26:10 Excellent video. I've owned my X150 XKR for nearly 4 years and didn't know how to fold both mirrors whilst still in the car. Everyday is a school day. Thanks

Useful info, thanks Paul. The lumber support is, as you would expect, the lower part of the seat upright. It moves forwards and backwards into your lower back. The travel is fairly small but takes a while from front to back limit. Put your hand on the seat and run the motor forward for 20 seconds or so and then backwards, you should feel some change.

The seat setting buttons also auto adjust the steering wheel height and distance....us tall ones never notice,but for a smaller person its a surprise...

Thanks for all your info. I have a 2007 XK convertible, I enjoy driving it very much. 56000 miles on the clock.

I have the same issue with the mirror! luckily found the setting within the screen to turn it off but great to see you can use the memory function to dip the mirrors!

Press the screen saver button twice and the screen is turned off completely. my auto dip mirror has never reset properly, i will try your 2 memory suggestion. Your videos always want me to go out and tinker with mine. no pun intended !

I love my 2006 X150; it's such a great cruiser (not that kind :) ). I drive between the UK and the Netherlands often, and it's so comfortable, even with a straight-through exsaust being a bit too loud. I use the glovebox USB for my dashcam, the wires hidden behind the A-frame trim and then snacked to the glove box. I use the tilt sensor deactivated often for obvious reasons; just wish switching the headlight did not require the removal of the headlights. My mirror dip unfortunately doesn't work, same problem as yours; they also go haywire. I also do the seat-setting trick. I will try setting it up again. I did not know about the double press to fold the mirror while in the car. Never missed it but good to know!

Thank you Paul 👍 More jaguar xk videos please 🎉

the AC is used to stop it misting up, so recommended to leave on. the mirror thing is because the mechanism needs cleaning and rubbing. It's sensing too much current and moving away from that position to protect it.

Great tip about the mirror, I have exactly the same problem of mine going anywhere when using the mirror dip function plus the fact that when I reverse out of the garage I don't want it to dip so using your memory setting method is a great idea when parking. Thanks for the tip

With regard to your errant mirror, this used to happen on my BMW. It turns out that it's poor contact/corrosion on the connection on the mirror motor. It "see's" a higher resistance which confused the motor control module. Might be worth a try in the future as it cured my issue.

Thanks for another great, informative video!

Another one I just learned is the ability to prevent the windows rolling down by themselves. You can disable that feature. It's designed such that if you hold down the open button it unlocks and rolls down the windows. However, I've had it activate a couple of times by itself (worrying when you come out in the morning and find your windows open...). It can be disabled and it's probably a good idea to do so. Look under 'Locks' in the handbook.

I have a 2010 5.0 NA and I love it. Was thinking of selling but have been watching XK vids for a couple of hours and it's going nowhere now! I knew most of the tricks apart from resetting the windows and the cup holder being removable. That's coming out tomorrow cos I never ever ever ever drink or eat in my car and the extra space for my phone would be useful. Wish my son would learn that one, last time I saw his XE it could do with a clean inside 😂 My very old X5 does the same crazy stuff with the reversing dipping mirrors, I'll check the XK tomorrow cos I've got it set to 'off' and I reckon I did that probably cos I've got the same trouble as yours although I can't remember tbh. My most recent issue is the headlining has come adrift and is hanging down. Really annoying so gotta be fixed when I find out how or where to get it done. One thing I've fitted to mine is some coloured Jaguar logo door puddle lights and they are mint! AliExpress jobs. Work brilliantly and look very special when I step out of the car at night in town. I found with my inflatable lumber adjustment that you have to press it forward for quite a while before you feel it pushing into your back. It seems odd that both of yours are not working, maybe check the fuses? There are loads of them so it could be one has gone. I think they work on air inflation so of you can hear the motor/pump working maybe check an air tube or whatever they use under the seats hasn't become detached. I think I may remove the ashtray too as the extra space could be handy. I don't know if it's the same on your 4.2 but inside the centre tunnel cubby hole on mine there is a special slot to put the key fob in, I believe it maybe charges it via induction, although that is a guess. I bought two new key fobs for mine because I only had one it it was about to break but I found when it was a bit weak and was not blipping very well, putting in that slot seemed to help get it working better, hence my assumption that it charges the button battery inside the key fob. Really enjoyed watching your video, thanks for the insights 👍👍

The "mirror dip" feature is in theory very useful, but I found it disorienting when reverse parking, and don't use it; guess you have to get used to it...The trick about using one of the seat presets for that feature is clever - might give that a go. Also, I keep an emergency $20 bill under the removable cup-holder - y' never know...

