2014 Jaguar XKR Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Jaguar's brakes? 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.
  • What can I tow in a Jaguar? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your XKR towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my XKR's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Jaguar XKR’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Jaguar, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Jaguar XKR leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Jaguar XKR can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your XKR ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.

A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
