Automatic gears stick in acceleration
Hi group this is my first post
I have a 2002 xk8 automatic 4.2 V8 with 99000 miles
my problem is when I accelerate from a stop position sometimes the gears wont change and stick and obviously the revs go right up to 4000-5000 then if I hit the accelerator to speed off it clears and changes as normal
it don't do it all the time
Do I have major problems or is it something simple
