Central Computer Upgrade porblem on XKR
18.06.2011 at 19:45:00
Hi, can anyone help me, I have had a painful history with a 2008 XKR I purchased that still has not been resolved. I certainly was too trusting when I bought the car and now I have a mess to resolve I have no idea how to fix. Basically I bought the car from what I thought was a repurtable dealer as first registered Dec 2008 UK spec, in the event I found out from Jaguar that it was made in Dec 2007 and was sent to and imported back from Cyprus. I had no idea I was not buying a UK car. The problem is that the car has had no sofwtare updates since 2007 and Jaguar have refuesed to do this for me so I cannot get proper UK sat nav and suspect there are errors in the software. I did go to a dealer who said they may help, but tehn they say for the last 6 months Jaguar have blacked any software updates on XKR control systems. Any advice is very welcome, thank you Rudi

Is there a fault with your car or is it just a Sat Nav system/map upgrade you want?
The engine management software shouldn't be region specific there is no technical reason why Jaguar can't update it.
