Follow this link to the Jaguar BlueTooth Connectivity Centre: Vehicles - Jaguar

Here you will find a list of compatible phones and pairing methods. The list only includes phones tested and approved by Jaguar. Owners of earlier models fitted with Jaguar BlueTooth have found some non-approved phones can be paired but not all functions are available. F-Type could be similar.

The USA F-Type accessories catalog link above is broken.
Here's a link to the live brochure on Jaguar's website:

http://www.jaguarusa.com/Images/5-22...cm97-36307.pdf

I've also attached the current US accessories catalog below.

Post F-Type order guide and pocket facts

The attached docs may be of interest.
Note that Jaguar continues to tweak option availability, so there may be adjustments here and there. For example, the exterior black pack is apparently now available with Stratus Grey paint.

Post F-Type 2015 Order Guide

This has been released for model year 2015. See attached.
It has a lot of information. For example, I hadn't realized the transmission drive ratios are so different between the 3 models.

Yeah, the V-8 has so much low-end grunt that it makes up for softer gearing. (Does make one wonder, though, how 6th-8th gear would perform without the top speed-limiter.)

Thanks for sharing. I like how this F-Type forum is shaping up. Having just stepped into the R coupe and Jaguar for the first time, an active community is important to me.

While each separate link does appear to be disabled, just use the URL listed at the top of technabob's post:

http://api.viglink.com/api/click?for...-type%2520docs

There you'll find the folder called "jaguar f-type docs" which contains each topic in PDF.

Yeah, I think actually not all of the info in the brochure is quite up to date, as it obviously had to be prepared some time in advance. I think the announcements yesterday included the 770 Meridian being standard across the range. Also, I think the pano roof is going to be standard on '16 coupes, though it's shown as an option in the brochure.

Keep in mind that the announcement yesterday was for the US market. The brochure is for the UK. Even for MY2015, stuff that is offered standard in the US is optional in the UK. Apples to oranges comparison.

Only way to remove front grill pieces is to remove the entire front clip first.
Upon opening the front hood/bonnet, the screw points will become rather obvious.

Once you have the front clip successfully separated from the rest of the vehicle and carefully stowed, the grill pieces are held in place by a series of clips and tabs that will be self-evident once you've got that far.

I cut and pasted these pics that were posted in another thread some time back.

I doubt you will be hot baking the grill. These pieces are plastic
