Great video, I've had the car a week now, loving life in my first Jag. I figured some of these out...the hard way! Wish i saw this first! Have you been able to do a video about the sim card/data usage? This would be really helpful as I've just installed a three mobile data sim. Thanks again.
Great cars, had a 2016 XER Sport traded it in for the 2020 Reims which is stunning, both cars were amazing to drive and never had anything break on them, still got the Reims but am upgrading to an F-Type hopefully next year. Sad to see Jaguar go all electric and dump their customers, it will be the end of them for sure so grab one while you can is my advice, way better than the competition.
They are a superb car, ive had 2 and will be picking a new one at the end of the week, but sadly will be my last as they've stopped production to turn over production to making solely electric models, a big mistake in my mind, JAGS SHOULD BE COMBUSTION ENGINED ONLY. Save electric for milk floats & vacuum cleaners.!
I thought I had them all, but you educated me on the global window opening. Very useful now we're heading into summer, thank you. The one thing I miss is a global setting to disable stop/start. It's just bloody irritating. The petrol engines do not shut off and restart without quite a thunk. It's meant to be a Jag, not a taxi. I imagine the diesels are worse. And it saves me nothing. It's usually on for 10s at some lights. Not my favourite feature and seemingly one you can disable permanently by unplugging a lead in the boot.
Look for the button with the "A" encircled by an arrow, press it and the stop/start function will turn off (jump to 8:13 on the video to see where it's located).You have to press it every time you start your XE. If yours is older it will be at the same area where the driving mode selector is, under the gearshift puck.
Can you please help me out, I can bring mirrors in from inside car,somehow when I lucked the car from outside mirrors do not coming in anymore!!! Any tips? Thanks
@@philscars Thanks for that, bud. I do the same, but there's always a chance of scratching/chipping the hood that way. I know other Jags have a "service mode" and I was asking if the XE also has one? A Google search has been unsuccessful so far(?).
@@philscars Actually, I managed to solve it (page 198 of the manual - "Service setting"): With the key fob in the car 1) Press the Start Button without pressing the brake; (i.e. don't start the engine) and immediately off again. 2) Push the wiper stalk down, hold it and press the start button again (on). - The wipers will move to the top of their arc (UP) and stay there. 3) Press the start button again to turn off the car and return the wipers to their bottom position. Note: leaving the wipers in the UP position, for an extended time, may drain your battery.
Thanks for the video. Those yellow rear seat fold down knobs are a bad design. My arms are too short to reach the back of the seats. The releases are better on my Ford Fiesta.
I have only used it about 5 times over the winter, but must admit, it worked perfectly each time, I also have a Discovery Sport with the same feature and that also has been working fine. what error are you getting?
I gave up on the InControl app eventually. It's a subscription to keep it now my XE is 3 years old and it was very unreliable. In the end it stopped completely and I was told I needed a software update and just gave up. In the UK it was an unnecessary feature to be able to control my car from my phone. Jag gave me £60 for the hassle, which was nice of them.
There is no Such thing as the 2021 Jaguar Xe. The Jaguar XE was discontinued in 2020, along with the XJ ,What you are referring to is 2020 Jaguar XE R Dynamic P300.
Slightly confused about all this mirror locking. When the remote was used to open and close the window, the mirrors activated on both commands. So, does the XE have electric windows on locking and unlocking the the car externally or not? If not, then it would be a pretty poor 'money saving design decision' for Jag to intentionally not install remote control entry and exit, folding mirrors on a 'supposedly prestige' branded car. Which has got to be a joke 'solely at the purchaser's expense!. Perhaps they need to go and ask Fiat how they got round such a 'challenging' electronic issue!.
I just bought my Jaguar and thanks to you I’ve learned more by watching you then by reading my quick manual
Glad to be of help!!
Jaguar XE looks much better than any of the competition for sure!!.
it is a lovely looking car, I must admit! Do you own one?
They are exceptional to drive too! Handling and engine response is amazing. Especially, the 25t (2.0l turbo) is really very quick!
Giulia comes close as well, both look better than the Germans for sure.
Own a 2lD 180. Unless it had timing chain issues saved in time, it is one of the best car I had the chance to own. Alway proud driving it ❤
In my Firenze red XE 25t . I get looks from all the mercs and bmw boys.
Firenze red with black trim and rims
Drooling beauty

Good choice, I also have an FType SVR, amazing car!
Great video, very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
These tips are really helpful... thankyou
My pleasure 😊
I've had mine for 4 years and still learning things. (have less than 15,000 kms)
Even after all the doom and gloom stories about the XE, I so much want one and is to be my next car.
I loved ours, it was a very nice car!
How long did you have it? Besides general maintenance, did you have any issues?
@@freefallin3693 just over 3 years, never had 1 thing go wrong with it!

Glad the video was helpful!, the stop start doesn’t really bother me to be honest…

Intro stops/content begins at 1:26
standard youtube video?
Excellent. Can't wait to own one.
Yes they a nice car!
Can you please help me out, I can bring mirrors in from inside car,somehow when I lucked the car from outside mirrors do not coming in anymore!!! Any tips? Thanks
Will the start/stop through the app work without having to pay for it? I have a 2019 xe 25t, dont tnink I have most of these options
Very helpful
Glad you enjoyed it!
My Side mirror wont fold, even using this technique, any other tips pls?
Is your car fitted with folding mirrors?
Is there a maximum range for remote start or does it just use 4G?
Im assuming its 4G as its through the app
I used to start mine when in work about 600 yards away,after 3 year warranty you have to pay to keep phone app working with car
Thank you! How do you clean the windscreen below the wipers?
I usually just lift the wiper a little and rub underneath!
@@philscars Thanks for that, bud. I do the same, but there's always a chance of scratching/chipping the hood that way.

07:07 you think Jaguar could have put some trim around there and made it look a bit better. It's a £40,000 car after all.
I know!
It's the only thing I'm mildly embarrassed about with my XE!
My jaguar doesn’t have the global close option to select only the open one :s why is that?
Are you in USA? I think for safety reasons you can't have it to close automatically!
@@philscars I am in USA my 2015 xf did work now I have a 2020 XE S :( terrible
Very useful and I’ve got an F Pace!
Thanks!

Too true!
Does anyone know how to take the headrest off on xe rsport 2015
Value, love it
its a great car!!
@@philscars Yes I have it , your video was helpful
Do you find the remote climate control on your phone to be extremely unreliable? I've never gotten mine to work it just keeps giving me an error
I have only used it about 5 times over the winter, but must admit, it worked perfectly each time, I also have a Discovery Sport with the same feature and that also has been working fine. what error are you getting?
Mine works great here in the usa. Works every time I love it
Mine works 70% of the time, I live in Canada.

where do I say 2021?
Replying 2 yrs later. Xe was discontinued in the US in 2020 and some others. But not all countries

not sure what you mean by mirror locking, on my car the mirrors unfold on unlock and fold on lock.
Vauxhall Vectra VXR stay the same
I don't know what you are saying!!
All the same as the XF.
