Software Update Available V20C

[Jason B]

Just had a prompt in my MY2018 F-Type (shows a downward pointing area in the top left corner of the display) that a software update is available to V20C. Haven't downloaded yet, but is 50MB in size. (currently has V19B)

Well V20C installed itself and had a message it would run following the next engine shutdown. Having checked tonight, it is running V20C, but all the extra functions (swipe right from main screen) are not correct for my car. It is showing things like Browser, Apple Car Play, i-Dynamic and a greyed out 4x4 tile. Some of the missing functions such as Ambient Lighting can be restored using a custom screen, but looks like the dealer will have to reset the software. Is due in next Thursday for it's annual service, so will have to see what they say.

I had the same update and only had a quick look but see same tiles such as apple car play, browser, seats and the 4x4 tile. What should i be looking for that is missing?

Mine is a MY18 with the physical buttons

Thanks

Had another check and seems like ambient lighting and live missing which can be added manually to a custome screen. The new functions in particular apple carplay just say not available when pressed? What is the point of adding them then!! Should i be getting the dealer to reset or will i get added fucntions shortly?

Did you plug your iPhone in before pressing Carplay?

Yes via the usb next to the sim card

I went to my Jaguar dealer today (car is due in tomorrow for service and MOT) so they could do a quick road test to locate a rattle. They are going to contact Jaguar today over the software update (I have the same issues as ayrejc) and whether there are any bulletins over this, but the dealer thought it may be only a certain group of F-Types (possibly MY18 with the 7" touchscreen) that may be affected with the wrong extra features. Also only a few people could be affected so far as not everyone uses a SIM card. They think they might have to manually revert the software back to 19C and then await an update from Jaguar on V20C.
