Hello!
My name is Paul and reside near Milwaukee Wi. I have been pulling on wrenches for 44 years now and am semi-retired. That is I do not get a paycheck anymore but still do some side work. I had 37 years at GM dealerships and do have a Master Auto tech Certification along with FAA Airframe & PowerPlant certificate too!
I have been building Cars, Motorcycles,Boats and Aircraft since I was a teenager and still love to do it.Now Iam working on my newest project a 1999-XJ8 that is showroom clean! But that is when the good stuff ends, it has a weak transmission so now Iam looking to swap a different trans into it.
I hope to be able to help out when I can and also learn from the forum as well! I hope to post pics in the future too!

Hello, Paul,
By your credentials and experience I would guess we can Certainly use your input in this place! Someone will be along soon to direct you to the correct section where you can find help for that weak transmission.

Welcome to the forum Paul,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

Follow Norri's link in post #3 to the X308 forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the US Midwest Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-midwest-39/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
