Fluid Condition Check

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Jaguar XJ and 2018 Jaguar XJ. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Check the fluid level. Refer to the relevant section in the repair information.
  2. Observe the color and the odor of the fluid. The color under normal circumstances should be like honey, not dark brown or black.
  3. Allow the fluid to drip onto a facial tissue and examine the stain.
  4. If evidence of solid material is found, the transmission fluid pan should be removed for further inspection.
NOTE: In the event of a transmission unit replacement for internal failure, the oil cooler and pipes must also be replaced.
