Thanks,

my understanding is that where yours says PU2....It needs to say PUXA? Can anyone else confirm??? mine say PU2 as well and its a 2019.5. no failures yet but in time I'm sure...

Jag designed the straight 6, knowing that it wouldn’t fit in the F-type. I never quite understood that.

The JLR Ingenium straight six (3.0 litre) has been out for a few years now (2019/2020), in both petrol and diesel forms.
Petrol = AJ300 (sometimes AJ300P), diesel = AJ300D.
Fitted mainly to various Range Rovers and Land Rovers and also the Jag F-Pace.
Yep, from the get-go JLR knew it would not fit in the F-Type, well not at least without a substantial redesign of the front end structure, my guess is that JLR and/or Tata decided the cost of crash testing/certifying a whole new front end design was too much for the smallish sales volume of the F-Type.

Default PUXA headlights

I had the Vision Pack headlights in my 2017 replaced recently. These supposedly rotate as the car turns. The new ones both have PUXA id sequences on them. The car was originally built late 2016 and the headlights suffered from the microcracking, hence the replacements.
