Sweet, great tip and never really thought about that. That can certainly help save the seat bolsters by giving yourself room to get in.

I did exactly the same! Great tip!

Haha I do the exact same thing 😄👍

Haha

I will look, same for the early and later models?

@@markholubetz I think its all the same. The pull cord is hidden under the rectangular cover. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ldyhfdOKyZ2VZ5c.html .

I also have the heated steering wheel on my coupe and love it. We get a lot of very cold weather here and when driving in the fall and winter it sure is a nice feature.

Thanks for watching and supporting. Yes, that is sort of the way these cars are and they have staying power too as far as I am concerned. Have an awesome day.

Which kind d of car do you own?

Thanks David, I really appreciate that. I feel at home in the Jag and in a way I never quite did on the Gallardo.

Can software be adjusted to control wing at any speed? Seems stupid that it is only speed controlled...

@@Gatnor I am sure it can but I haven’t looked it up because I haven’t had interest in doing so.

Many thanks! Its always enjoyable to share the F Type, fun car and probably the best I have ever owned.

@@markholubetz I can fully appreciate that. I loved the way your daughter/s photo-bombed your video. Made it even more fun.

haha true, they are a couple of little jokers and surprised me too, thats what makes it fun for sure

For sure Thomas, I found these cars fun at every angle and thats part of the charm. While some competitors are dropping in knick knack gadgety electrics to dazzle at a superficial level, this car has significance from Exoticcar performance, style and charm in the exterior design, fun party tricks like the reverse hood,, rising dash vents, and dynamic exhaust played through the exhaust and not the speakers as some modern day bimmers. This and the 911 are a couple of the nicest options out there for a tad over 6 figures.

Haha, I don’t believe my 2018 has a player but I wish it did cause I have quite the collection which are now obsolete.

@@markholubetz They put them in through 2018, so it might be there? Rear of the center console, just under the lid there is a button and a slot. Easy to miss

Haha. Another way to trick the silly electronics on these cars.

Does this trick affect anything else? Hard to think that Jaguar would install a battery just for this function? So what else does it disable / erase from some modules memory?

@@Gadne92.5 It’s better to pull the secondary battery out completely. It just disables start/stop.

What sort of spec? Congrats you will love it I am sure.

@@markholubetz just brought it back home! Got an Australian spec V6 S grey and so far it is the best car I’ve owned!

Great choice Greg, the F Type is Ana amazing car, you will love it. Which configuration did you pick up?

Hi Greg! You've done a great job! The F-TYPE is a great, emotionally car... What model? Mark made a lot of interesting and useful videos... Best regards from Italy 👋

Thank you so much and hi back from Canada. Alessandro, which configuration do you have?

@@markholubetz Good afternoon Mark. I've a 3.0 V6 AWD S 380 hp F-TYPE. I do love this car! It's a full optional coupe, British Racing Green outside and "brogue " inside, with fantastic carbon ceramic yellow caliper breaks! I've bought in 2015 and waited for six months... I do love the Ian Callum's design, the incredible sound and the English trademark! Even if I live in Italy, the home of sport cars... I would like to buy the 5.0, but the taxes to be paid every year are just excessive!!! Best regards and thanks for all the videos!

Thanks Dave, yes those automation features seem to be variable and while I also like the coupe for the lines, the convertible is the way to go for maximum driving experience with the wind in the hair and full sound effects. I know it’s a bit frustrating waiting for parts but I have also heard another KZfaqr who runs a part store that things are taking months to get in some cases with this silliness that is goi g on right now. Thanks again, have an awesome week and stay tuned on the next updates.

Nice touch and great tip. Thanks that’s a good one for the books. I will check that out.

Lol, you bet it spruces things up for sure. Thanks again and hope all is well over there. Cheers.

Thanks for watching. These wheels are the factory upgraded carbon fibre blade wheels - 20 inch.

Hi, that is actually a vinyl trim that I applied to the factory valence and splitter. A couple of hours on the driveway, a few handy tools and vinyl and good to go.

@@markholubetz can you point to any instructions to do this ? It really sets the colours off nicely

Common feature in modern cars

Good morning, great choice on the F Type. Yes I still drive mine and love this car even after 4 years it still feels like a honeymoon. Which setup are you looking at? Coupe or Convertible?

@@markholubetz Coupe. I was thinking SVR but am good with an R as well.. Thoughts?

Cool, thanks, I will have to follow up there Chris as I have not yet had to do any changes myself. Sometime the suppliers change the name for marketing reasons so it may be worth checking. Likely being a gas engine and the same weight and synthetic, I would generally say not an issue, but I know its important for Diesel engines to have the right ingredients due to heavy soot.

