Transmission Fluid

Are you sure about the differential? After the 40K service on my 07 XK the service advisor handed me a list of recommendations. One was for differential oil change. It was late in the afternoon, I wanted to beat the traffic and I'm an hour drive from the dealer. I got a second opinion from a closer eurocar specialist who (supposedly?) replaced the blackened differential oil he showed me with synthetic oil. (One has to wonder if Jaguar used a non-synthetic ?Castrol? differential oil when the car was new for it to oxidize as it apparently did.) OK, at 45K after an oil change and alignment, the service advisor handed me a list of recommendations that included a differential service. When I questioned the necessity I was informed that the tech had not actually checked the diff. oil and that the recommendation was based on the car's mileage. If there's no differential service I've been ripped-off. If there is, you might want to correct a misunderstanding.

It appears that the transmission and differential are not serviceable.

There's probably extensive transmission information here on jaguarforums.com. However, if'n you'd visit the www.jcna.com/forums xk8-xkr forum you'll find a thread titled "Transmission Fluid and Filter Change" that addresses the ZF six speed auto transmission's fluid. I tried a link from this post to the specific thread but it didn't work.
