    I purchased this product for one reason and that is the module which comes with the the conversion kit. IT DOES NOT COME WITH THE MODULE IT SHOWS IN THE PICTURE AND DESCRIPTION. This company claims they do not sell the module and I should be able to find it elsewhere. Definitely call this company and get verbal conformation before spending hundreds of dollars in a decision based on their websites information

    I like the connection that came with the bypass module

    Bypass will not work on my 2008 according to Suncore. Didn’t find this out until after they were all installed and multiple emails and photos back and forth. The lack of transparency is a bit upsetting.

  4. Imported from AmazonSource context: Installed this on my 2008 Jaguar XJ. Installation of the shocks was quick and easy. Ride height is same as factory and comfort feels just as good. The problem came on the air suspension bypass. The instructions call for the colored wire to be installed a certain way, this is INCORRECT! The correct way for me was Red to Brown/White, Black to Black, Blue to Yellow, Green to Green. I found this sequence on the instructions for the Arnott suspension. Once connected properly you will see a tiny green light in the bypass light up. Would give it 5 stars if not for the bad instructions.

    Jaguar 2006 XJ8Wiring instruction was wrong. Tried what the other reviewer wrote.Red – Brown/White, Black – Black, Blue – Yellow, Green – GreenInitially, the CATS Fault did not go away, but after disconnecting the battery and reconnecting, the error code went away.Checked with OBD tool and saw one fault code “suspension system not responding” but I guess that is because I had pulled out all 4 connectors to the suspension control (as explained in the instruction). However, this code did not result in any error message on the dash board or fault light.Another side effect of this conversion is that the parking brake no longer auto engages when parked on a slated road, since the automatic suspension system along with the air suspension is off. I have to engage it manually when needed, just like other non-air suspension cars.

    Since i bought my Jaguar, I’ve spend hundreds of dollars and hours of work into diagnosing and fixing the air suspension. I finally decided to convert everything over.This kit did exactly what I wanted. My Jag no longer sags and the annoying “Air Suspension Fault” warning is gone. Would recommend to anyone tired of fixing an older air suspension.
