Buongiorno, possiedo da poco una xj6 II serie di provenienza estera. Tra poco mi chiameranno per il collaudo in motorizzazione. Visto che le lenti della retromarcia non sono marchiate con la E seguita da numeri ma con altre sigle, possono farmi ritornare indietro per questo? questa sotto č una lente nuova ma anche lei č prima della E come invece presente su quasi tutti i gruppi ottici! Grazie
I recently purchased an XJ6 Series II of foreign origin. Soon they will call me for vehicle testing. Since the reversing lenses are not "E" marked but have other coding, can they make me come back for this? This below is a new lens but it is also before the "E" marking present on almost all the lighting parts! Thank you
Welcome to the forum sasanero,
The XJ6 Series II was manufactured before the European "E" marking system for vehicle lighting was introduced. I would be surprised if your XJ6 failed the vehicle test but have asked one of our Italian members to respond to your question.
welcome Sasanero!
I think nobody will ever see if the lenses of the reversing lights have the "E" so I think you are creating a useless anxiety.
Besides, I understand (I do not know well this model of Jaguar) that as a standard this car did not have it therefore you were also meticulous to insert them.
in my opinion nobody will make problems. I go to the review of my Harley Davidson every 2 years and I have both headlights homologated only for the American market (without "E") and no one has ever noticed.
Grazie per le risposte. Leggo con piacere che mi sto preoccupando inutilmente, non tanto per il fatto che nessuno lo vedrŕ mai, mi č successo giŕ con una mercedes sl 107 del 1985. Il collaudo č un Po diverso dalla semplice revisione biennale, per il solo fatto che il primo si effettua alla motorizzazione la seconda in officina autorizzata. Ritornando alla Jaguar del 1978, da quale anno č entrata in vigore la legge sulle norme europee? Dove tutti i proiettori devono avere le omologazioni? Grazie
...... Returning to the 1978 Jaguar, from which year did the law on European standards come into force? Where all the projectors must have the approvals? Thank you
The relevant standard is ECE Regulation 37 which was adopted by the UK on 21st August 1984. Vehicle components manufactured prior to this date do not carry the E11 mark.
