No. On the right hand side of the front passenger footwell behind the trim panel.

 

What country jag said.
That is looking up at the steering column, and shows the odb2 port.

 

First really sorry for my last message it's wasted your time.

Now I give the Jaguar to one garage he said need to change all security of car (engine security, gear security others) then new key to prepare later and hopefully the engine will run.

For the inquiry about rear shap its the suspension lose, the garage said to replace the part the car will be straight.
Works need almost 4 to 5 days so will update you all about it.
I'm feeling positive that this will be looks brand new after time ^ ^​​​​​​​

 

I think I see were we crossed wires. By saying passenger side you thought we meant the transmission tunnel, when we meant inside the footwell by the passenger door.

 

It's imported from Japan

 

Yeah my mistake.-_-
Tomorrow will try take photo after they remove the part to see it. Then will send you a photos

 

This thread shows the location of the engine ECU, but of a RHD. That of a LHD is beside the driver’s footwell.

No, the engine ECU doesn’t change sides, it is always on the right hand side. Others do swap, just not that one!

 

Mmmm does these two relate to that diagram?

 

Thats the lamp control module, in the boot.

 

The whole electrical manual can be found here

Yep that is engine ECU, right hand side of car no matter which side has the steering wheel.

 

Hi friends
So sorry not updating you but I will
Now can someone tell me what the differences between my Jaguar Xj 1996 vanden Plas And the XJR6 supercharger 1997?
Its important please. Thanks

 

engine, transmission and differential usually. your VDP is long wheelbase and the XJR6 is short wheelbase only

 

xalty. Thank so much for your quick response really appreciated.
What's VDP stand for?
And it's supercharger different or also engine is totally different?
Also the transmission also not same?

 

supercharger gear should bolt up. transmission is totally different. did you find a parts car?

Vanden Plas = VDP

 

Thank you for your reply.

​​​​I will try to summarize my updates.
First for my Jaguar Xj 1996 VDP the garage finally make the key turn and engine start but shut down quickly as the fuel pump and tank are damaged need to replace.
Also my two rear shoucks damaged need to replace.
For the XJR6 supercharger the garage people said to me as suggested to not fix my Jaguar and buy the XJR6 with 2000 $ and its run an daame my Jaguar VDP.



But I confirmed from you that the XJR6 and my Jaguar Xj VDP different.
So what you suggest to me please is to contiune fix my Jaguar Xj 1996 VDP or to stop and see if I can buy the XJR6? Suggestions pls thanks

 

Here is a quick reference showing how many models are there in the X300 series and their differences.
https://jec.org.uk/models/x300-saloons
Simply put, the VDP usually refers to the X300 Long Wheel Base version with luxurious features. The VDP would be running on 4.0 engine or 6.0 V12, but not the 4.0 Supercharged.
The supercharged engine has an additional organ (the supercharger as you can see from your picture) which boosts something like 90 horsepower than the NA sibling. The supercharged X300 is not for someone who want a quiet and comfortable ride. It can roar and run very fast like supercars if you dare. The XJR has a 3.27 differential so can claim a higher top speed.
My impression is that the VDP you have is very expensive to restore, lack of parts and Jaguar expertise can be quite stressful and frustrating to a very motivated owner even if money is of no object.
The supercharged one if it still runs can be improved, but if you are after a limousine kind of car the XJR being short wheel base can be very cramp for the passengers at the rear. Given that Jaguar may be very rare in your country, if you come across an XJR, try running one and see if you like it if not it can easily her a new home.
An additional word of caution is the VDP and XJR are different in body length, suspension (hence ride height), engine, transmission (and gear ratios), traction control, etc. so there is a limit you can use one or the other as a parts car, or you end up losing two cars.
