  1. Sure can on my xf sat nav. dont be tempted to do it while driving, jag sat nav is slow and complicated.
  2. Well, I was going to get the torque pro ELM327 to suit the Torque pro app but they're temporarily out of stock. Will get one very soon and post how I get on in case someone else out there in Jag-land is looking for similar. Thanks everyone for your help, nice to see an active helpful forum !
  3. Thank you Joe. I will do something like this. With my old MG ZTT (had the big cat for a year now) the club members even developed a little circuit board that would read the bus and enable you to put a digital temp read out straight from the bus which you could place anywhere discretely on the dash so it looked good too. Temperature guages are, like you describe, nearly as useless as an on/off switch and often warn you far too late really especially if you need 10 minutes or something to find a safe place to pull over.
  4. I would like to know the outcome of this. I think that without any working key for your car to be cloned then no-one could issue you new key(s) except for Jaguar themselves, possibly some clever person has worked around this but I imagine this will cost you a packet at JLR. It cost me 170 quid to have a firm repair and clone one key from a working one, and that's after buying a blank which I found only one local key smith who had the kit to match and cut the blank to match the working key I had. Always have 2 keys bud, one day it could save you all sorts of grief.
  5. Thanks Joe for all of your input, but it's really not what I'm looking for. in fact it's about useless. It looks like I will be investing in what Ian is suggesting. Gawd, a simple temp gauge, or even a digital read out of speed would be nice. I love this car but some things are not thought out as they should be for a luxury sports saloon. Hey ho. keep saving for the Fpace 🙂
  6. Thanks Joe, so my car doesn't really have Acc or on options, it's a push button start, but I will try in engine running mode. I would like to see the image you talk about but it doesn't appear to be in your post. I've never seen anything like what you describe on the screen. Secondly... pin code ? what would that be ? If you could talk me through this it would be excellent and I would love you a long time. TBH, google doesn't come up with much but cookies and advertising.
  7. Is there anyway to access my '10 plate XF on board diagnostics from the dash or will I require a computer reader. I would particulary like to monitor the 3.0 diesels engine temperature, this was a matter of a few secret presses of buttons to do on dash in my last MG ZTT. I am surprised Jag left out a temp guage (ok, I know most of them are pretty useless anyway) and left it down to idiot lights - orange and red warnings when it's just about too late. Surprises me for such a drivers car... Thanks People.
  8. Personally Martin, I would re-tap the rims larger, a decent set of new quality bolts to your taste (allen screws anyone ? ) and you're done, with a minor upgrade thrown in.😉
