Hi i have v6 TD Jag S Type and it has a sqeek on the automatic gear box, i've heard there's some gear box oil you can buy that will sort that out?

Also sometimes it won't come out of Park, i have to press the clutch a few times before the gear stick is able to move?

Any help would be great thanks

 

squeak, won't let me edit post.

 

If you've got an auto gearbox, why does the car also have a clutch pedal?

 

I mean the brake peddle, use to Manual's.

 

The squeak, squawk or hoot sound is usually fixed by using the present iteration of transmission fluid that contains an additive that the original factory fill did not have.

Why you've got to press on the brake pedal more than once might be something to do with the switch.

 

Can you tell me what the present iteration of transmission fluid is? Good thinking about switch thanks.

 

The ZF LIFEGUARD 6 has the additive. The Jaguar fluid C2C 8432 also has the additive but I suspect it is the same fluid at an inflated price.

All the TSBs from the past when Jaguar discovered the issue are on this forum as well as Gus's site.
