New to the forum and looking for advice.

My 02 XJS has developed a slight shudder. It's more predominant at mid speeds (30-50mph). The dealership ran the codes today and said the TC was faulty and would need to replace entire trany... $8000+

I said your insane and got on here haha. I love this car and am fairly handy w a wrench so I intend to repair it myself.

I plan to re-pull the codes myself, if my buddies reader contains the correct software, so that I know exactly what it's showing.

Has anyone else experienced this w the xjs/xj8's? I don't think the trans needs to be rebuilt, it shift perfectly. So I'm planning to replace the TC only at this time. Thoughts?


Thank you for reading, I'll post codes asap

 

I should have corrected it, but I realize that an XJS and an XJ Sport are two different cars. Sorry for the mistake.
