Any XF expert know what a cx23-9c623-ab is ??

[TRfan]

When my xf went in for its MOT, a plastic lump - obviously broken off a bigger lump - fell out.

The tester said he didn't know where it came from.

It bears the jaguar logo and the part number cx23-9c623-ab.

Car still runs as normal !

The 9000 series p/nos hint to it being a fuel system part, but cannot find anything missing.
Any advice ??

Oh I hate that - you put it in Google and the first hit is back here again

[TRfan]

Aaaaah. - I had already tried all the obvious, that's why I decided to ask on here where the experts lurk ...

Any pictures?

[TRfan]

Hopefully photo will post. ... the 50P didn't fall out as well !

Could it be the black plastic widget on top of this air con pump?.
It's hard to see what purpose it serves.

Seems it’s part of the air intake hose.

Jag/Ford part numbers are in three sections.

First is the model/model year first used/design centre

Second is the base number. It’s the same for any part of that type in every Jag/Ford

Third is a derivative, i.e if a model has multiple options of that part, like brake components.

If you google 9c623, you’ll see what I mean.

Might be something similar to this. It enhances the intake noise, but it’s the engine side of the air meter.

This is a bracket that is bonded onto the air flow pipe at one end and the engine at the other (the latter with a 10mm nut). It has snapped off on my XF but isn't critical to an MOT or performance as it hardly supports any weight or movement of the pipe.

Jaguar want £240 to replace - £170 for the pipe/bracket.

It is part of C2Z16282.
