Re: Jaguar Remote (InControl) and Alexa

Howdy! Sorry for the down time with the Alexa skill. I had to go through a bit of a rebranding exercise, as Amazon asked me to not use a trademarked name. I was always intending to change the name, so this was a good thing to do. The skill should now be back on the store. If you had the skill enable...

Re: Jaguar Remote (InControl) and Alexa

I'm a front end web / user interface developer. I also looked through the code... nice job. As it's an Alexa integration there's no need for a front end user interface. 😶 There is actually a VERY small front end implementation, just to handle the first sign on when you link the skill, but it's not ...

Re: Jaguar Remote (InControl) and Alexa

I'm also a software engineer, working at an autonomous vehicle company, what a cool project and great to engage people on the forum in this way. I had a look through your code on GitHub, it's interesting to see the interface :D Sorry for the ridiculously slow reply! The code isn't perfect, but then...

Re: Jaguar Remote (InControl) and Alexa

Grrrr. I’m the admin and I still can’t get it to work. Super annoying. You can DM me your email (the one tied to Alexa, not jaguar remote) and I can manually add you. I’ll try to fix the sign up in the interim.

Jaguar Remote (InControl) and Alexa

Hi all, I am a senior software engineer at Microsoft. I got really bored of the slow response time of the Jaguar Remote (the new and old app). I really wanted to be able to just ask Alexa to start the car, tell me my fuel levels etc...So, over the Christmas break, I got to understanding how the Jagu...

Re: Jacking points and axle stands

For absolute clarity in the future, I swung by the Jag dealership and they confirmed this is where to place the stands.

Re: Jacking points and axle stands

Chris, I use ramps then put axle stands under indicated jacking points. Your axle stand is not a recommend place. Sorry pic is upside down. Regard fez Hey, Strange, as quite a number of people have said that my stand position looks good, including someone who works for Jag! I love those ramps thoug...

Jacking points and axle stands

Hey all,

I did have a good look around on this and other Jag forums and everyone keeps referring to a diagram that is actually of an XF not the F-Type. Can someone just thumbs up me if this looks right for the front side axle stand location? Thanks!
