Well the transmission started to jerk a few days after we got the car. I was told there was no fixing the problem, that it was an ongoing problem that Jaguar knew about. Have to upgrade the transmission and that would cost about 4000.00 dollars.
I also discovered that the cooling system is leaking - found spot in driveway and investigated it. I thought this was the car of my dreams, but now I am regretting buying it.
Do not get me wrong, everyone who has seen the car thought it was the best thing that they have ever seen... If they only knew.
Well, what can I say the car is beautiful. However, mysteriously enough our S-type also jerks. We have tuned it up and serviced everything that the repair shop can think of to the tune of $1500. And still the problem exists. People are afraid to ride with us because they think the car will break down. How embarrassing to have a luxury car that no one will ride in.
Your car has a vacuum leak in between the lower intake and the motor. There's a hose that deteriorates and leaks. Expect to pay $1000. Sorry you already paid for a tune-up, most of that work will have to be redone.
