Welcome to the forum markbro99xj8,

I've moved your question from General Tech Help to X308 forum. Members here with the same model will be able to help.

Please follow this link New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the New Member Area - Intro a MUST forum and post some info about yourself and your vehicle for all members to see. In return you'll get a proper welcome and some useful advice about posting to the forum.

two different engines came within those years. AJ26 and AJ27. they are similar in shape but have major electronic and internal mechanical differences. Recommend that you get the AJ27 engine.
