Problem overview

Some Jaguar S-Type owners report experiencing oil pan gasket leaks, which can lead to reduced engine performance, oil contamination, and potential engine damage if not addressed promptly. These leaks are often indicated by visible oil underneath the vehicle, signaling a need for immediate attention. Additionally, some owners encounter transmission pan leaks that can compromise drivability and lead to transmission issues if not resolved quickly. Replacing the transmission pan gasket, filter assembly, and fluid may help with minor leaks. It is crucial for owners to have a professional mechanic inspect and repair both the oil pan gasket and transmission pan leaks to ensure proper resolution. Furthermore, overfilling the oil pan can exacerbate gasket leaks, highlighting the importance of maintaining correct oil levels. Neglecting these issues can result in further damage and compromise the vehicle's overall performance and reliability.
