What is the model number of the Jaguar XJL transmission fluid?
1 Answers
Jaguar transmission fluid model is JDE26444. Function of transmission fluid: Transmission fluid is an oil product used to keep the gear system clean, providing lubrication to extend the life of the transmission components. It offers effective lubrication even at low temperatures and reduces oil loss under harsh operating conditions. Types of transmission fluid: Depending on the transmission structure, transmission fluid is categorized into automatic transmission fluid (ATF) and manual transmission fluid. ATF is specifically designed for automatic transmissions, serving as the hydraulic fluid for the torque converter, the lubricant for the planetary gear set, and the hydraulic oil for the shifting mechanism. Under normal driving conditions, ATF should be replaced every 120,000 kilometers, or every 60,000 kilometers under severe driving conditions. Manual transmission fluid, commonly referred to as gear oil, is classified by the American Petroleum Institute (API) into five grades (GL-1 to GL-5) based on quality. GL-1 to GL-3 are for lower performance requirements, used for lubricating standard and bevel gears, as well as gears in transmissions and steering systems. Manual transmission gear oil should generally be replaced every 2 years or 60,000 kilometers under normal driving conditions.
