  1. Hi Alvin. My reverse lights stopped working and it was a simple fix, the reverse light switch that sits on top of the gearbox had failed. Cheap and easy fix, mine is a 2.0D manual.
  2. Hi folks, Does anyone know if it's possible to get the factory build order, spec sheet or equivalent for the X Type? We have an SLK in our household also and managed to get one for that. Gave the VIN details and got the build order back for it. I think it's a good piece of info to have. Any help and advise is appreciated. Dean.
  3. Hi folks, The tailgate glass on my 57 plate 2.0L diesel won't open now. I know that there's a switch in the unit, how do I go about checking this out. I don't want to try to force open the plastic cover at the opening button just yet. Thanks.
  4. Hi Paul, I've received a CD changer. hopefully it's the final piece of the puzzle. i would be gratefull if you could give a briefing on fitting the Voice module, Bluetooth module and CD changer before I jump in and have a go. Thanks.
  5. Thanks Paul, you don't have a CDC with cardridge by any chance do you?
  6. Hi Paul, Been quite busy with work last few days. I've got the 4-1 D2B cable, next I'll need the CDC as I got outbid on the last one. As soon as I get a CDC I'll start to piece it all together in the car. I only hope all the electrical connectors are tucked up in the loom at the back.
  7. I've had a look online for a 1 to 4 D2B cable and results are mostly showing different cables from what I need. Woud it be possible for you to supply one? That way I'm getting the correct part. Thanks.
  8. As I've never handled a D2B cable I think I'll leave the splicing to the experts if you don't mind doing it for me. I received the VACM VOICE MODULE today, first of many bits.
  9. Hi Paul. I've taken these pics of what's wired in. I've got working sat nav. The M6 is a bit of a jaunt. Thanks.
  10. I think plug and play is my best option thanks. I've ordered the parts from the links you gave. Waiting for the bid to end on the CDC.
  11. Thanks Paul, If I get all the parts is there any fitting instructions around? I know where the CDC fits into but don't know where the other parts are located. I can't thank you enough for the help so far, much appreciated.
  12. Hi Paul, I'm keen if it's not silly money. Do you have an idea of the total cost please? Much appreciated. Dean.
  13. Thanks for the info. Both of my Android fones can't pick up "Jaguar" in the bluetooth list so looks like the kit isn't fitted. I don't suppose you would know where I can find everything I need to get bluetooth and CD changer up and running? Thanks again. While I'm here, at some point the cigarette lighter socket has been removed leaving the hole and wiring where it should be. Wiring is fine so I'm after a new ashtray trim piece with cigarette lighter socket and matching gear lever gaitor with plastic surround for a manual car. The colour of the ones in the car are a kind of silver grey colour but I'm not bothered if someone has the wood trim effect or silver parts. As long as they are in good clean condition as mine are badly scratched.
  14. Hi folks, I've recently bought a 2007 Sovereign estate 2.0 diesel. I have a couple of questions if anyone can help please. I can't connect any phones to the car. I've entered the code ##3*# then pressed the green send icon on the screen and..... Nothing. Display shows No BT Phone. Next one is the power socker/!Removed! lighter, it's missing and I'd like to fit an original one or equivalent. The wiring is there and supplying power. In fact if anyone has a complete ashtray compartment with a clean lid in either wood effect or grey and a matching manual gearshift gaiter with surround I'd bite your hand off for them. Last topic, CD changer. My sovereign doesn't have one and probably never had one as there's no visible spare wiring and plugs when I remove the trim at the nav unit. How much of a pain is it to obtain a changer and all wiring? Thanks in advance. Dean.
