 Faulty transmission.....the vehicle will not engage in drive. each time the vehicle comes to a stop the vehicle will dhift into neutral. you will then have to turn the vehicle off and back on to go forward. but when the vehicle comes to stop the vehicle shifts out of gear again. a new trans is needed due to the 3rd and 4th gears no engaging. the vehicle is less than five years old, although it has over 140k miles. this seems to be a reoccuring theme with the xf model. this vehicle has always been serviced at a jaguar dealer and for the vehicle to require a new transmission is very saddening. how does a luxury brand fail so much with the powertrain.

 Began noticing a small whine in the differential, more obvious at low speed. level of noise increased rapidly. called dealer for an appointment 10/22/12 saw them that day and they verified the problem. called jaguar for authorization. notified by jaguar on 10/23/12 full authorization to replace the entire differential. dealer advises an anticipated two day delivery time for replacement. note: completely satisfied that the dealer was helpful in such rapid authorization and turn around of replacement parts.my understanding is that usually a diff. fluid analysis and other remedies are suggested prior to a major component replacement. i anticipate receiving the car back friday the 26th, or the following monday. they also notified me of a tail light recall which had not been done, which i had not been advised of by jaguar. *tr

 The transmission locked into neutral and could not be moved into any other gear. an internet search will show that this happens often with the 2009 jaguar xf.

 On the night of july 2nd. 2011, i stopped my 2009 jaguar xf in a parking lot. i was unable to turn the gear dial selector from s (sports) and noticed a warning which said gearbox fault. i turned off the engine and applied the parking brake. i was unable to restart the car as the transmission was still engaged. i was unable to use the internet on my cell phone but called a friend who googled the problem and told me to wait a while. i did this and was able to operate the gear selector dial and continue the 30 miles to my home. on parking at my home the same thing happened and i was unable to disengage the transmission selector dial. on exiting the car a warning sign indicated that the transmission was still engaged. i turned off the engine and waited and was again able to disengage the transmission. i believe this is a very serious safety issue and could have significant consequences if the transmission got stuck in reverse when in a busy parking lot or on a busy road. i have had other problems related to power drainage on this vehicle which rendered it unable to be opened or start. i no longer trust this car until the item is fixed and since this is a july 4th weekend my alternate transportation options are limited. this transmission failure is serious in my opinion.

 I leased a new 2009 jaguar xf on 3/17/08. the car had one noticeable serious design defect that will certainly kill someone eventually. i reported it to the dealer, sale, service, and regional jaguar. the car has the new paddle shifting levers behind the steering wheel at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions. it is nearly impossible to drive the car without accidentally hitting the paddles -sometimes at inopportune moments, sometimes at high speed. *tr
