Just picked up my I Pace

I really like the way it looks TBH but appreciate that is entirely subjective. The iPad works brilliantly by the way, far better then the infotainment in the Jag.

To be fair, beating the Jaguar infotainment isn’t much of an accolade

You don't really need to use the inbuilt Jaguar infotainment - just use Android Auto (or CarPlay). Works very nicely.

... when it decides to connect.
I can get almost half way to work sometimes before the infotainment in the i pace has booted up, then it’s 50/50 if car play works

Anyway, to get it back on track.... an update...

I’m now at 7,500 miles, still think the cars great to drive.
Love the size of it, range is a bit disappointing, it’s 200 miles basically.
Rear visibility is a bit compromised and the lack of rear wiper a shame
The premium textile is still looking great and it’s lovely to sit on.
Infotainment is poor, but it’s been covered extensively before.
The lag on the rear view camera is frustrating, I’ve bumped into a tree because of it.
No issues to report and it’s booked in for 4 software updates at the dealer on 4th February which should apparently help the range.

200 miles in this weather though isnt bad is it?

How often do you drive and what kind of drive?

It’s not bad, I guess just after my previous BEV I was expecting better as the quoted range was higher, but in fact it’s 45 miles worse

I’ve got a couple of semi regular trips, maybe 4 or 5 times a year, to relatives which are 90 miles each way so with a bit of driving around at their end it’s just on the edge whereas in previous car I was ok.

Perhaps just an unlucky circumstance

The H264 update makes a difference to the range. I was getting on a run over Christmas 200+ post H264.

The 19C update has made a difference to the infotainment speed.

That’s very encouraging, I presume these are the dealer updates mine is in for.

Shame they don’t do these one OTA

Seems very odd. Once you have 19C you do get OTA updates.

What’s odd is that my XF has had 19c since early last year and it’s been update OTA a couple of times since. I would have thought that all i Pace would already have it.

I have had some OTA updates to the nav system but as I understand it they won’t do core updates OTA

What is 19c and can I tell if I’ve got it?

REALIST123 said:

The 19c, which of course would appear instead of 18B in your example may only be available with the ICTPro, not the basic ICT, though I understand all cars have had the full system for a while now. I wouldn’t think the I Pace ever had the basic system.

There are OTA updates for all parts of the system except maps which you can download on line and install from a USB flash. Maps are updated every 3 months.

Just had a look, it seems my InControl Pro is V S19.B and the vehicle software is V14.2

So maps don’t update ? How do you update via USB?

You register on line with the same details as your car is registered, go to maps and services. (Just search ‘how do I update maps Jaguar’, there’s info with a link.)

If there’s an update you download it to a data stick. It’s a big file, can take a while.

Once it’s done take data stick to car and follow instructions you’ll be given on web site. Basically stick into USB port press a few buttons and it’s done in 5/10 min.

A little clumsy but this is only for map updates. Everything else is OTA.

My SatNav was pretty average 2 years ago. It’s has the odd blip but seems to get better with the updates.

Quite a long while to update the maps :-)

The latest updates need a 64Gb memory stick (the upgrades are about 33Gb..) and take several hours to download, even on a 200Mb cable connection!

However, once they are on the memory stick, as REALIST123 said, it takes a lot less time to update the car!

If I was being cynical, I'd suspect someone at JLR keeps forgetting to feed the white mice on the server treadmill at their end

So I just logged into my InControl account online and created an account on the Nav which is I believe a shell for a Here accoutn, put my VIN in and it tells me I have a connected car so I just need to log in on the car?

I cant find anywhere to download them?

What am I missing?

You should now have an account using your email address, and with a password?

Follow this link and log in:

https://www.jaguar.here.com/index.php

Then select "maps & services" from the list across the top (on a PC, anyway!)

Scroll down, and you should have buttons to click to download the latest version.

The first time you download updates, it will ask you to download a downloader, if you see what I mean, and then follow the instructions.

Good luck!

So it says there are no vehicles associated with my account, asks me to input the VIN, so I do, it finds the car, I confirm it and I get a page telling me I have a connected car and to login in the car?

Update - so I eventually battled through , got car attached to my account, downloaded the downloaded, then the 33gb file and did my maps update.

Since then the car has been in for the H264 update which has massively improved the system and more importantly gained me about 45 miles of range.




Only downside is now for some reason I can’t switch on mobile data from the Ubigi sim in the car to get traffic, it just says mobile data unavailable.

But overall a huge step on
