The XF was developed at Jaguar's Whitley design and development HQ in Whitley, Coventry and was built at Castle Bromwich Assembly facility in Birmingham.. Initially, the XF was planned to use an all aluminium platform but due to time constraints put by Jaguar's board on the development team, the X250 makes use of a heavily modified Ford DEW98 platform.
The XF is an evolution of the original J-Blade design pioneered in the X250 XF, with a largely similar silhouette. Effort was made to build a uniform design language across Jaguar's saloon range. [8] The X260 XF uses 83 percent all-new parts compared with the previous model. [9] The car is 7 millimetres (0.3 inches) shorter than the predecessor.
A transmission control unit (TCU), also known as a transmission control module (TCM), or a gearbox control unit (GCU), is a type of automotive ECU that is used to control electronic automatic transmissions. Similar systems are used in conjunction with various semi-automatic transmissions, purely for clutch automation and actuation.
Jaguar XF may refer to: Jaguar XF (X250) (2007–2015), an executive / luxury mid-size sports saloon car Jaguar XF (X260) (2015–2024), the second generation of the executive/mid-size luxury sports saloon
The 6HP is the first transmission to use this 6-speed gearset concept. The last 6HP automatic transmission was produced by the Saarbrücken plant in March 2014 after 7,050,232 units were produced. [3] [4] The ZF plant in Shanghai continued to produce the 6HP for the Chinese market. [3]
The 5HP is the last transmission family with serial power flow: to provide more gears, components were added. This makes these transmissions larger, heavier and even more expensive to manufacture. As the presence of 10 main components (together with brakes and clutches) in the Ravigneaux gearbox types shows, this meant the end of the ...
In 2003, the X-Type was also offered in front-wheel drive with the introduction of Jaguar's first four-cylinder diesel engines (based on the Ford Duratorq ZSD unit from the Mondeo and Transit), and with the smaller 2.1 litre petrol V6. The six speed automatic transmission supplied on the later 2.2 litre diesel models includes Jaguar Sequential ...
The term gear stick mostly refers to the shift lever of a manual transmission, while in an automatic transmission, a similar lever is known as a gear selector. A gear stick will normally be used to change gear whilst depressing the clutch pedal with the left foot to disengage the engine from the drivetrain and wheels .
