RE: WHOOP NOISE
ORIGINAL: erdoc
I have noticed recently on my 03 4.2l jag 45,000 miles the car makes a "whoop" noise when downshifting. It usually occurs around 20-30 mph when I hit the accelerator to pass another car etc.. the car downshifts and I hear the noise. Any thoughts?

RE: WHOOP NOISE
I had the same exact issue on my '04 XJ8 (same transmission in both cars). Car had about $31K miles on it when I bought it and it made the whoop from the day I got it...Solution was expensive (about $500) but covered under warranty. I don't have the exact TSB #, but it involves draining 2Q of transmission oil and refilling with oil + an additive. I also had jery downshifts which was a re-programming of the ECM. Here's the words I got from the work order....
"As per TSB, installed additive and topped up with 2 units of oil-transmission".
Take it to the dealer and ask them to dig out the TSB for the whooping noise on downshifts, they should be able to locate it....

RE: WHOOP NOISE
The car was bought from Carmax in Dallas. I took it to them a couple of days after I bought it due to rought shifting and the whoop and they didn't have the equipment to do a full diagnosis, so I took it to the Jaguar dealer, whom I paid and then claimed back from Carmax. I have their extended warranty but this claim was covered under their 30 day complete satisfaction warranty. Have to say the whole experience was very positive. I would expect the select warranty should cover it.

whoop noise
Seen a lot of post about draining and adding this and that, but as long as it's not a mechanical fault thing, I'm OK with it.
Please advise, thanks
