I have a 2013 XF 3.0 AWD and it has been leaking coolant. I'm planning to replace everything plastic, but the rear heater crossover pipe is on indefinite backorder at Jaguar, with no ETA, same with Land Rover. I see the part number for the 3.0 is AJ814053 and that's out of stock at Rockauto for the aftermarket version.

However, there is one in stock that appears for be for the 5.0 only in the XF, but is also listed for the F Type 3.0. Part number is AJ814007. Does anyone know what the difference is between the 3.0 and 5.0 version and will AJ814007 work on my XF?

 

See if the new URO metal replacements are available.

 

The Uro replacements are plastic. The front Y pipe is available in metal, but not the rear.

In any case, the Uro plastic seems to be out of stock at places that have reasonable shipping. I refuse to pay $219 shipping on Ebay.

 

i made some YouTube videos on how to install the cooling pipes ,but the channel is down trying to recover the videos ,so i started a new channel ,ive done a few F-TYPES AND XFs with the metal pipes and the heater manifolds , until i get my videos back for now im doing another F-TYPE and ill make another VIDEO for you guys ,you just need the right tools

 

Thanks Dennis, I have been wondering for a long time if that rear heater manifold was the same or different on V6 vs V8, and now I know they are different!
I just checked mine (V6 F-Type) and yes each end where it is mounted has three bolts not two like the V8 version, and of course the V6 version has longer extensions to account for the shorter V6 SC body.

 

Thanks for the photos, that makes it very clear!

 

Useful info.

 

No problem, to all Xf xj And F-type owners, I would replace this part immediately, if you do it yourself it's free plus parts ,at the Dealer $800 ,this will destroy your engine, I've been doing at least 3 subscribers per month for peace of mind,then I replace the plastic pipes with metal ones

 

SIde question Dennis, where did you get that spoiler, very unique...

 

I got it from EBAY easy install here's my video how to

 

Can you please list all your metal pipes and your other components (ie, yellow supercharger spindle, etc) that you switched out in your white XF-S to bullet proof the engine. I’d like to do the same thing to my newly purchased 2013 XFR 5.0 L.
Did you also change your upper and lower pulleys on your SC? If so, please also provide these parts. Did you upgrade the belts too?

Thank you!

 

My mods are Hp Transmission tune VelocityAP upper and lower pulley my Draggy best is 0 to 60 to 3.6 on a V6 SC Aj126 engine, here's some videos for parts and install ,drove to Ohio 1300 miles and a additional 600 miles so the pipes and solid coupler are a dream to have knowing I can go anywhere without any worries
here's my videos


I'll be making another video for a better parts list with reputable companies, I've advised everyone when receiving your front pipes to get Jaguar Oem O,rings for better fitment, all the F-types and Xjs I've done I do the same procedure factory O,rings ,when you get the rear metal pipes check the passage ways, Save some time out your day to watch the videos from beginning to end so you don't miss any tips
