How do I know if my Jaguar drivetrain is damaged?

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

What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a XKR-S?

Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your XKR-S’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.

Is it possible to reset the XKR-S malfunction warning light on my own?

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 XKR-S'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 XKR-S.

How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my XKR-S?

Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my XKR-S?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your XKR-S 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 XKR-S forward.

All About 2014 Jaguar XKR-S Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your XKR-S's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Jaguar, from the axles to the transmission. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2014 Jaguar XKR-S, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Jaguar's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

What Are Jaguar XKR-S Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 2014 Jaguar XKR-S drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Jaguar XKR-S may need driveshaft attention if you feel vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. It's hard to put a timeframe on drivetrain repair. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." So much depends on the climate and your driving style. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Jaguar XKR-S.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2014 Jaguar XKR-S? Again, it depends!
