The s type auto box is a ''sealed for life unit'' and has no dipstick or top up facility.

SOURCE: How do I top up the transmission fluid on an S

Hi, to check the fluid, first raise the car and level. On the rear of the trans next to the driveshaft there is a hex plug (5/16" allen head). Remove the plug when the transmission is warm and running in park. Fill the trans with Mercon V until it runs out, then re-install the plug. On my 2002 s type it has the instructions imprinted in the rear of the trans next to the fill port.

Where do I add transmission fluid

If it's an automatic then there should be a transmission dipstick that you add through there, if not then find the transmission and their should be a filler cap on the top of it as most newer cars no longer have a dipstick. If it's a manual you have to crawl beneath the car and look at the transmission there will be a fillter plug on the side of the transmission.

How do i fill my transmission fluid in a a 99 jaguar xj8

There is no fill tube on either the 5HP24 (1996-2002) or 6HP26 (2003-2006) transmissions. They are both "sealed for death". By changing your transmission fluid you will prolong the life of the transmission. Jaguar only offered a 50,000 mile warranty, so they stand to benefit if your transmission conks out at 90,000 miles. The car has to be up on a lift (or at least on 4 tall jack stands) to check the fluid level or to add more fluid. Plus, the engine has to be running. You check the fluid level from the fill plug, and the plug is right next to the exhaust pipe which gets very hot. If you turn off the engine during the procedure, about 5 liters of fluid will drain out of the fill plug. Here's a video which shows the process for changing the fluid and pan on a 2003 transmission. The procedure is essentially the same for the 2002 and earlier cars, but there are some slight differences in the transmission internally.

Gearbox fault message on dash shows up on ny 2003 jaguar x type why?

Ok, so if your lucky you need to just have the fluid in your transmission. (if it's a manual anyway) If you want to give a shot at fixing it yourself. Go buy some lucas trans conditioner, cleaner or similar product, 7 quarts dex III mercon. Put the cleaner (transmission additive to dissolve sticky old trans fluid from parts) Run it for about a 100 - 300 miles, pull the drain plug on the bottom of the transmission, let it fully drain, then put the 7 quarts of fluid you bought earlier in. The light basically means that you are low on fluid or that a solenoid is sticking maybe. Since this is a manual gearbox there isn't any dipstick to check the fluid.check your manual for the suggested millage that you should service the gearbox. I would say 50k - 75k would be a safe bet unless you notice it has been leaking fluid, or that there is always a drop or two. Then it might lose enough to be low sooner then that. Don't just try to add fluid as there isn't anyway to tell if you overfilled it and that will do nothing to improve it's performance only add stress to the seals.
Sry about the delay on the answer, hope it helps.

2002 x type .. is it possible to OVER fill the transmission fluid..if so will it cause the transmission to not move in reverse?

02-06 Jaguar X-types should all have a sealed transmission which cannot have fluid added to them but by the transmission shop. My wife's 02 x-type had the tranny go out completely at about 80K. Cost us $3500 and our transmission guy said it was a very common problem/manufacturing defect.
If it doesn't go into reverse odds are the transmission is on its way out. Good luck!

My 2002 x-type jaguar is pausing for a long time before engaging to go forward. Reverse works fine

Check you fluid level in the Transmission.
I have had some luck using the Lucas brand of transmission fix it lube on some Ford transmissions. It helped squeeze another couple of years use out of the car.

Good luck
