The 2005 Jaguar XJ8 doesn't have many transmission problems. Some drivers have reported issues with the control module, causing the transmission to experience shifting problems like not shifting correctly or skipping shifts, potentially leading to engine over-revving. To prevent most transmission issues, it's recommended to regularly check the fluid level, ideally once a month, and ensure it stays within the normal operating range. Additionally, follow the fluid change schedule outlined in the owner's manual. Over time, the fluid's viscosity degrades, reducing its ability to protect the transmission's internal components. The movement of components in the transmission generates friction and heat, gradually breaking down the fluid.
