Default 04 X-type & 05 XJL

Good afternoon everyone.
I just (Dec 2012) ended my Daily driver relationships with Range Rovers and made the switch to a 2005 XJL for my wife and a 2004 X-type Sport for me. I have not had to do anything to my wife's car, but drive it. The X-type has been a work in progress from new front brakes, tires, t-case & diff service, rear sway bar bushings and I finally just got my wheels back from being refinished. It's blk on blk with lightwood interior and Navi. We love british autos and have been extremely pleased with our first Jags thus far. I still cant believe that I can fillup at the pump for less than $90. I've been driving rovers for the last 6 years. I will post pics once I figure out how to do so.

I also want to thank all of you for the help. Even before becoming a member here, This site has been extremely helpful for DIY projects that I have been able to take on. Look forward to future communications.

Vehicles added! Thanks for the warm welcome & pointing me in the right direction, fellas. Excited about my jag experiences this far and Im hoping they continue to grow.

I know there are many posts about it, but am still trying to get clarification on adding iPhone controls to navi unit with Bluetooth calling capabilities...has anyone been able to find one solution w/o having to add 2-3 different devices? Thanks for everything.

Guillermo,

Sig looking good.

If you can't find the answer to the BlueTooth issue in previous threads, I suggest you post your question on the X350 tech section to get responses from members with the same model.
