When should I come in for Jaguar XKR differential service?

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

Can you reset your XKR’s malfunction warning light at home?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems.

Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.

Is my XKR’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your XKR. 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.
