I am in a catch 22 situation. The transmission went out on my 2001 S type Jaguar last Fall. I was quoted over $6,000 by the dealer to "rebuild" the transmission. After a few months, I found someone to rebuild my transmission for $2000, plus towing, etc. Long story, but supposedly the transmission was rebuilt with a one year warranty. However, I was told a squirrel had eaten much of the wiring, and they only worked on transmissions. Since the car wouldn't run, I couldn't test drive the transmission repair. I towed it to a certified mechanic who did diagnose the electrical problem, but says the transmission was not repaired properly and it needs to have the transmission rebuilt. He won't fix the electrical until the transmission is rebuilt because he can't test it. I can't prove to the transmission repair shop that the transmission isn't working because the electrical isn't working. I just want the car fixed! I asked that the electrical work be done so that I can take it back to get the transmission work done under warranty, but they don't want to do that. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
