Default 1997 XK8 Coupe

Bought the XK8 about 10 years ago after an XJ6 for 14 years. Love the Jags, but my transmission went two weeks ago...I could never understand a transmission that "never" needs service??? No I know better!!!

Unfortunately, many new members find our forum after a serious issue arises with their car...if only we could 'reach' out to more before something bad happens.

Well, now you're here. you might as well make yourself comfortable and enjoy the benefits.

Welcome aboard, sorry that your first experience is due to a goosed tranny.

Are you fixing or trading?

I live in France and I drive a Jaguar XKR Convertible 2002 (4.0L).
my car comes from California: Los Angeles.
The approval is almost over.
I enjoy the sun on the beach in the XKR ...
