Although he hasn't yet 

PM sent. Thanks.

Just the one code:

B1231-7A - lower appendage failure - floppy dysfunctional 

[Doctor Gollum]

Is that factory or dealer fitted?

A limp dick?

Couldn't happen to a nicer chap! 

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

He,s had a good run though.

I'm proud to say I've yet to need any of those little blue pills........unlike some.

Don't knock it unless you've tried it!

Cars, like all computer filled gubbins, are only as good as the programmers... Some are in the same office, some work for Apple

Trouble with modern software development methodologies mean that all new software is inherently more unfinished and less tested than that of a decade ago, which itself was worse than a decade before.

That is the same for PCs/Macs, home technology devices, and embedded stuff used in cars etc.

It's the central locking system again......had the same problem with my previous XFR.

The annoying double beep and the doors wont lock with either key, or the door button. Of course the problem, being a devious little f*ucker, decides to pick and choose when it reveals itself so as to create maximum embarrassment. Five times in a day, or not at all for a week. Who knows.

I might have posted before that the crap door latches that JLR use even worse that what Vauxhall used on the Omega.

I've now changed 5 of the little ficcers on my Jaaaaagggg

I've booked her in again for 31st March at 3PM. I'm leaving the Tata overnight so they can finally fix the problem. The codes that Mark supplied has helped and they are going to order new parts for the C/L system in advance. It should finally get fixed.

Replacement car to drive home in will be either a Fiat 500 or a Yaris.......wow.

Last time it was a 3.0 2017 300 BHP derv XF in a fetching shade od Caesium Blue.

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

It seems to be the driver door that is the problem. After the annoying 'double beep' the other 3 doors, boot/bonnet all remain locked.

[Rangie]

The central locking system for Jaguar/Land Rover must be a fantastic little earner for them this has been documented for years, I've had all mine replaced now on the Range Rover + the bonnet alarm sensor which is another known problem , the indi I use has assured me that the ones he has fitted will not fail he gave up using the original ones about 5 years ago .

[Doctor Gollum]

Any visit to the dealer is a potential new car sale... Even if reliability reputation/perception is poor.
