banjo bolt leak on transmission line
I have a left-hand drive 2000 XJR. The banjo bolt that is on the transmission cooler line that runs from the transmission to the cooler was leaking at the transmission side, so I replaced the washers with original Jaguar washers. I reinstalled the banjo bolt. It is still leaking as bad as it was. Is there anything I should know when installing these washers? Do they need to be faced a certain way? They appear to be made the same on either side. Is it possible the banjo bolt could be the culprit? It didn't appeared to be corroded. I just replaced the pin connector, and the pan gasket, and thought I had it sealed up. Thanks, Louis

thanks, Brutal
I did have to "force" the line to line up with the bolt hole. And I know I didn't clean the area before reinstalling the banjo bolt and washers. I might've had some debris that got behind one of the washers. Brutal, what do you do if the threads are worn? Could I use some thread tape on them? So you have seen brand new seals be bad? I have heard of that before. We just don't expect it to happen to us. I hope there is a fix for this. Thank you for your time, Louis
