Similar issues I think when trying to add a vehicle to an existing account. Got one car on there but for the second it just says 'please enter a valid VIN' and we've had both cars for a while now.

Downloading the maps update for the F-Type which takes a long time and also hoping it won't take that long to update the car!

I think I had the valid VIN issue to begin with. Unfortunately can't remember what I did to resolve.

It might have been that the car was still attached to the previous owners profile and it was sorted out when I asked my local dealership to reset the InControl details

So after a few days of pulling my hair out I have finally updated the map! It started with me thinking I would get a usb that it would definitely fit on so in comes the 1TB usbโ€ฆ. It took 2 x days to format and then after that it said formatting failedโ€ฆ. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ
When I got the 64mb usb it formatted it through Rufus in about 5 seconds! 3 hours to download the map then about 10 mins to upload to car!
Finally thereโ€ฆ. ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‚๐Ÿบ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿบ

64 millibits is no size at all! I think you meant 64GB. ;)

Ok I am totally stuck with this!!!! I have registered my car with My Jaguar, which recognises the car and me. It lists my correct VIN and car details but... as soon as I go into the InControl section to update maps it states it does not have a vehicle for me. It then asks me to add a VIN. I go through this loop add the VIN it then takes me to a route planning screen. I try to go back yo maps and it again tells me I have no vehicle registered.....argh. I cannot get it to recognise I have a vehicle that it does recognise on the jaguar owners site. I have tried resetting passwords and going through the loop several times. This is so annoying. what am i doing wrong???

I think you should wait a day or two for everything to work through the system - folks have previously said they were able to get it working after some time had elapsed. Apologies if time has already elapsed.

Thanks SCM and Geeboy. waiting a couple of days seems to have done the trick. On maps it says 1 year and 3 year subscription? what does this mean?

Just whatever subscription you have. New cars come with 3 year subscription and most just buy 1 year subscriptions afterwards if you want to use the Jag nav system.
