[xk8] Stunting on pull away

HI

I have a 2003 XKR and in low gear and reverse it shunts when
pulling away.

Any ideas?

Someone mentioned to change the engine mounts?–

What do you mean by ‘‘shunts’’? Cheers–

It could be a fluid level problem. Any sign of leaks? The
hoses from the transmission to the cooler can chafe.
Checking the level itself is not so easy unfortunately as
you need the engine running and need to fill it quickly
before it reaches about 50 degrees. To make life more
difficult the exhaust is in the way of the filler plug.
