Hi everyone,
Hope you can help me with that confusion.
I'm looking for a Front Lower control arm for the 2013 Jaguar 3.0 AWD (VIN SAJAJ06B4D8S83098). The car is in Ukraine. I'm in Los Angeles, CA, and trying to find the right part. According to the catalog I need C2Z 21487 and C2Z21488 but it doesn't look like the right part because the one that we took of from the car looks completely different. The part number on it is DX233C255AB and I can't find it anywhere. I'm afraid if I buy C2Z 21487 it is just simply not going to fit and I'll waste money and time.
Does anyone know if these parts are interchangeable or maybe it's just a different suspension for the different markets?
Searching everything I can but can't find any decent information. Thank you so much in advance for your help.

 

Welcome to the forums serggey_d,

Only because 95 members have viewed your post but not replied and I'm a persistent kind of person, I ignored the fact that VIN decoders didn't tell me which MODEL this is so I looked up the Parts Numbers.

JEPC shows the parts numbers you listed are for the left and right lower front wishbone arms on an XF 3.0 AWD:




I agree the illustration looks nothing like the one in your photo. However, the same illustration is used in the parts catalogue for 2WD and AWD which are obviously different designs because they have completely different part numbers. It's likely JLR have been lazy and not done separate drawings for 2WD and AWD variants.

The problem is that if I'm using the catalog number I'm getting completely different parts than I have. On my part, I have the number DX233C255AB and sometimes when I search for that I'm getting C2Z 21487/C2Z21488 next to it. C2Z 21487 doesn't fit - it's a different design for RWD I guess. There is lot's of them on ebay.
I'm just trying to find out where I can buy DX233C255AB or maybe there is another part number for that part. Or maybe I can find a diagram of my suspension at least. It's not there as well. The one that you listed above, unfortunately, in reality, doesn't look like mine.
Most of the diagrams are from the US market and that's why vin number search doesn't show up anything until I ran It on the euro catalog.

 

Your VIN SAJAJ06B4D8S83098 decodes as:




This confirms the vehicle Model Year, Engine and Transmission so I'd go with the Part Numbers shown in JEPC.

The number DX233C255AB will be a manufacturer's casting reference. It is not a Jaguar part number. JLR source most of their suspension parts from LEMFÖRDER. Do a search on their catalogue and you are likely to find their casting reference and the equivalent JLR Part Number.

I found one more part that looks close to mine. Want to hear your opinion guys.
Seller saying its Part Number: ZN55J4 made by Lemfoerder

For me, it looks similar.
If it's the right part what about other parts? Does the lower control arm go with its fine C2Z21489?

 

Check the LEMFÖRDER catalogue:

I checked it and it looks like they copied Jaguar mistake to their catalog. Jaguar saying that suspension parts for AWD and RWD are the same. When in reality they are different.
