    GEAR Selector on Jaguar
    Hello! I have a Jaguar Sovereign (xj6 type)1995,4.0 litre model.
    Increasingly,when I start up I attempt to move the gear selector into `drive`but it sticks and will not select.Eventually it usually does engage but after 20 minutes this morning!
    I recently had the transmission oil changed to see if that would do the trick but to no avail.
    I touch the brake pedal before engaging as per the owners manual but this doesn`t seem to make much differerence.
    I would be extremely grateful for any suggestions! Alan M.

    . See if your car has a Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) that needs replacing.

    . Read the link below, even though it's geared for Hondas. It may give you an idea:
