Shift Programs

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Jaguar XJR, 2002 Jaguar XJR, and 2001 Jaguar XJR. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Upon encountering the following conditions, the TCM will automatically modify the Normal or Sports shift map to enhance the operation of the vehicle:

  1. Traction: When traction intervention is active.
  2. Hot mode: Extreme engine/transmission temperatures.
  3. Gradient: Under specific speeds and loads.
  4. Manual: Driver initiated override of the normal shift map when the LH side of the "J" gate is used.
