Re: Calling all 2.0 owners

Mine definitely does. It’s much louder on tick over and at revs. And when the engine is cold, and pushing more fuel into the cylinder it’s really loud at idle.

Re: Exhaust valve

Hi Adrian, 4 days isn’t great, at least mine lasted about 10days before it stopped working! Good luck.

Re: Exhaust valve

It makes a big difference on my 2.0l on tick over. Mine did the same as yours, dealer said it had corroded, the dealer replaced the exhaust (can’t just replace valve) and now it works fine... get it to your dealer.

Re: Why the silly prices?

So the answer is really simple. And working in the industry, I maybe able to shed light on this. It’s all about listings online... If a competitor dealer lists a car at £37,999, then you price yours at £37,998 so that you are top of the list. So the first dealer then changes their price to £37,996 a...

Re: 2.0 Exhaust and Power Loss

So the dealer is going to take a quick look next week. Have tried V Power (but not Momentum yet) and I think its more of a fault. When you press the loud button there isn't much of a change in exhaust tone, so I guess that the valve must have a problem. We will see, and I hop that's what is causing ...

2.0 Exhaust and Power Loss

Hi Folks, My 2.0 litre F Type is now a grand 3 months old with 4750 miles on the clock. The exhaust is noticeably quieter then when I first got it, it pops and bangs way less, and it doesn't feel anywhere near as powerful. My dealer cant look at it until April (or rather they don't have a loan car u...

Re: In Control Apps - 2.0 F Type

Had the same issue with my new F Type 2.0. Speak to your dealer, mine had to have the car for a day to get it to work. You have got a SIM card in the car though? There are so many posts about the incontrol app, all sorts of advice, best thing is to push it back to the dealer to resolve. Good luck, I...
