When I picked up mine, they'd missed the fact that the driver's door keyless entry sensor didn't work. The sales guy always opened it with the fob so didn't notice but I'd got used to using the handle button on my XKR and old habits .... They fitted a new module pretty quickly while I waited, though.

Unfortunately there have been many many cases reported where dealers have not followed the list so one should not trust it. It can also be a good checklist to use after buying the car though.

My experience was that they don't check - I took the list along with me and I found the tyres were below minimum for a used approved car - TBF i pointed it out and got a new set of rears.

BTW i think that list is intended for US market?

The same list is used in Europe too, at least in the sales ads. :) None of the three Jags I've bought as approved from different German Jag dealers has been entirely checked according to the list... always found small stuff the dealers had to rectify after the purchase.