Hi, I think these cars make great daily drivers except for pricey parts like tires and brakes. Odd strange failures but the Awd and the right tires mean it can be versatile. The leak? I have not done anything with it big have not noticed it much lately so who knows. Some of the woes come from relatively low production numbers but the other side of that coin is you do not see many around making them more unique.

@@markholubetz I completely understand about the maintenance woes. I had a 335i Hardtop Convertible for some years, and I loved the car, but every time I was turning around something was breaking lol. I guess that’s the price you pay for “passion.” Lol

Thanks Brian, yes I certainly have heard of that and I always chat with the service people, not that they are always with the program, but its something always to be aware of. Funny thing is the dealer has been chasing me to buy a new F Type bu the service side was supposed to get back to me about a replacement windshield, and I have not heard ack in a month. Strange.

@@markholubetz They're waiting for your new order dont just want to give you a windshield - they want to give you a whole car 😁

Little jokers

I will have to check but in my car there are a couple areas that seem to stay light blue while other areas are switchable. Seems a bit odd

Not too sure as I do not believe my car has that feature

You bet pretty much.

Thats a wonderful thing. The sounds of these cars is amazing.

Hi, thanks for reaching out supporting. Under the car I have a sheet of Teflon to monitor fluids on the ground which I Mai lay used for the Lamborghini that I just sold that parked there but if you see there are a couple of black spots under the car and that is the condensation with carbon that drips out of the exhaust, which some folks describe. It’s not diff oil as it’s always a watery texture.

@@markholubetz thanks Mark. I do the same especially since I had condensation problems that rusted the exhaust terminal, then replaced under warranty (!) by the Jaguar workshop that has been taking care of my F-TYPE since 2015...

For sure, sounds like a must have especially if travelling further distances.

@@markholubetz typical warranty covers the repair if able to repair the tire, if not most cover a pro rated amount for the replacement of the tire. Always check the fine print in the warranty, but even pro rated amount for some expensive tires is well worth it.

Thanks for sharing. I know there are a few features unique to different markets. Wish things were consistent.

Nice. Thanks for sharing

Sounds like some great tire choices, but yes, that’s scary when a tire lets go. That’s happened to me as well in the past.

@@markholubetz No such thing as Toyo R888Rs for the time being, they are on idenfinite national back order along with the 2021 shortage of everything.

I did find a set of R888Rs and they are far and away the best tires for my tuned RWD F-Type. So much better than Cup 2s and about the same price. They look great too.

Nice, it’s that comfort touch that is a nice feature on this.

Well that depends what kind of Mustang. If you have a Shelby GT350 or 500 you may be Ok for now but anything less and yes the F Tupe is the one to own.

Exactly, I would line to know.

Umbrella holder🙂

@@JOHNCASEY-tc7dq That’s what I figured but they are so deep I can’t reach them without actually climbing into the trunk!

A Jaguar branded card holder with a bunch of cards used whilst out or in the car.

@@jimc6486 Business cards? Playing cards? Pokémon?

It’s perfect so In other words, no.

@@markholubetz no way. u never get ur wheel aligned? Maybe the dealer did it when u get oil change. How much air u put in each tire? In the setting, it shows recommendations speed of like 45 psi for front, 37 for the back?

Can u check and update me?

45 front 37 back for high speed/performance

I think that is a great add on to the car. Love the shiny gloss black everywhere

Is the blackout PKG easy to find online?

@MOTOPILOT6 I ordered it from the Dealership.

Great choice and you will love it for sure. Have you had a chance to drive one yet? I know you will be sold.

@@markholubetz Nah never had the chance yet, haha, im sold already! But now im looking for an SUV a 2-Seater isnt the priority right now, what you think about the F-Pace SVR?

Hi I was actually in the process of filming a video spelling out all the features and options of my car. Stay tuned

@@markholubetz legend

Maybe a market specific thing because ours do not over here

Where ? I known Rolls runs with them

@markholubetz the two loops at the top of boot ,it's an extra I think

That could be true, but maybe a sport cat to replace may be the way to go and a tune to support.

@@markholubetz or something I just learned first hand. This is for US car owners. Under the Federal Emissions Warranty, all emissions related parts are covered for 2 years or 24,000 miles*, with the catalyt ic converter and engine control unit (the computer) covered for 8 years or 80,000 miles*. The Federal provisions cover light-duty vehicles up to 8,500 pounds Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). I just got my cat replaced free of charge on my 2015 F Type R with 54,000 miles. That was definitely a pleasant surprise and something I believe most car owners in the US are unaware of. It applies to all cars sold in the US undee 8500 lbs gw, and it doesn't matter if you're the first or 5th owner.

It would be great if it opened via switch at any soeed

ye

thanks

Thanks

At least on our market

Thanks

​@@markholubetz 😂 kill em with kindness Mark.

Haha

Well they are pretty cool cars
