Smile Hello from North East England!

Hello!

I started my Jaguar journey with a 2012 XF 3.0 D S Portfolio, in Santorini Black, which I've had for 4 years and is the family car/wife's daily driver. It's been pretty reliable but I've rebuilt both rear calipers due to them sticking, fitted a new heated/cooled seat module and resealed an injector last year.



A job change this year with a commute of 10% of what I was currently doing gave me the chance to buy a British Racing Green F-Type V8S in June as my daily driver, which is awesome fun, it's raised the bar of exhaust sounds!





It's got most of the options ticked, but I would like to upgrade from the 380W to 770W sound system, I've bought and installed the center speaker, and the amplifier (DX23 19C164 BA, which I believe is the right one after reading Cambo's detailed thread on it) is sitting in the garage waiting to be fitted, although I will be seeking some assistance from the forums on reprogramming the CCF and possibly reflashing the amplifier - I'm still not sure if this bit is needed.

I'd also like to add a dipping passenger mirror when reversing.

I've been using an iCarsoft EU which covers most of my and my family's cars, but with having 2 Jaguars now I'm looking to get a SDD set up, which will also allow me to change my CCF.

I'm looking forward to joining in and learning more about these cars and what you can do with them.
