I will write an introduction later. I have written two fairly comprehensive ones and have inadvertently touched the "back" button on my browser and losing all that I have written. I will likely compose something using a word processor and post when complete.

limo, welcome to the site. From what I have seen, you are fitting in here nicely. So, cruise around, see what you can find and go from there. I think you will find lots of friendly faces here and lots of information to help you enjoy your kitty.

Welcome to the forum limo' yeah it gets annoying when that happens. Use different TABS and juggle between them, or copy all your text from time to time.

(now, if only I always followed my own advice, I'd be too good to be true

Look forward to your more detailed intro', with pics and a sound track of course.

That's a rough deal. You guys need photos, video, and what else? The color of my socks? I can tell you that they always match. I have a specific protocol that makes it nearly impossible to mismatch my socks.

Yes, I read the forum guidelines. It looks to be consistent with other forums that I'm on except for the 10 post requirement. I have a lot to offer, but I do not see many Jaguars. As I may have said, I have the ability to generate a first key for any Jaguar. Of course, I can also make duplicates. I spend a fair amount of time diagnosing and resolving automotive electronic issues. In an effort to get my post count up, perhaps I can entertain some questions about electronics or keys, locks, and locking systems if there is a need for this type of information.

You folks seem to be friendly. I appreciate that. I may work on that introduction. My frustration has diminished by 84%.

It looks like I already set my signature, and I don't think I can edit. I mean no dis-respect.

Limo, you can always change your signature. You get into your control panel (User CP) and from there you can alter the signature.

Hello Limo and welcome to jaguarforums.com. I know that you are anxious to get started and we are anxious to meet you and talk about your car. We have a baseline / criteria that must be met before full access can be granted. Please enjoy the forum and be patient once the baseline has been satisfied full access will be granted. Please continue to post and accept my welcome to the forum.

Oh one other thing you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for.

Please take a moment and read the information provided to you explaining the rules. Be patient and enjoy the site.

Hi Gus,

I will enter information about the car that I am in now. It can change quite often; I will try to keep it updated. I do not need any information about my car at the moment, but thank you.

I accept your welcome, thank you.

I am not particularly anxious to get started or get full access or what have you. As I have said, I do not see many Jaguars. I simply came upon this site as I was searching something with "Jaguar" as a search key. I proceeded to stumble upon the post regarding the material that the mechanical portion of a Jaguar key is made of. As an automotive locksmith, I happen to have that knowledge and thought I'd reply. Of course, I had to join in order to reply, but it was easy.

Regarding my other posts, I set my email preferences to notify me of activity on certain threads and have posted as I thought would be appropriate.

I don't think that I will be able to enter my vehicle information prior to posting this message. When I do, I will enter information about the car that I drive to and from work at this moment. We have many cars, trucks, and heavy equipment, so I will only list the one that I intend to take home today. So that everyone knows now, I am in a 1997 Ford Taurus with a 3.0L SOHC engine that is fired by petrol.

Welcome to the site limoboy1. There's plenty to be learned here, and plenty you can offer I'm sure. There are numerous questions regarding remote key fobs etc. posted from time to time. Enjoy, and please jump in with advice.
