Nope no answer, they seem very flaky and uncaring to their customers. Maybe I will just send the box back with all the parts and a little something that smells…

Redacted the complaint, I heard from Christian and his response was top-notch! I apologize for any negativity to Euro Amp

You posted a question ~3 days ago, two of those days were the weekend. Publicly bashing and vaguely threatening a business for not dropping everything over a weekend to answer your forum post is definitely the way to convince them to help you 🙄🙄

yea thanks. But sorry but I did attempt to contact them, no response. Definitely my problem though, I should have to chase them down, post messages on forums, leave messages on their website to replace a defective product that they produced. Jeez it’s the new America, the consumer has to take all responsibility.

Redacted see above comment, Christian responded and is working with me on the return.

Maybe the right kit for your car maybe not. When I search for the EuroAmp kit for a 2015 F-Type R I come up with this one: https://euro-amp.com/products/jaguar...pr_seq=uniform
Looks the same as the one you show BUT the title is different, yours has the word "upgrade" in it but the one I found does not.
This all assumes you are looking for a/the EuroAmp kit as they are the only supplier of a comprehensive kit that I know of.
Also note that the kit I have linked to is for the AJ133 "thermostat without a sensor" as there is a different kit for "thermostat with sensor", and the early F-Type R such as yours does not have a sensor with the thermostat.
Edit - I'm a bozo - the one I linked to is the kit with the plastic pipes not the alloy pipes!
No wonder it doesn't say "upgrade".
But when I search/browse on the EuroAmp site I can't find the upgrade kit (ie alu pipes) for the AJ133, maybe they have discontinued it???

https://euro-amp.com/products/jaguar...ab800391&_ss=r

It wasn’t easy to find as the site were loosely organized, it’s also out of stock.

i assumed without sensor meant you had to reuse the original sensor, no?

Is the circled part the same part that was recently made available for the v6 in metal?

You're a better man than I Gunga Din!
All I know with the thermostat sensor is the early F-Type V8 2013-2015 didn't have a sensor but later models did/do, so no need to swap over even if that was possible which I doubt.
Yep, the circled part is what you can now get in metal for the V6 but not yet for the V8.

For those of you who have completed this yourself, does EuroAmp provide an installation process and did you find it to be spot on?

Depends on the cars age i think it makes more sense to replace everything in one go, and the convenience of everything in one kit, only one supplier to contact if anything is not clear.

Also judging by the state of other rubber/plastic pieces on my car, i have no faith in any of them staying intact any longer.


edit: they are in stock, plenty in fact

Curious ..... has anyone used the method explained in another post/thread to replace the pipes without removing the supercharger?

Replaced all the pipes....while the s/c was out did the snout, the s/c fluid, plugs, and just added the rear metal pipe today - works great, less worry for sure now!

I just purchased a 2024 F-Type last month. Will I need to worry about the cooling system on this ? It has the v-eight engine.

The cooling pipes were redesigned for MY2018 so yours has the redesigned (albeit plastic) pipes. It should not be a concern.
