Joe No never sold it, seems nobody wanted to buy it. Still sat in a corner of the dinning room. I could never figure out how the hell to use it, so bought an iCarsoft PRO, of which I am nowhere near at a level of learner in understanding how to use it. Cheers, John

Hi some codes stay logged some dont and it depends what code reader you use the icarsoft should read them ok did you sell you laptop/jaguar ids/sdd setup in the end cheers Joe

Joe Many thanks for the information. I thought (obviously wrongly) that once a code had been raised that it stayed there in the memory until it was erased manually, via the OBD2 connection. I always carry a hand reader but do not make a point of carrying my iCarsoft PRO, maybe I should carry the iCarsoft as well. Best Wishes and Regards, John

hi need to get codes read, ideally with Jaguar ids/sdd, or a Icarsoft LR V2, ideally when the fault is present, once you turn ignition off and on it will clear could be something as simple as a abs sensor, gearbox relies on the abs sensors to shift also turning at a junction may be a sign of abs fault, as you turn the wheels spin at different speeds and the abs kicks in, hence why some time when you pull out of a junction and floor it, it just pulls real slow and once the steering straightens up, she goes like a good un cheers Joe

I want to start changing the oil and filter every year on our 2.0D Ingenium (2017) XF rather than every 21k as per the schedule. When I asked the main dealer if they could do it, they looked shocked. On the other hand, I was even more shocked when I was quoted £253 for an oil and filter change! So at that price I want to have a go myself. I'd be grateful for any advice on whether there any things i need to know before changing the oil on a 2.0 Ingenium engine? (For example, in our other car, a Volvo S60 (to be changed for a Jag when the right one comes along) you need to tell the car computer the oil has been changed (using Volvo proprietary software) or it throws up lots of error messages!) Many thanks in advance
