Hi All

This photo is the day I picked her up, first port of call was at my fathers. He fell in love with her as well.

She been really looked after. 14 years old and there's not a scratch on her body work. All that's needed is all the leather work to be cleaned then a good conditioner going on, well that's a job for tomorrow.

Hi Jason, welcome back to Modern XK motoring. The DVD based Satnav system in the XK is now well out of date and whilst you may be able to find "pirate" discs on the web, claiming to offer "updated maps", these can create more problems than they solve. I know of several instances where the installation of these update discs have actually caused the whole infotainment system and the Touchscreen to freeze and become corrupted and unusable. I am sure others will be along soon to advise that they have had a very positive experience, but until you slot the disc into the DVD player in the boot, you don't know what result you will receive.
In my opinion, there are two ways to sort the out of date map situation. A) get yourself a good phone holder and use the Maps App from your phone. B) search around and you will find a number of companies who can install Apple CarPlay or Android Auto into your XKR-S depending on your phone preferences. These modifications give you a truly modern update for use in the car. Please note that the installation to a 5.0 litre XK is not straightforward and does require a specialist, it is not a DIY task unless you are an experienced Electronics Engineer.
Incidentally, your profile information says your car is an XFR-S, not XKR-S.
Good luck.

Hi All
Newbie here, so be gentle ;o)
Had (in order) XF, XJ, XKR-S, XFR (stolen), 650i (sorry for defection!), XKR-S (again, since last Thurs, 55th b'day present to me!)...
So, is there any point actually updating the stanav maps via DVD, for a 2011 car? I can see 2020 map disks online around £20, is it actually worth it for a car of this age?
Cheers
Jason

Leaky boot and busted chromatic mirror

Hi
easier just to buy a used rear view mirror and just replace it
door mirrors are the same
boot leak is usually across the top of the rear lights, there a rubber trim thats pushes in that never seals, most people remove it clean it and refit them with some silicone sealant, which usually cures it
cheers

Key fob

Hi
There companies that repair them really cheap on ebay
send it to them and they fix them, they send them back and should work straight away
this way you dont need them coding to the car with software, like you would if you bought new ones
if they dont work after a battery change theres a fault with the remote
cheers

Front parking sensors not working but the back ones are fine

Hi
Are you sure there switch on
on some s-type you can turn the front sensors off on the overhead console
otherwise get it plugged in to Jaguar ids/sdd and it will tell you whats up with them
cheers
