Hi,

my xf 2008 VIN (vehicule identification number) woten at the bootom of the windshield is considered as invalid at online and real life spare parts dealers.
Is it a common "old" jaguar issue ?

mine is from south africa

Thank you

There are different VIN protocols in use around the world. Not all VIN decoders are loaded to decipher all VINs. For example, a parts vendor in North America may have their system loaded to decipher only the North American VIN system.
