You maybe interested to know that my problem was diagnosed as needing something called a mechatronic(?). Been in the garage for a month partly because a new torque converter has been lost by the courier company. Expensive job. Not good for a car with only 56k on the clock!!

I recently had the diff replaced on my 54 reg 2.7 S type diesel sport purchased second hand in March this year. It was replaced with a secondhand like for like unit. After picking up the car about 5 mins down the road, a warning light came up stating that there was a gearbox fault. There is no real problem in the operation of the box when driving and the warning was not there before I took the car in. I took to a Jag garage who connected it up to find the fault codes. I don't know what they were but they said it could be a problem with the box itself or with the ECU. It is to be investigated further this week.
I am not much of a techie and new to Jag ownership so I wonder if anyone has any comments to offer on the problem. It just seems a coincidence that the warning started after the work on the diff!

Definitely the diff. Had the same on my 2.7 diesel sport at 54000 miles! Jaguar no longer supply just the diff so had a secondhand one fitted. Trouble was they fitted a diff for the petrol version and I ended up with a serious gearbox problem. Beware!
