I hope someone can help on this issue. My drive selector will not come up at times and I have to shift while it is down. The dealer wants to charge 1400.00 for a new one. I found one on Ebay (used) that came off a 2011 XF. It arrived in very good condition and I hope it will work. My question is this. My Jag is a 4.2L and this drive selector obviously came off a 5.0 because it has "Dynamic Mode" characterized by a checkered flag. Will it still work on a 4.2L?

 

Yes, the 5.0 selector will work on a 4.2. I had the same issue on my 2009 XF which was a 4.2. I am not sure what else needs to be done for the installation, any kind of programming.

Dynamic mode will not work however. If you select it, the system will tell you "special modes not available".

 

These have to be programmed to the vehicle - have never used one from 4.2L to 5.0L though.
The buttons will be different, and connectors and pin locations for certain features may be different between 4.2L and 5.0L variants.


I'd proceed with caution....
