Hi all,
I'm in the market for a newer XJ, and I'm interested in a local 2001 model that has some problem with the 4X4 transfer case. It's a 4.0, AW4, 4 door, and when I took it for a test drive, there was some vibration and noise coming from the transmission tunnel.
The transmission seemed to change gears smoothly, when under hard and light acceleration.
From memory, it had the 2H / 4H / N / 4L configuration, so does that make it an NP231 ?
In any event, the current owner admitted that the problem/noises were intermittent, but that it needed to be replaced.
In light of that, I was wondering what $$ I'm looking at for a refurbished one installed. (Unfortunately, I just don't think that I have the mechanical aptitude or tools to take on a job like that).
Also, how long would it be off the road for to get it fixed (I plan on using it as a daily driver).
Thanks in advance.
