I have a small coolant leak but I'm having trouble identifying the correct part in the diagram. 2013 XF 3.0 AWD. What's the correct part for the one I've circled in red? It looks like I may need to buy from the red circle back to the coolant overflow but none of the parts look exactly right in the diagram. Thanks for your help!
Any Jaguar parts place can find it?
Have you tried an online dealer? Remember the last 6 digits of your VIN is needed to make sure the parts are correct. Jaguar Factory Parts
But I wanted to comment that you have the very failure prone "fat" seam plastic cooling pipes?
So you might want to combine a few repairs while your in that area?
The two large diameter plastic pipes up front are now out in Lifetime Aluminum. A very good upgrade too. Have you replaced the water pump yet?
Can you do your own repairs? It will be MUCH cheaper if you can.

BlckCat, I don't know if I should Shoot You or Thank you?
I popped out to have a look at mine and the solid plastic pipe sheared when I attempted to turn the pipe to see he part number, Lucky or what? Absolutely no force applied.
Have been hunting a 100/200ml leak a month for a few months now and have gathered the alloy pipes and some seals, ready to change out, and the back cross over heater line.
So one more to add to the list now. Thanks.
and a bucket under the car to catch the CW which is draining out from the header tank.
The link above shows the pipe from the expansion tank with two connections Where we apparently we have three connections?
see below. I would check and confirm with JLR dealer.
As above post recommending the replacement too Alloy pipes. What is Leaking now is the connection between the Plastic header and the vent line to the expansion tank.
I will be running a silicon hose between the expansion tank and connector. In order to do away with the hard plastic pipe section which has become excessivly brittle!!!!.
If you just replace the hose section , it may not solve the problem, as my plastic header pipe connection is not in that a great, condition.
Some posts on the subject, and photos of the alloy pipes and the connector.
Brass Connector between CW header and the Expansion tank. The original plastic connector between CW header pipe and the Expansion Tan. The sealing O ring. Poor condition sealing surfaceo he plastic connector. same close up.
The Plastic Hose is date stamped 01/12/09 on a 2013 car ????
I haven't been on the forum much in the past 5 years. I'm glad to see there are aluminum options out there now for a lot of the plastic cooling parts.
Does anyone know if you can mix and match the aluminum and plastic pipes? I was hoping to replace only the leaking seamed upper pipe with aluminum now and then replace the lower y-pipe when I need the supercharger off for other work in the future.

I reached out to EuroAMP and they confirmed what I had gathered from reading a variety of posts - no I cannot mix and match the aluminum upper with the plastic y pipe since I have the stock three piece factory version with the fitting in between the pipes. Looks like I'll be replacing both with aluminum and inspecting/replacing other parts once the supercharger is off.
