I am with Jon, why would you?

I had the same problem with my Nissan Elgrand and could not find a fix. I did find that there is a piece of kit, its called Radio Band Expander that you can get that you fit to get the radio to use the frequencies for Brit stations.

Reversing camera failing to work due to fibre optic cable in the boot, also mine does not work if it is or has just rained. A pain in the !Removed!.

This site may help you

My reversing camera stops when has rained or I wash the car, just another Jag anomaly 

I agree with Bigvic. The mechanic that I use charged me £150 (approx) to do the job and he comes to my home to do it.

I agree with Jimbov, if it is then it goes anywhere you can hear it. Good luck

There are 2 wear sensors, front left and right rear. Did you change the correct one?

Check the connectors on both corners.

Yes they were both checked and the front one changed

Replaced the pads but now the warning is still coming on, anyone any ideas

As John say's Xf's are very battery thirsty. I have my CTEK MXS 5 connected  as soon as I get back home from a drive out especially in this cold weather. I hope you get it sorted mate, keep us up to date buddy.

Hi I’m the same looking to replace my discs, it was advisory on my last MOT, was think of replacing with mtec j hock, and ebc pads, would I have to put the same discs on the rear , hoping someone on here can advise TIA

Found this on a search, hope it helps buddy.  https://www.quora.com/Do-brake-pads-and-rotors-need-to-be-the-same-brand

I did not need discs John as they were in good order and not a lot of wear on them, just the pads, they were EBC pads and sensor. My mech only uses parts he would use on his own vehicles.

                                      Thanks for your input buddy

Because I suffer with this cold weather I got the job done by the mechanic we have used for some 35 years. the back pads were like new front pads just starting to wear the sensor so just changed the front discs. £130 parts and labour. Great value I think

Hi. Normal garage tools will be enough (spanners' sockets, Allen keys). Check out You tube for videos. If you're looking for pads, discs and wire, I can recommend MTec brakes in Derry/Londonderry. Free postage. I'm using their EBC Red and drilled discs.

Good luck, Paj.

Thank you Paj that's a great help I will look at the Mtec site.

When was the oil and filter in the gearbox changed?

Mine was changed in January

Mine is the same John noticed it last weekend up the Lake District. I hope it is just another XF quirk.

I have a 2012 2.2 XF and the brake warning light is coming on. I would like to know are there any special tools require to do the job and any tip in doing it would be greatly appreciated

I think your best bet is to contact Jaguar UK

That is correct Pash Had to have mine replaced by the dealer under warrant, however you can get the loom from E-Bay and it is not a difficult job to do yourself. My camera still sometime does not work the I go for a drive and it come back on again, weird thing these Jaguar XF's

Hi , can you let me know the outcome of what happened as I am now experiencing that exact same issue in my jaguar xf s luxury premium 2013, did you need to replace the whole tail light unit as this is what I have been told as you apparently can't buy indicator bulbs..

They are a sealed unit containing the LED's.

I had this problem on my XF luxury and yes after messing around, cleaning this a that as advised by different sources, I had it replaced. It was done under warranty by the dealer I bought it from.

Stop/start could be the battery is because it has not been for a good run and when you brought it home you had the heating and radio on. The wing mirrors could be that they were not chosen as a optional extra. This was the case with mine, Hope this helps

Hi

connect it directly to the battery, make sure it has a inline fuse on the positive as close to the battery as possible

then just have the plug in the boot where its easy to access

I have the genuine jaguar ctek in mine, that cam with a proper socket thats mounted in the boot side carpet, so you just open the boot and plug the charger in, the boot can be closed while its on charge, the boot seal wont damage the cable, but make sure the battery vent pipe is still fitted, some people dont bother with the vent pipe on the battery, but it vent dangerous explosive gases out of the car, not trapped in the boot

cheers

Joe

Thank you Joe, I shall look for the battery vent pipe and connect if necessary
