    Excellent information. Also, I just changed the battery in my fob using your tutorial. There wasn't even a chance of failure. Thank you.

    Hi Shane and good evening not sure about the tow bar ☺️ but I have a question your jaguar xfr 100 what other than the badge inside the car proves it's a 100 as i have one and just thought I'd ask cheers Paul

      Needs must i’m afraid, either that or get rid of the car.
      The 100’had black headlining, black trim around the external windows, B&W stereo as standard, piano black panels, Draco wheels, and came in 3 colours, black, white or dark grey.

    Hey Shane, was there anything further on the Viezu ZF 6HP remap? I remember in your previous video you said it was only available for the ZF 8HP but they were 'thinking about it'... I was also wondering what the actual benefit was of the 8hp over the 6 for the XFR? (beyond 2 more gears)

    • @69racer69
      @69racer69  2 года назад

      Hey Henry, yeah they have been working on the 6 speed map, I haven’t heard from them for a while about it actually so I don’t know how they have got on with it.
      The 8 speed is better for fuel economy, gears 1-4 are exactly the same so there is no difference in accelerating performance. But it can handle more torque then the 6 speed, but I haven’t had any issues with the 6 speed.

      Tow Trust - removable
      I have another video of the un boxing and another with the fitting. Quite easy to fit. Make sure you buy the dedicated wiring loom, not the universal loom. You’ll spend hours with a universal lion, the dedicated lion is so much easier to fit

      anything really mate, maybe diff oil change or a video of the gearbox oil being changed as that is often overlooked.
      ive had my 2014 xfr since december last year and i absolutely love it,its been faultless other than a flickering rear cluster which was replaced under warranty.
      its off to wraptor next weekend for carbon mirror caps,full de-chrome,rear light tint and 20mm spacers all round. ive also just sourced a second hand set of spires rear boxes.
      my warranty runs out in 3 months so i need to decide what im doing with the car, either keep the warranty going or have no warranty and have it tuned to 600bhp.
      regards

      The main thing you can do is get a good map. Won’t get massive gains in too power but you’ll get the most out of the normally aspirated engine and drivability with throttle response etc.
      Try Euro Toys and see if you can get a a Viezu map through them.

      It’s detachable and you can’t see it when it’s not in use. Means I can use it when I need to pull my kart to a race, better then giving up my car.
