Why is my Jaguar XJ transmission not working?
The transmission “neutralization” problem had to do with the ABS system. The ABS sensor and harness to the left rear tire were bad and needed to be replaced. However, this didn’t correct the problem. A bearing was loose on the same tire, and tighten that finally fixed the problem.

Good luck. I have a 1990 xj40 that has a 4.0 liter that run great and has been fully tuned. the nagging problem that I have is that after washing the car the transmission jumps to limp home set for about a week to ten days and the works fine.

How much does a rebuilt transmission cost on a Jaguar XJ?
Last spring at 80,000 I had a rebuilt transmission installed from a transmission shop. A rebuilt transmission cost was $3200, while a brand new transmission is $7000+ from dealer. Rebuilt possibly can last another 20-30,000. Good luck.

Can a 98 XJ8 shift into a 4th?
MY 98 xj8 does not shift into 4 or 5th ( higher than 3rd). In drive, it runs through 1St 2 nd and 3rd, then at 2200 rps it disengages and the trans fault lights up. If I start on the other side of the j gate in 3rd its stays engaged. 4th is the same as drive.

I have a 2004 XJ8. When shifting from Drive to Park (brake pedal depressed), the shifter moved into park but the transmission went to reverse. The shift lever will not move out of park, but the car would drive backwards with the break released. Shut the car off, now it won’t start.
When to change the plugs on a 2000 XJ8 Trans.?
At 100,000 miles one is supposed to change plugs on a 2000, and when they change them, they are supposed to look at the chains. By the way, when a 2000 XJ8 trans. starts to go, it moves into a special zone…I believe it’s the third gear called something like limp home mode.
