    thanks.. it's different to me though you have a HDMI port, we don't. it's a different part/ part number Sad apparently JLR r looking into it. i hoper they get their arse on gear and get this sorted. surely it's can't be that big an issue to have usb ports replaced or whatever unit is required added to the system.

    Achichon, my Belgian dealer told me it can not be done as it’s built on the chassis, so could only be done in the factory, don’t know if it’s true.
    I really don’t understand why JLR didn’t give all the lux versions the full connectivity here in Europe, or all cars whatsoever and why they don’t not mention it. They even advertise here for all the connectivity which they don’t want to provide in real life, not reallly what I would call a fair company. This is clearly a choice they made to keep their ‘other market’ customers uninformed.
    Same with the oil dilution, this as well they never admit or mentioned (not to my knowledge at least), so I can only conclude JLR prefer their customers to be uninformed and/or use as (guinea) pigs.

    Right, my issue is that apparently our telecomms company haven't applied for a license that our government need to issue them in order to have the go ahead to give out sims for cars bla bla bla for e it sound like a load of BS but hey who am i to complain...

    but what i don't understand is why are usb slots different? why can't they just leave the same for everyone it's bad enough them removed the hdmi, sim and wifi ffs. it's quite annoying tbh lets just hope they come up with a solution soon

    So, can anyone explain why ACP and AA is working on my VW and Audi here in Albania... it’s purely JLR who doesn’t do right and doesn’t want to inform its local customers correctly, that’s why, to me, it became a rip off company by now

    OK, so I got the Smartphone pack today on MY18 under warranty thanks to Listers of Droitwich. Big-up to Dan who knows his stuff, great customer experience! Thumbs Up

    This was the second attempt the dealer had at getting the Smartphone pack install, as the first time they said LR had not made it clear what to do, but had updated me to S18C

    It was explained to me that LR haven't been very clear with all dealers on what needs to be done to code this into the car. The dealer today told me technicians are trying to update the ICM module but it's the ICS module that needs the update. Hence why the first time they tried the ICM module said no update after S18C was installed. They put a call into to support and booked be back in and got the Smartphone pack on in a few hours today.

    Really impressed with car play just a shame that Google maps doesn't interact with the LED instrument cluster.

    I still fail to see why in this day and age there should be mass confusion among dealers over the Smartphone pack.

    Used the heated steering wheel for the first time today Whistle Cool

    All done. ACP is great and I can finally now play music from my phone via the media ports Thumbs Up

    Waze and Google Maps seem to work well. Buttons on screen work too to search locations etc so not sure why SinTov's doesn't. There are permissions you need to accept on the phone with some apps so maybe turn wake the phone and then open the apps and see if that is it?

    iPlayer Radio for one won't work if you are not signed into your BBC account.

    ACP is new to me, but please tel me why I’d want my iPhone 7+ to need it.

    I currently have full phone functionality, I like the LR SatNav and my music from the phone plays seamlessly over Bluetooth. What am I missing?

    The only irritating phone issue I’ve encountered is that my phone doesn’t beep to alert me to a WhatsApp whilst I am driving. I wouldn’t want to read whilst driving, but I’d pull over to read them if I knew they were there. That’s the only thing I don’t like.

    So what are the ACP benefits and would it require the phone always being plugged into a USB?
