Hello. If your coolant overflow tank is steaming and overflowing, then that means the vehicle is running hotter than normal, and may even be overheating. The vehicle will need to be inspected for possible overheating issues (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/car-is-overheating-inspection) and any repairs...
The codes all reference engine misfires. Continued misfires can cause the catalyst to fail and block the exhaust. The past diagnosis you had that the coils could be bad was correct. The coils (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/ignition-coil-replacement) and plugs should be replaced (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/spark-plugs-replacement)...

Hi Paper T. Thanks for contacting us tonight. This type of transmission problem is commonly due to inner seal damage or other internal component failure. Unless you're ready to replace the transmission or able to completely rebuild, you might want...
Hi Bo. Jaguars typically have this problem, which tends to be caused by one of two things. First, it's common for an internal transmission sensor failure to trigger this warning light and the shifting issue. A second issue is due...
The Jaguar X-Type transfer case fits all models from 2002 through 2008. If you need further assistance with your transfer case swap, then seek out a professional, such as one from Your Mechanic, to help you.

Hi there. Sounds like the transmission is slipping or a part is broken causing the vehicle to not drive. First check the fluid in the transmission and see if it's low. If the fluid is full and red in color,...
Hi there. On the bottom of your transfer case, there should be a large hex plug. You will need a special hex tool like a large allen wrench to remove the plug. Put a drain pan under the plug and...

Washing an engine is a risky business. If you're going to have it done, it's best performed by a technician who will know where NOT to direct the spray. Now that it has been done, you could have a failure...
Stop leak in the cooling system is likely to cause more problems than it will solve. Modern cooling systems are much more finely drawn and have far smaller passages than older cars, and stop leak will jam things up. I...
