Greetings!
Here with more tales of woe....
On the motorway, foot down to overtake, revs shoot up, car has no pick up.
Turn the music down to hear a whirring/buzzing sound.
I lose the top gear - a few miles down the road, I lose third.
The car now has 1&2 and reverse (is getting harder to engage)
I've had a couple of people tell me it's the clutch plates heating and sticking hence the gradual loss of gears.
I haven't had a clutch go on an automatic before - nor on a jag - and it gets confusing with the "dual mass flywheel" to work out whats wrong and what needs replacing - obv needs to go into a garage to get it checked out.
Any idea's where's a good place to source the parts?
Is it a simple job for a good mechanic to do - not needing a jag specialist?
Any feedback greatly appreciated, especially if you've had the clutch go on your automatic.
