Updates to 2012 interior
While researching used/certified XJ S/C's online, I came across a couple updates to the interior. I see that they added a "Phone" and "Nav" button right under the navigation screen and also moved the "Seat" button under the disc slot. I wonder if anyone else has noticed any changes to the 2012 cars. I see not all 2012's have this update. I wonder what the 2013 changes/updates would be?

Are you actually changing out the console button assembly (adding the phone and nav buttons and moving the seat button) since this isn't just a software update? Does this apply to 2011 models as well?

The update consists of the new hard buttons and software update.
2012 models built december build forward also get a new glass screen, but the glass screen is not being retrofitted, only the new hard buttons and software.

Not sure I would want it done on my 2011 anyway--not worth dismantling the center stack to change out the buttons for the small benefit received IMHO. I certainly wouldn't pay for it. That's usually when gremlins start to appear after the dealer monkeys around with the wiring.
I have to agree. Falls under, "if its not broke don't fix it". Every other car I've ever had has gotten a case of the creaks and rattles after any front panel work. Humpty dumpty often doesn't always go back together. All due respect to the jag techs here.

Got my car back with the updates. The hardware change is helpful, with separate physical buttons for Phone, Nav and Seats. However, the software update is a major improvement. The entire menu and display system is changed. Buttons and graphics are much easier to see and use. System feels a bit faster. There are now more user controlled options. The entire system is much more user friendly. Probably still not on par with Audi, but a significant improvement over the old system. This is the update I was hoping to get when I decided to wait for a 2012 model. It feels like a new car.
BTW, Park Place service was great. I called to make an appointment last night. They scheduled me in this morning. All parts were available and the car was ready for pick up this afternoon.
However, I am a little miffed that they didn't contact me about this update. I had to find out about it on this forum. Thanks again to Jagger11!
