Default New Jag Owner

Hey Everyone,

I am new to the forum and new to Jaguar.

My name is Aaron and recently purchased my first Jaguar in Saskatchewan, Canada. A nice step up from my previous car (2003 Hyundai Tiburon GT). A new (to me) 2009 Jaguar XF Premium Luxury in Lunar Grey with black interior.

I am pretty positive this car has every option available and has a bunch of accessories thrown on it too. I have had this car 3 days and I am in love with it. I am still customizing it for all the bells and whistles but just a couple quick questions.

Do the premiums not have rain sensing windshield washers? And do the exterior side mirrors not fold away automatically on the premiums? I thought both of these are the case but it appears mine doesn't do that. Lastly, with the global down I can hold the unlock button on the FOB and it will open everything up but I cannot hold the lock button to close everything up,

I have to hold the button on the door handle or the lock button within the car. Is this the same on everyone else's XF? Either way really love the car and am enjoying driving it!

Thanks,

Aaron

Welcome to this friendly Forum, Aaron. You've got a superb car there.
I'd ask any specific questions in your car's section
XF and XFR ( X250 ) - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
but have a good read of the manual first. I'd be amazed if you don't have rain sensing - it took me a bit to work out you have to select BOTH auto and intermittent wipe for it to work!!
