what does it mean when the hi transmission tempture light come on in a 1999 jaguar xj8
What year? If you own a 1998 or newer Jaguar there is none.
There isn't one. The transmission has to be drained and filled from underneath.
you don't have to check, top off, or change transmission fluid on a Jaguar. Their transmissions are manufactured "oiled for life".
If the car is not banging and grinding it could be a wiring electrical problem or a bad Solenoid which is also electrical, but more extensive repair. The transmission is most likely not junk, but expect to spend a good amount of money to get it fixed. I am having this problem in my 2000 XK8 coupe which has the same engine and transmission.
The 2003 Jaguar S Type does not have a transmission dipstick. These vehicles were manufactured in a manner that the transmission fluid levels can only be checked by professional service technicians.
