Hi All, New Member, Newbie Questions

Hi Jason, as far as I know, all of the original functionality remains with the Cartronics set up, uses the existing display screen just adds additional capability.
If you have now joined the XKCC, the website has a couple of reviews of both Cartronics and Mr 12 Volt systems, check them out.
On the tyres question on your other post: Dunlop and Pirelli are the "development" tyre brand for the XKR and you are correct in wanting to ditch the Continentals, never been happy with cars with those fitted. Plus, any tyre over 5 years old these days is suspect on something with +500 BHP.

Tyres (Yeah, I know!)

Hi Jason
For me as long as the Continentals are as good as you indicate (check the sidewalls for any cracking / damage) as long as they are not too old I would leave them there and save the £950 for those inevitable bills. The tyre age is stamped into the sidewall as 4 digits. First 2 digits give the week number and final 2 digits the year, so 4018 would be week 40 of 2018.
Enjoy your new toy.

Engine Cutting out

Well here we are February 26, and the car is fixed,
After being at 3 garages, a new alternator and a new battery and fuel sensor's ! turns out when they removed ECM as they think it faulty. Below there was a corroded wire rubbing on the body work,, striped and replaced. Cars back,,
Thanks to, “in car tunes “Seaton Delaval, just took him 3hr

XJL Intermittent Starting Problem

I have reluctantly sold my XJL, sad to see it go but common sense prevailed and the world is full of cars looking for a new home. So for the time being I am not a Jaguar Owner….. but watch this space !
