I'm not sure the XJ is the same as the WJ, but the WJ has one in both front doors. They are the DDM and the PDM in the pass door. They house the window/door lock switches.

I saw someone post a bit back that there's a site you can go to where you put in your VIN and it tells you about all the factory options your XJ came with. Where was that? I want to find out if I had the factory towing package and some other things.

Im new to this but here goes. OK I have a 2000 XJ sport, its got 190,000 miles on it and im starting to have issues with engine. At start up it revsup to about 2000 RPM then drops down and comes close to cutting of. Also im overheating every now and then but cant find any leaks and have replaced my radiator 6 months ago. as well as the water pump. thermostat and tps sensor. I cant figure it out any ideas to what this may be?

Your Idle Air Controller may be hanging up inside the bore. Try cleaning the IAC and bore before going down the expensive list of possible things to replace.

Still poppin'....

I replaced my track bar over the weekend. There was a popping sound which, during inspection, the mechanic/inspector identified the track bar as the source of the sound. It was the original track bar and it appeared somewhat worn at the ball joint end. It was also easy to move the ball joint by hand, so it seemed obvious that it was time for a replacement.

After breaking the bolt at the axle tube end and suffering the chase for replacement hardware I come to find that the popping sound is still there - every time I begin the steering transition into a curve.

What gives? What else can generate that "pop" under the described conditions? I feel it through the floorboard, not through the steering wheel...

Same problem here, havnt done anything yet about it. Mine is coming from track bar.

Have someone turn steering wheel back and forth while you put your hand on every steering joint til you find it.
