My 2005 XJ8L with about 100,000 miles was diagnosed by 2 different mechanics that I need a new ECM(engine control monitor). The engine sounded like some of the plugs weren't firing. I live in Worcester Massachusetts and had it towed to the nearest Jaguar dealership. I spent almost $2000 on a new ECM at the dealership but car still sounds the same. It does not produce enough power and I cannot drive the car. Needs help

Welcome again to the forum Koranco,
I can see you've already posted this same question in the X350 tech forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.
There must have been specific DTC's (Diagnostic Trouble Codes) that led the dealership to believe the ECM was faulty. You should add any further details that you have available.
