Default Hello all

Hi My name's Dave & I'm based in the West country in Bristol.

Have just bought a 2006 X type with Sat Nav, unfortunately I assumed it had bluetooth checking teh spec on teh internet, but was wrong, so trying to investigate options. Have spoke to local Hartwells Delaer who wanted £1000 plus just to order the part, and Jaguar say that there is no prewiring in reply to my e mail, but that doesn't seem right for my vin number.

Anyway hello all & I'll try & find the right forum to raise the questions I have about alternatives in.

Dave

Hello and welcome to the forum Dave,

Congratulations on your recent acquisition.

Although Bluetooth was an option across the Jaguar range from around 2004 in the UK, it was only standard specification on a small proportion of the cars (mine being one example).

The Jaguar Bluetooth system is generic and the same equipment is fitted to X-Type, S-Type, XJ and XK models.

Retrofitting would be very costly and the X-Type 2001 to 2009 section below Jaguar Models should be able to suggest other options for you.
