What's happened to the DRL problem thread I started a few years ago? Is my search not working correctly? There was a lot of very good information within that thread for an as yet unresolved problem with the 20017 -20 LED headlamps.

So, that small chip turned into a 40cm crack across my windscreen. It doesn't affect my view when the visor's down but, isn't going to get through the MOT in a few months time. I've just had a discussion with Autoglass and requested an original windscreen. They got back to me and it will be an...

Now I'm into the realms of DIY servicing, does anyone know the spec or have details for differential oil for a MY2018 V6 340hp please?

... they just love my car. Just got back from Belgium yesterday and it's the second time I've been with the F-type. Each time driving through France to get to Belgium the French go nuts over my car. This time, the first thumbs up was within a mile of getting off the ferry. There were several...

Out of the blue the alarm has started going off. Unlocking/locking/opening the doors/starting the engine made no difference. No flashing lights just noise. I left the doors and boot open in case a moth or something had triggered it, but I don't think so. After approx 5 minutes of this it...

Just lately, I've been getting a double beep when unlocking. Never had it before and it seemed pretty consistent. No error messages anywhere. Opened and shut the doors/bonnet/boot a few times in case it thought something wasn't open or closed with no change. Then, just to really muck me about...

My dipped headlamps are a bit too low to be of any real use. It's always been like it but not really a problem since I rarely have need to go out after dark. However, needing to go out more after dark I would like to tweak them up a bit. There appear to be two adjusters on my MY2018 with LED...

Up until recently, the windscreen washers would give a squirt on each of the first two upstrokes of the wiper blades when the button on the end of the stalk is pressed. (It then does a futher few strokes, without water, and a delayed stroke a few moments later.) Now, when the button is pressed...

Hi all, Campaign H136, 'Pass by noise in latched special programmes modes' Campaign H239, 'Pass by noise in latched special programmes modes' Does anyone know what, if any, the difference is between these two? I successfully avoided H136 when it was printed on the job sheet and I put a line...

I've tried searching but cannot find the thread where someone mentioned they managed to get JLR to reverse out an unwanted software update. Could someone point me in the right direction of that thread or could the person concerned message me please? (I'm getting all sorts of bullshit from JLR...

They sneaked it onto my car when I wasn't looking. Just had the sub-frame braces done under warranty and, shortly after, I noticed it wasn't holding onto Dynamic Mode upon re-start. It would appear H239 was installed. I've asked the retailer for full information on what this update does and at...

Does anyone have any information on how to remove the interior trim inside the boot? I've got an annoying leak that I think is tracking down the hard plastic trim near the interior light in the boot. It's the trim with slots in that it's dripping from. I want to pull it apart and locate where...

My F-type's coming up to 3 years old this month and will be having it's 3rd service before the end of the month. Whilst it's up on the ramp, I'll be having a look around to see if there's anything that needs mentioning before the warranty runs out. Aside from looking at the potentially rusty...

Pretty much as the title. The cross member bracing corrosion issue is now into it's 6 page. I've PMd pete@jaguar myself regarding this issue (back in June) and had no reponse . A bit of input I'm sure would be appeciated.

I recently had a mouse do £1300 of damage by chewing through a Nox sensor wire. The orange engine management light came on and I sent the car in to be fixed under warranty. Once there and pulled apart, it became apparent it wasn't a warranty issue but a rodent issue. Of course the car is already...
