And…. Again….. Engine mounts, and gear box mounts
At last worm up for the Jag.….. I stopped the engine with bonet up.
To see the engine. So…… it jigled like a….. Black *** don't twerk
Solid….3 to 5 moves.…. Left and wright.…. With amplitude of the banks moving of about 2…. Maybe 3 cm.
Is that normal? Can one of you guys…. With diesel.…. Can help me with a video with the engine and with bonnet up.…..of start and stop movement? Video via whats app of anything? I reallydont have with what to compare here….. There are only 2..3 Xj in the whole capital. Including mine. And an other is stuck at a service shop waiting for parts ))))

 

Sorry danu99 I did not realize you had a Diesel as my comments were about the 5.0L V-8 engine. I don't know how the engine mounts on the Diesel versions are constructed.
Always helps to put car details in and where you live to get better targeted answers.

Updated the info….
So, please, anyone…… help?

 

2-3cm of axial twist definitely indicates new engine mounts are needed.

 

Thanks for the answer!
And……… in Europe or uk….. Where do you guys buy the engine mounts?
Original (that's about 1000 euro) or after market? And aftermarket…… from where? Or what prices?
Same question for gear box mounts

 

Unfortunately the X351 platform has poor aftermarket support due to low production numbers. You may be consigned to a used OE part from a breaker or taking the hit for a new part.

 

Danu99 : Very sorry i havent find an suitable time (and conditions) for a video of starting my 3.0D. The weather have been crap for any proper videos here in Finland. Nature of fast engine movements require quite fast fps from camera so video taken just by phone might not capture whole movement?
Good thing is that JLR haven´t made the mounts themself, so OE parts are available as aftermarket parts, but the question is: How to regonize the OE? By quick search with part numbers give most hits to the chinese manufacturer what i believe are OE.
Few EU based JLR partsdealers also seems to offer same chinese parts. (with somewhat acceptable higher price)
Part number i used for search of engine mounts were: C2Z13435 C2D6341 8X23-6A003-CC 6W83-6A003-AD
Claimed to be suitable for 2008-2015 3.0D XJ / XF.

 

You sir.… are a sea of wisdom…… again.
I have searched myself with the first code….. And Indeed….. Only om and china options.
But.…. Anybody used china option? Are they active? How do they handle? China has prices around 100 euro even less. So…. Good possible try. Om being 800 euros plus gear box munt…… 1200 euros in total. A pretty penny!
So it seems the question is…… with so much china option.…. Did anyone used some to tell us something about them? Are they active or nor? And so on…..?
