Hello Jag Enthusiasts

I've recently steered my wife toward the purchase of an '04 X-Type wagon. It appeared to have been very well maintained. It has everything she was hoping for: station wagon, heated seats, sunroof, automatic tranny (not my preference), and 4wd.

With it being a used vehicle I was very cautious about the purchase. We had a ppi done at a Jag specialist shop. The car had some typical issues for that mileage, 120,000 kms. The used car dealer was very good about taking care of those things at his expense. The last thing I wanted was to have been responsible for talking my wife into a lemon.

She loves the car. I am jealous. It's perfect for her.

But the problems have begun. It's the dreaded "Transmission Fault" error message.

We really love the car but this will turn into a nightmare if I can't find someone reliable to resolve this.

I'm popping over the the Tech forum now.

Keep your fingers crossed.

A.T.

Hey

Thank you all for the welcome.

Yes, the current issue is frustrating alright. The biggest challenge is finding a reliable mechanic. I did check out what ever threads I could find regarding the transmission. I jumped into one of the threads. It seams to be a common problem with the X-Type.

In any case we love the car and my gal feels really spiffy driving it. We'll figure it out.

How do I add our jag at the bottom of my posts?

Cheers

A.T.
