Default Reliable Jaguar Service: Columbus, OH??

I am the proud owner of a 2002* XKR paperweight due to "Tranny" problems.

I am "dissatisfied" with the results from the local Jag dealer, Byer's Imports. The tranny specialist they referred me to kept trying to tell me I had a Ford tranny and it was probably toast. NOT so fast, Cowboy.

Can anyone recommend a GOOD, independent mechanic within 100 miles of the Columbus, OH area. Someone who will check for relatively minor electrical problems before recommending a tranny transplant.

*year irrelevant for this query.

Thanx, Mike

Contact member Lothar52. He is an avid Jaguar owner, lives in Columbus, OH and an all around "nice guy".

He may be able to help. It's worth a try.

OSU Medical Center or Riverside could get you a tranny transplant... Don't know about getting your car fixed though. :-)

This is almost within your 100 mile radius. There is a good independent shop in Parma (Cleveland suburb). I've used them for my Land Rover and my Jaguars.

708 Walter Avenue
Parma, Ohio 44134
(216) 749-7687 Office
