Just got a 2013 XJL Portfolio
Im noticing something different about the windshield.
there are vertical lines that can be seen but at night it
creates an almost distorted view. Any ideas what this is?
Is there something about the windshield I don’t know about?

Welcome to the forums Kbschicago,

You can probably see the fine wires of an electrically heated windscreen. Some people are seriously aggravated by these but I focus a long way ahead and they don't bother me.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xj-x351-53/ to the X351 forum for help, advice and information.

Please 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 use the US Midwest Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-midwest-39/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

to answer your concern, the lines are part for the "electric heated windshield"......the lines are supposed to be "invisible"...and will disappear as you get used to driving with them.
