I ain a 2015 Jaguar XF 2.2 L with 50k Km connected the Odo. Serviced by Jaguar little than 2K km agone and fixed a cleanable chit.

It was moving good till then, with nary informing lights oregon noticeable issues erstwhile driving, specified arsenic gears slipping oregon immoderate weird noises during shifts.

But each of a abrupt past week, it refused to commencement oregon adjacent crank 1 evening.

Had the car towed and aft inspection, the Jaguar SA says the apt crushed is simply a transmission lipid cooler nonaccomplishment which has allowed coolant to premix with the transmission oil, causing the transmission to neglect wholly and besides stroke a fuse successful the process which was the crushed the car wouldn't start.

The proposal is to person the full transmission replaced arsenic a flush oregon a rebuild won't work. The outgo of a caller transmission is prohibitively expensive.

Doing my probe online, this does not look to beryllium a communal contented with the Jaguar, which has the coagulated ZF8 transmission. Even failures of the lipid cooler (more common) don't look to beryllium thing that commonly causes a implicit transmission nonaccomplishment successful the car, particularly successful little than 2k Km aft being inspected and serviced astatine the dealership.

Any proposal connected however to proceed with handling the contented and getting the car backmost connected the road? Unsure if determination is simply a anticipation of a rebuild I did look up utilized transmissions from Europe which are reasonably priced, but coding the TCM to the car possibly a challenge.

Also, immoderate anticipation of penning to JLR and trying to clasp them accountable successful immoderate mode for the uncommon contented (especially astatine 5k Kms) oregon their negligence successful spotting immoderate symptoms?

Thank You.
