lower is too but tell the mechanic you need to put a washer on each side to make up for the extra space on the hub. this is if your car has the earlier wishbone with 59mm hub side bushing, 2004 is a grey area

 

So far I'm about to order these from a 2011 XF Sedan with only 30k on the clock...what do you think, look ok? only 35 euro each

looks good to me

 

better than mine anyway!

 

Hi, does anyone know the cheapest way to replace the air shocks with coil shocks? saw a kit for 320 euro but was wondering if any non air shocks off other models may fit so I can buy off a scrapper, thanks!

 

buy all 4 shocks from an XF

mechanic will have to enlarge the holes towards the center

 

thank you for your insight

so far ive bought the front shocks with springs from a 2015 Jaguar Xf 2.7 V6 Diesel 36 euro each

 

I see what you mean by enlarging the holes towards the center. Have you done this? Do you know if the car sits higher or lower after changing all the shocks for these?

 

yes with springs from a 3.0 V6 s-type. it sits pretty much the same as before

i don’t know how it’ll sit with the diesel front springs

 

sits perfectly! done! front and rear. thanks for your advice!

 

now to figure out how to get rid of the error messages before my next annual technical test. i took the relay out so the compressor won't flatten the battery, but maybe just unplug the compressor, ive read something about returning the correct voltage back to the controller etc,

but it drives great.

 

unplug fuse 52 and fuse 12 in rear trunk fuse box. they will be 10A and a 20A

disconnect battery, touch terminals together for 20 seconds.

reconnect and messages will be gone.
