According to the parts book JLM11108 are only for up to 91my. and post this date is a differant part no. JLM11696 & JLM11358
does anyone know why this is?

 

This subject has come up before.

For the life of me I simply can't visualize how/where these filters would fit on an XJS. My memory is just too foggy, it seems.

I hope you'll post some pics along the way!

Cheers

yes , they do fit , and fit well

i have installed them on my 1989 Coupe ,

remove the wiper arm grille, and the filters simply push into the side box sections , these sections allow air into the plenum for the fans etc



they are directional , so follow the instructions

i found that a bit of jiggling is required , as they seem oversized , but once in are a snug fit ,

there is no requirement for more air flow or anything , and they do filter the air quite well providing they are a snug fit

thank all.
1. but does the facelift differ by fitting under the grill.
2. and will the prefacelift fit a facelift car?
£12 is not bad on ebay as manners want 40 odd quid +

 

Where you get these filters from? How often do you clean them or replace the filters?

 

1 , it doesnt
2 , yes


3 , buy it

as i said........

probably depends on how much you use the car, on my daily car i change it every couple of years, and at 4000 miles a year it isnt that bad just grubby,

i am not sure about these but the dont fit in the same place as the others.

Jaguar XJS OE Genuine CABIN/POLLEN Filter Service Car TF3146 | eBay

 

i have re-worded the original question as the thread had got mis-interpreted somehow

 

We have pollen filters? Thought that was a big deal when introduced on the '88 - '90 (somewhere in there) BMW 7 series. Seriously, my antiquated XJS has pollen filters?

 

So did you get them ...and did they fit ??

 

yes I bought 10 last December 2012, that is a pic of them fitted, I only wanted to know so I could advertise the remaining 9 on ebay and be model specific, although 4 of them were miss labelled series 3 filters when I looked.

 

Ok, I just got the filters and buggered if l can see how they fit......Says only for pre 92 MY ......... OH OH looks like they sent xj12 ones

 

there is a lot knocking about in the wrong boxes, I bought 10 via ebay and only 6 were xjs the rest were (same boxes) series 3

 

yup, Ebay and that's what he sent me.......classic motor spares.

 

I think facelift are different to pre, I resold mine via ebay.