Great channel found this very helpful also the update on key fob, the reason seat bolster button not working your car may not have this feature, mine is 2009 XKR Christopher Ottawa Canada, keep up the great work

The lumbar support switch moves up and down as well as forward and backwards. Pushing it up or down you should feel the corresponding part of the seat (higher or lower back) inflating/deflating depending on your input

Now to watch your key fob videos. It would be rude not to after forking out for two new fobs and programming of them last year 😮😂

Kerbed my rear left alloy while reversing a couple of weeks ago😭😭😭. I knew the mirror dip function was there but never felt the need to use it. 🤷 Anyway, fairly simple repair and now sorted😊. Great vid as usual Paul👍

Nice to see the black cat out and about again 😎

Hi Paul, re the mirrors, my XK passenger mirror works fine on reverse dip but sometimes when driving normally it's all over the place when I go to check it. Would be nice to know what causes it but it's not a big problem, I just press the memory button and it returns to normal. Also on the lumbar support, my XF is similar, I find if I hold the button for a long time it does pump up eventually, the XF also has side bolsters and these are the same, maybe a lazy pump or a leaking valve / hose. I haven't tried the passenger side on either car yet. Great videos of the Jag and the MR2, keep them coming, HowardT

Nice to see the jag again big man , unfortunately every jag I’ve owned has had the same issue with the dipping mirror on reverse, so strange 😂

Useful, thanks.

You can remove the rear window by undoing the screw hidden behind the rubber edges, pillar less in the summer...

Great vid and thanks again for the info. Looking to get one a 4.2 XK later in the year. I just clocked the 12V white 'brick' item and one of the annoyances is playing bluetooth music from my phone. Now I am aware of the invery adapter if its got the ipod socket but is tht a 12V in the little front cubbyhole slider? I thought it might be a cig lighter only on older cars so wasnt sure if an FM bluetooth transmitter would work? Not sure if thats what that is or just a powerbrick for other devices ? Thanks for any info!

The lumbar support in my 2011 5.0 Portfolio is pneumatic, and very notable when you adjust it. There is a compressor and three (?) air-bags in each seat. May you have a leak in yours?

i had same issue with my seat turns out there a module for them and if battery is ever disconnected or goes flat they need reset ...there maybe something similar for the mirrors ? not sure waiting on the carsoft diag machine so will update you if there is setting to reset mirrors as i know there one to do seats etc

A good feature is being able to synchronise your electric garage door opener to the car itself. One less fob to worry about having to carry around.

One issue I have with my 2010 model if anyone can help is the aircon. It goes cold but only after between 1 and 4 miles depending on how hot it is outside. It doesn't blow cold straight away like other cars I've owned. It's fully gassed so I'm not sure what the issue is. Does anyone have any ideas please?

thanks very helpfull

Great video! I just purchased a 2007 XK with 27,000 miles. Triple black convertible! I do have a question that is a bugger: the high beam headlamps seem aimed correctly but the low beams are almost straight down making night driving out of the question. Been researching this and all I have found is “go to the dealer”. Any tips?

Thank you

I think The lumbar adjustment is side bolsters, not the centre as is normal. They inflate and tighten the width not protrude into the lower back.

Good clip, did you do a clip on bringing the door window closer to the rubber as I think I may have to adjust as a strong squirt of water saw evidence of a little trickle on the vertical rubber. Its as if the window just needs adjusting closer to the jam by say 1mm. Is that a fiddlely job?

Hi Paul enjoy all your videos. I wonder if you could help me please. Do you know if and how you can take the driver's door mirror out itself. I need to renew mine. Thanks Allan.

Hi Paul, my mirror on the passenger side does exactly the same thing. Problem is how are we going to fix it?😂😂😂(you)
