1998 JAGUAR X308 ABS

Stator, intermediate and output shafts. Three epicyclic geartrains. Six multi-disc clutch/brake packs. Two freewheels (One-way clutches). Hydraulic pump. Parking lock assembly. Electro-hydraulic control unit. Internal harness and 13 pin connector with bayonet lock.
Hydraulic pump
This engine driven pump is located at the front of the transmission casing and provides pressure for the hydraulic
functions.
Supplies fluid under pressure to the torq ue converter, geartrain, electro-hydraulic control unit and the lubrication
circuit.
Draws fluid from the fluid pa n below the transmission casing, through a filter.
Parking lock
This component prevents movement of th e vehicle by engaging a fixed pawl with the parking lock gear located on the
output shaft. The pawl is engaged by movi ng the gear selector lever to the park (P) position.
Electro-hydraulic control unit
This unit, mounted in the transmission lower case, converts signals, mechanical from the J-gate and electrical from the
TCM, into hydraulic functions.
The following components ar e assembled to the unit:
Selector valve. Shift plate. Control valve - modulating pressure. Control valve - shift pressure. Solenoid valve 1 <-> 2 and 4 <-> 5 shift. Solenoid valve 3 <-> 4 shift. Solenoid valve 2 <-> 3 shift. Solenoid valve - converter lock-up. Speed sensors (2). Temperature sensor.
Speed sensors
There are two speed sensors within the transmission assembly which provide input to the TCM. These inputs, when used in
conjunction with CAN data relative to engine speed (from ECM) and road speed (from ABS), are used to electronically
control the transmission.
Temperature sensor
The output from this sensor allows the TCM to compensate for the affect of fluid temperature on shift time and quality
Control Systems
Hydraulic Control
The selector valve is operated directly by the J-gate and directs fluid flow for P R N D.
Of the four solenoid valves, 3 control shifts and 1 controls converter lock-up. One control valve controls modulating pressure
and the other shift pressure.
Regulating valves are used to maintain/control pressure for lu brication, normal operating functions, and the supply to the
control valves and shift valves.

Emergency Running (elect ronic limp-home mode)
The TCM constantly monitors the transmissi on for faults. In the event of a problem the TCM will adopt the limp-home mode, in which the gear currently held remains engaged, until P is selected. The modulati ng and shift pressures will increase to
maximum and converter lock-up will be inhibited.
Following the selection of P , the only ratios available will be 2 (irrespective of forward ratio manual selection) and R .
With the vehicle at rest, the procedure to manually select is as follows:
1. 1. Select P .

10. Switch off the engine.
11. Place more absorbent material around the schrader valve.
12. Where fitted, open the drain valve and allow the fuel from the

D
isconnect the fuel feed hose
at the quick fit connector,
using special tool JD 182.
Conne

8. Drain the fuel tank in accordance with the equipment
manufacturers instructions.

WARNING: NEVER USE A CFC 12 ANALYZ
ER OR NAKED FLAME TYPE.
Leak tests should be carried out with a UV spot lamp or an electronic analyzer which is dedicated to HFC 134A refrigerant.
Handling Lubricati
ng Oil
Av
oid breathing lubricant mist; it can cau
s
e irritation to the respiratory system.
Always use fresh oil from a sealed containe r and do not leave oil exposed to the atmosphere for any reason other than to fill
or empty a system. PAG oil is very hygr oscopic (absorbs water) and will rapidly become contaminated by atmospheric
moisture.

PAG oil is NOT compatible with previously used mineral based oi ls and must NEVER be mixed. Do not re-use oil when it has
been separated from refrigerant, following a re covery cycle. Dispose of used oil safely.
System Maintenance
Plug pipes an
d units immediatel
y after disconnection an d do not remove the plugs until immediately before making the
connection. Do not leave the system open to atmosphere.
The receiver drier must be renewed if the compressor has failed or if it is susp ected that debris may be present in the
system.
It is not always necessary to renew th e receiver drier if the correct procedur es have been followed. However, if a
component or part of the system is left dismantled for more than five minutes, it may be advisable to renew the receiver
drier. This guidance is based on UK average humidity levels; lo cations with lower humidity levels will be less critical to
moisture contamination. It must be stressed however th at there is not a safe period for work to be carried out in.
Do not use any replacement parts su pplied without transit plugs and seals - return them to the supplier.
Diagnostic equipment for pres sure, mass and volume should be calibrated regularly and certified by a third party
organization.
Use extreme care when handling and securi ng aluminum fittings; always use a backing spanner and take special care when
handling the evaporator.
Use only the correct or re commended tools for the job and apply the manufacturer's torque specifications.

ral Procedures
CAUTION: Always decant fresh oil from a sealed container and do not leave oil exposed to the atmosphere. PAG oil is
very hygroscopic (absorbs wate r) and will rapidly attract atmospheric moisture. PAG oil must NEVER be mixed with mineral
based oils. Do not re-use oil following a recovery cycle, dispose of it safely.
Original Compressor

New Compressor
1. The amount of oi
l drawn out during a recovery procedure will
be dependent on the state of the system and the rate of
recovery. The quantity will be a pproximately 30 to 40 ml.; this
may vary, and the figure is given only for guidance.
The oil separator vessel in the recovery equipment must be
clean and empty at the start of the process, so that the quantity
of oil which is drawn out may be accurately measured.
• NOTE: The equipment manufactu rer's instructions must be
followed when adding oil directly into an original, or new unit,
owing to rectification work to the existing compressor, or the
need to fit a new compressor.
Oil may be added to the system either via the recovery, recycle
and recharge station or by us ing a proprietary oil injector.
Alternatively, if the compress or has been removed from the
vehicle, the oil may be added directly to the compressor.
1. From an existing compressor, drain the oil into a measuring
cylinder and record the amount. Fl ush the unit out with fresh oil
and drain thoroughly. Replenish the compressor with the same
amount of oil that was originally drained out and immediately
plug all orifices ready for refitting to the vehicle.
1. Drain and discard th e transit lubricating oil from the new
compressor before it is be fitted.
To avoid over-filling the system, an allowance must be made for
the quantity of oil found in the original compressor and the
quantity deposite d in the recovery equipment oil separator from
the charge recovery operation.
Typical example:
D rained
from original compressor - 50 ml.
R
e
covered from oil separator - 40 ml.
Q
u
antity to be put in new compressor - 50 + 40 = 90 ml.
2. The difference between the combined total quantity of
recovered and drained oil and the nominal capacity of the
system (180 ml.), is due to th e quantity of oil remaining in
components such as the cond enser, receiver drier or
evaporator. This oil is no t normally recoverable.
The same procedure may be followed if a problem has occurred
due to oil leakage, as the amount of oil lost is generally small. If
the recovery process has no t been necessary, because
refrigerant has also been lost, then only the quantity drained
from the original compress or needs to be replaced.
