I have a 2002 X type (2 litre. done 44000 miles), dash showed gear box problem, (red circle light up). I pulled out and turned the engine off. 5 minutes later turned the engine on. The engine running but the car would not drive either in drive or reverse. Turned the engine off again and on the car driving but not much power. The care is taken to the Jag. dealer and told is misfiring + some gear box faults. Suggesting to change some coils and see (cost about £200+). also possible need to change the gear box costing about £2500+. Please advice. Shall I go ahead with the repair? Should I part exchange.

2. Even gears are not locked, transmission works in degradation mode.

You must access the Transmission Control Module (TCM) using diagnostic equipment connected to the data link connector of vehicle, in order to pull out all Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) memored. Then you will know if there are bad piece(s), and you will can replace bad piece(s) & repair damages. After that you will be able to erase all DTC from TCM memory, and reset TCM Electronic Control Unit.

How many miles on your car? Have you hand the transmission fluid drained, flushed and refilled ever 30,000 miles? I have mine done at the dealer and I have them use synthetic fluid, don't want the conventional stuff. I bought mine used and just under 2 weeks afterward the transmission quit pulling the car entirely. Transmission changed under warranty at Jaguar with a rebuilt unit. You DO NOT want a brand new transmission. The factory rebuilts have mods and enhancements that address failures the new ones don't have. You have to admit the thing died to begin with and SOMETHING needs to be tougher inside it. I don't take chances with mine, at $2700 for the rebuilt (minus labor) it's cheaper to have it serviced regularly.
