has the level got low, been filled, and now it doesn't work! [thinking trans fluid cavitation.]
has it been flushed and had filters replaced anytime recently!

Get yourself a tyre tread gauge for before/ after son driving the car tyre tread measurement. Correctly identify the gearbox then look for commonproblems. e.g ZF 4HP24
Then to XJ40 section.To see all the posts and search you need to log in.Just create a user profile and you are away.The most common cause of this appears to be an electrical problem that is easily fixed if I remember correctly.There is a wealth of info on the site and if you do a search (once logged in) you are bound to find it.
