VERIFY PROPER PLUG IS REMOVED FOR LEVEL CHECK.
- Removal of the reduction gear brake band bolt can cause total loss of drive or a substantial reduction in the performance of the transmission.
- Removal of the parking pawl rod plate retaining bolt (located next to the XYZ switch) will result in problems/gear lever movement restrictions.
- Raise and support the vehicle.
- Connect the approved Jaguar diagnostic system.
- Make sure J-Gate shift selector is in the Park position (P).
- With the engine running and the foot brake applied, move the J-Gate shift selector through "P-R-N-D-4-3-2" and back to the "P" position to circulate the automatic transmission fluid until the temperature reaches 30 to 40°C (86 to 104°F) on the approved Jaguar diagnostic system.
- When the automatic transmission fluid temperature reaches 35°C (95°F) check that the selector lever is in the "P. position raise the vehicle.
Because of the similarity to other plugs and fasteners on the transmission, the potential for loosening an incorrect fastener, instead of the level plug, exists. There is a risk for internal transmission damage if the improper fastener is removed.
