Default Preventing A drum failures on early XK8s?

This thread should be of interest to '96-'02 XK8 owners with the ZF 5HP24 transmission.

There may be preventative action that can be taken to prevent A-drum failures by rebuilding the valve body proactively: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...re-info-88369/

There are two threads currently discussing this on the XJ8 forum. Here is the info on the oversize valve available from Sonnax.
