Re: 400 Sport - Is It Just a Noisy V6?
OK, Many years ago I started my working life as a mechanic/technician and going way back when this is probably the noisiest V6 ive ever come across. Its on start-up and idle with the active exhaust off now the 6 hour dynamic setting has been removed by the dealer it always starts non dynamic mode. T...

400 Sport - Is It Just a Noisy V6?
Just a general observation and hopefully nothing to worry about🤔 I've had the 400 for a little over a year and it's covered 5000 miles and I've noticed that on start-up and idle the engine is noisyish compared to the XKR and XK I had previously, now obviously I recognise these are V8's but I would s...

Re: What's Up with Dynamic Mode
That would be a perfect solution except if the vehicle is under warranty and the dealer refuses to do any warranty repairs unless the updates are applied, this was implied in the dealers response to my email, they stated they had to do the update so I didn’t incur the cost of repairs that were carri...

Re: What's Up with Dynamic Mode
But is it even legal?
Having bought and as owners shouldn’t we be asked and grant permission for functions/features to be updated or removed, EE should st least be given the choice
Shouldn’t we?

Re: What's Up with Dynamic Mode
OK, so after further investigation I have a sneaking suspicion the the Dealer has updated my 2018 model year vehicle with 2019 software as the 2019 Dynamic Mode functionality differs from that of a 2018 model as indicated in the user guide. So if this is the case I am even more hacked of that the de...
