Hi folks,

New member here.

I am the proud owner of a 2003 S-Type V6 Sport (UK Model - De-chromed). I already have fitted a mesh grill, Pipercross air filter, Superchips ECU upgrade, colour coded lower air splitter and HID upgrade.

Next mods are going to be a new head unit, sub woofer and various LED bulbs for side-lights, number plate lights and reverse lights.

I look forward to speaking to you all and getting valuable information.

Regards,

Adam

Welcome to the forum,

In that case you'll need to be a bit patient with the stereo fitting plans!

Nice looking XKR! You may wish to post in the XK forum with your problem as well, and include the specific DTC's that are showing up. With an ECU mod, it might be tricky to pin down the exact issue. Luckily we have a lot of very knowledgeable members, someone will surely be able to assist.

Looks like you haven't been back to your thread in XK8 section?
