I bought my jag 2002 X-type used with 38,000 on it. But after a years ownership on 2/10/10 with about 50,000 on it while driving I experienced an engine deceleration and an error message came on the dashboard saying gearbox failure pulled over to the side of the road out of the way of traffic switched off car and put it back on put in drive but could not go over 30mph took it to Jaguar for a diagnostic was told needed transmission,fuel pump. And oilpan gasket cost almost 10,000 doll. Too expensive for me then took the car to the local CO they replace trans and everything on the diagnostic done by Jaguar for 118. 00. Get my car back after 2 mths driving car and same thing happens again a week after trans replacement gear box failure take it back after another month am told I have an electrical prob after 52,000 spent on parts and labor my car is still in the shop . I see that there are many X-type owners out there with the same prob Jaguar needs to come clean and step up to take responsability for this trans prob I am sure like me we all love our cars but not enough to keep spending thousands of dollars on a prob that cant be fixed!!!!!!.
I purchased my 2002 Jaguar X-type in April 2002 new. It had surges, and stalls. I asked the service dept to add remarks, it once stopped in the highway right in front of a semi truck, with no warning. This was very shortly after I purchased the vehicle. Since I cashed in my company 401k and paid cash for the car, I kept trying to drive it and deal with the problems, and it has had very many. Now at just over 59,000 miles I have been told it needs a new transmission, water pump, vacuum leaks on the engine, and so on. The estimate for repairs is approximately the car's total blue book value. Again, just as I pulled out into traffic, gearbox fault error came on, and the car would barely crawl out of the way of incoming cars. Is there anything you can do to assist? based on numerous searches, Jaguar should have recalled this vehicle. It has a terrible safety history. I am a single parent with a son in college and now face adding to our home mortgage just to repair the car. I would take full responsibility for making an unwise purchase, however, Jaguar knows fully this vehicle is extremely defective. Thank you very much vehicle currently located at leith inc. 700 autopark blvd cary, nc 27511 919 469-2699.
Jaguar x type tranny failing. . . How long before it fails in front of a tractor trailer ??.
My car is a 2002 Jaguar X-type. My transmission went completely out Friday morning. Luckily, I was able to move it to the side of the road without being injured. My car only has 60,589 miles on it?! what cars transmission gives out at such low mileage? not forgetting the expense to replace it. The economy right now is not the best and 1 car for two working individuals is not an option. . . Can you help us? I want Jaguar to pay this. I did not purchase an extended warranty because with all my other cars I have never needed to. I take good care of my cars with oil changes, fluids topped off, new brakes and tires when needed??!! Jaguar wants to charge me $7,100 to replace this. I found a mechanic to put a used one in with 43,000 miles on it for half that but what guarantees do I have that one will not give out? this is supposed to be a luxury car???? thanks for your time and I look forward to hearing from you.
I just bought a 2002 Jaguar X-type from the woodbridge auto auction in virginia two days ago. The transmission is giving me problems and needs to be replaced. I looked on-line for consumer complaints regarding the Jaguar's transmission and there are plenty. Jaguar should recall these cars and replace the transmissions. The japanese manufacturer currently making the transmissions for Jaguar are making unsafe transmissions. Its time for Jaguar to take responsibility for their product and recall these calls and replace these transmissions.

I would like to post a similar complaint to notify other consumers who owns a Jaguar X-type 2002. In August 29 2007, on my way to work the car wouldn't accelerate more that 30 miles per hour. I drove back home and I had the car towed to the nearest Jaguar dealership. I had to replace the transmission for a cost of $5,400 with 59,000 miles. The first 4 years, I made several visits to the dealer to fix an engine light problem, fuel leak, reported a squeaky sound coming from the brakes (@ 10,000 miles Jaguar told me I needed new brakes pads for a cost $1,200,). The radio speakers stopped working and I was told it was normal wear and tear and it will cost me $ 900 to fix it.

Automatic transmission began dropping gears, beginning with top gear, working its way down till the transmission would no longer pull the vehicle. After the first gear dropped, "gearbox fault" came up in the driver information display. After researching this matter, it appears that Jaguar has a serious defect with these transmissions, as most X-type transmissions fail at 50,000 miles. Jaguar (corporate) refused to reply to both verbal and written inquiries. Total cost new was $7,700 for replacement, rebuilt was $2,900. Jaguar obviously knows of the defect, as it was covered in their TSB's.
When crossing a highway intersection the vehicle engaged into limpmode which caused the electrical system to shut down, and vehicle decelerated to 5 mph.
Have experienced several occurrences of power train shutdown to do electronices on 2002 Jaguar x type VIN # sajea510d22xc72128. . . This occurs in moving traffic at all speeds. Represents a serious safety issue. I have asked Jaguar motor CO to replace the vehicle. . . They claims it has been repaired. Not the case as the malfunction has occurred several times which resulted in main harness & ecu replaced. . .
On four separate occasions in the last five months, the car lost power and the "power train" warning light on the dash display came on. It appears to be related to the cruise control, since the failures occurred when engaging or re-engaging (after applying the brake or pressing on the accelerator) the cruise control. The failures seem to occur randomly and not every time the cruise control is used. The dealer has been unable to replicate the problem, but they have replaced the control computer and re-done a number of wiring harnesses. Even though the problem has not been replicated, the failure history is captured in the car's on-board computer.
On 2 separate occasions, the consumer was unable to take the vehicle out of the park gear. The dealership replaced a switch when the problem first occurred. Also at 26,000 while driving all gauges on the dashboard suddenly went to zero. The dealership was unable to determined the cause of the problem.
