Hey guys, I am at my wits end, so car shut down a few times on me while driving,orange warning lights while nine yards. 

Sent to mechanic, so not to bore you all to death.

We cleaned out fuel tank, piping to pump, reconditioned HP pump ,new four injectors,new sensor on common rail. New fuel pump...,.

Still will not start. OMG losing it , as it is four months now. No codes are showing up.

HELP HELP 🙏🙏🙏🙏

If the car locks and unlocks with the key, and the lights come on for ignition, this may determine that the transponder in the key is faulty if the engine does not turn over.  Maybe worth phoning an auto locksmith to get advice?

Is the engine turning over when you try to start or just nothing at all? Are the ignition lights all coming on?

Check the condition/charge of the battery and if need be, give it a full overnight charge.

Check the connectors going into the CJB (central junction box) for signs of water ingress (verdigris).

Hi

were the injectors coded to the car, a lot of injectors these days have to be coded to the car to allow correct flow calibration

have you checked it got fuel pressure, ideally with a mechanical gauge on the rail

getting it plugged in with something like Jaguar SDD software might show more info

where it can scan all the modules and see if theres any faults

most generic code reader will only read engine ecu, which wont help, if you have a module fault,

have seen some modern cars where they wont start because the alternator has failed and unplugging it, then the car will start

If it were mine, I'd start with Jaguar SDD software, its the best out there

cheers

Joe
