Okay so i'm not taking credit for this i just think its in the best interest for everyone who owns an XJ to know this. I have always disliked the way my XJ shifts from 2-3-4. It felts sloppy and had trouble down shifting on steep inclines. Well here is the solution that worked for me! It costs all of $0 and about 5 minutes including the test drive.
Here are the instruction
-Open hood while vehicle is off in park.
-Find TB
-Press and hold cable release button.
-While holding cable release button push conduit into ratcheting cable release button.
-Hold conduit in.
-Release the cable release button.
-Open TB to wide open and the button will automatically ratchet and lock into the correct place.
-Test drive!!!

I know its a "write up" but i think it would have more use to people on the tech section

Hey guys I was just reading this and was wondering if this would help me in that it seems somtimes I have to let off the gas for it to shift from 3rd and overdrive and if I don't it seems like the rpms are a little higer than normal when it shifts if I don't let off the gas
