Hello,
My name is Steve and I just purchased my first Jaguar. I had been standing by a long, long time looking for the right one; a 2004 S-Type in a brilliant blue. I had been looking for an XJ8 but could never find one with low mileage. This S-Type is immaculate and the seller was a great guy. It has caused a bit of a stir at work, but I don't care, I just love, love, love driving it.
I got into JaguarForums to get acquainted with my new ride and was impressed with the tone and quality of advice being shared. A completely different demographic from the GM and Ford sites I have used in the past. Emphatic declarations that are so wrong do more harm than help.
I had a bunch of award cash at Crutchfield saved up to put contemporary audio equipment into my prospective car. Unfortunately, my car has SatNav and need to retain the touchscreen for the HVAC. I was able to get a hands free Parrot Neo that takes care of my phone calls, four stars out of five, but I needed to get Spotify going. There is a FM transmitter already neatly installed, but it is a disappointment. Thanks to JaguarForums, I came to learn of Venelin's Bluetooth device. I received mine this weekend and I am blown away. I will be communicating my appreciation to him in a different post, but to anyone considering one, I advise to get off the fence and do it. An incredible performing device that is so easy to install
I hope to be able to offer into the JaguarForums community. I really like the tone.

Welcome to the forum Steve,
Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.
It sounds like you've already found your way to the S-Type tech forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.
Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.
You can also visit the USA North East Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/usa-north-east-me-nh-vt-ma-ri-ct-nj-ny-pa-35/ to find other members in your region.
Enjoy the forums.
