak? Yes. Jaguar XKR-S transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.
