Even reverse. The motor starts and runs fine just the transmission isnt pulling or engaging. I wasnt able to get the JTIM or whatever its called to work on my computer. I think i could do the repair myself if i had the instructions on removal of the transmission. Any thoughts on what i might have done? Any help with that or the removal process would be appreciated.

So i had my Jag towed to a shop anyway and they said it wasn't the clutch, pressure plate or throw-out bearing.. it is in the transfer case. does anyone know if or how they could know that? also i am thinking if that is correct, i will def try to replace it myself. i am having trouble finding a price on a new or rebuilt or just a used TC. Can anyone help with either problem? Thanks

There are threads on here about replacing a faulty transfer case but it is not a job for the faint hearted, and is not cheap - so it depends on the value of your car, and the cost and time to do this..

I dropped the transfer case on my automatic last month, took about 4 hours and the manual trans should take about the same time. Send me a pm and I'll send you the Jaguar TSB that explains how to do it.

Used transfer cases are on E-bay for around $600.
