2000 Jaguar S-Type V8 Saloon review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Box is slipping a little.
Replaced suspension bushes.
General comments?
Dec. 2000, V8, beautiful, in immaculate condition.
Worried about the automatic box that is slipping the odd time. When it catches it is sharp. I noticed there was a replacement box fitted when I was replacing the lower shock bushes. An alloy plate on the transmission says so. 109000 miles now. Two boxes sound familiar. Maybe I should have bought the 540 I was looking at before.
My Jaguar dealer couldn't wait to check for recall work when I was buying those bushes. At least I didn't buy it new.
I feel gutted for the guys who lost so much on theirs. If you are reading these posts for the time, you have been suitably warned.
