Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Jan 02, 2009 11:26 am) just get tired of people blaming their mistakes on their car and had to put something on the website. Maybe someone else will read it and save themselves some money. Soberguy.

| Based on the problems I've had, I believe that if Jaguar had made a recall out of what tyggerss's ex-husband did to fix her transmission problems, we wouldn't be having this whole discussion. Once I shut my car off, it resets the computer and all the problems go away. If you continue to run your car in the mode the computer puts it into, you can cause permanent damage to the transmission. When I get a transmission fault, I let off the throttle and turn the car off and immediately on, and the problem goes away. I think the computer is reacting to a faulty sensor and once that is cleared, it works normally. I really believe that this is the type of problem that Jaguar should take responsibility for. These are too fine of cars to let that type of support not be afforded. | |

| Helpful tip. Always use the handbrake to relieve stress off the transmission, leave the handbrake on when switching from park to reverse or drive, once in drive or reverse take off the handbrake. Really does help out your transmission | |

Replying to: blonddie66 (Oct 08, 2008 8:23 pm) i have a problem please let me explain... have a "gearbox warning light" hich comes on no and again, usually when the wife is driving the car. I have had this looked at " no issues" £500 later . It could be computer related.nks all Its not worth spenind serious cash on this for a electrical experienced mechanic, so does anyone know how i can manually removed the dashboard warning light, " gearbox fault" - can i take out a fuse etc? i need an easy life from the wife, she wont have it that i have spent £500 and " nothing is wrong" - id really appreciate any adivce. Or if i cannot remove it perminately, is it poss to remove it short term, for example just before she drives it? thanks all Jeff |

We are disgusted with our 2005 Jaguar S-type. It has 51,090 miles on the car. i called Jaguar to inquire about the gearbox message and was told it was no longer under warranty. I am still driving the car and do not know what to do. Does anyone have any suggestions, I was told by a mechanic at the Jaguar dealer it could be my gas cap. I checked my gas cap and it is disconnected. HELP!!!
