Thank you for video. I have had the 2 replacement fobs for 2 years. My original ones finally gave up the ghost they were totally unusable. So today after watching this video I swopped both over. If I can do it anyone can. Thanks.
You’re welcome glad I could help!
Just changed the key on my XJL using this video! Had to make exactly the same cut, video was great thanks man!!
You’re welcome
I dont know if u even read these comments anymore but I changed my own key out based off your video and it works great and I have the red fob casing. Beautiful, thanks for the tutorial my guy.
I read and respond to every comment that I get even the haters I’m glad I could help thank you.
I just bought Jaguar XJL 5.0 supercharged, and really thank you for showing us how its done, I have been searching how to do the upgrade.
That’s why I’m here 😊
Intro is perfect! Love the feed in of X-J-Luxury. Awesome!
Thank you for the amazing support!
I loved this video and have watched it again about a year apart. Such a great informative video delivered with passion. I can’t believe there aren’t more views to this. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words!
I like the new key. Thank you for uploading these videos. Your one of the few people that make videos on the Xj and I really appreciate it! also thanks for the oil change video I was wondering how to do that.
You’re very welcome! More to come.
Just did this to my XJL Supercharged, MUCH APPRECIATED MAN!! Thank you🙏🏽
You’re welcome man
Thanks a bunch for posting. Appreciate the video. I had the exact same issue and couldn’t figure out how to get to the motherboard. Followed your video and got the new fob setup just fine. Thanks again.
You are very welcome!
Just purchased a 2017 portfolio,but only had one key. Thanks for your videos to help me along
Glad I could help
Dude, lifesaver! Worked perfectly. Best video ever!
Glad I could help!
I sincerely hope to buy a hugely depreciated XJ in 2023 as soon as the leasing for my BMW 3 series expires! But I'm purchasing a 2016 post restyling model! Now it costs something like 35k euros and I already got the gold key fob for it 👍😎 keep up the good work! Have a nice weekend 😊
Keep me updated in 2023 when you buy it! Thanks for the support!
Buy a 2016+ model year
@@XJLuxury yeah sure! Thanks to you for keeping us informed about your XJ! I'm going to get a 2016 model with the 3 litre V6 diesel with 300 HP! Here in Italy it's the most sensible choice! Also, you can get it for 35k euros at the moment, so......... I'll be lucky to get one for a very cheap price!!
Thank you so so so much for this! My key clasp is broken so it keeps flapping open, but now I know it can be done! P.s love your car in white! (Mines black)
I am very glad I could help! That’s the whole reason why I make these videos for people like you! I love this car in black too ;)
I just did the change, unfortunately my old key shell broke while opening it, but the new key isn't that bad. Can't wait for the zinc cover 😍
I’m glad you’re happy!
Thanks great video.
Thank you
Good video make the job very easy to do
Thank you!
I love this car, I wish you'd make more vids! Perhaps you should try to fix some of your car's problems like the seat plastic trim etc
More videos have been recorded and planned. Keep an eye out for them and thanks!
Merci pour le tutoriel 😊
✋Present! Always always awesome videos!!!
That’s funny when I posted this video I had you in mind and was wondering if you were going to comment haha
@@XJLuxury IM SO HAPPY!
The replacement key is the same as the XF. I think the circuit board itself on the XJ key is a slightly different shape, which is why it didn't fit. I used the aftermarket key like yours for my XF and it was/ is a perfect fit. Either way, its a good mod - great stuff
Wow very interesting thank you for that information.
Great stuff I have the same problem
Nice
Great vid
Thanks!
True
Did you guys get a low battery on remote indicator on the dash? When I swap batteries to original fob the indication is off.
I'm getting a jag xjl next month
Hey man it's been ages till you upload a video.. so I've asked a question in your previous video that how reliable XJ engine is after long period of time and major issue can occur in long period of time. Btw nice video!!
Hey man I’m so sorry it’s just the coronavirus has really taken a toll on my life and especially when it comes to videos. I will be making a video soon however I recorded a lot of videos before the virus that I’m going to upload first then I will do that maintenance video so please hang in tight man
@@XJLuxury not an issue bud hope you and your family are okay in this pandemic and yeah coronavirus has really taken a toll in everyone's life😄
Thank you!
Hey, How to upgrade the jaguar xj x351 model lights to the new L blade Lights. Hope you make a new video about that.
Keep an eye out over the next few days 😉
Hi, does the same change fit with old XF key to new key XF?
I imagine it would.
I used to have a 15' xjl. It got totaled but I still have 1 key fob. Do you know if I can reprogram my 15' fob for my current xjl which is a 16'?
Yes that is possible at the dealer it may cost a lot of money so what you need to do is try and contact a independent locksmith or go to a mechanic shop and see if they have a dealer level scan tool that can program the key for you
You lucked out by getting a 2016 because that’s when they redesigned the headlights
@@XJLuxury truly. Absolutely LOVE the design!!!!
🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥
😊
I actually just trimmed the circuit board until it fit. The part that needs to be trimmed doesn't have any runs on it. I just used an exacto knife, but could have used my dremel instead.
You could do it that way, however, I prefer cutting the plastic key instead.
@@XJLuxury I did it way before this video came out, and was going by guys on the Jaguar forum who had done it, and had posted their method and results. If I had to do it again, I probably would have just used my dremel to cut the plastic casing. Was just pointing out that unless someone is clumsy, they aren't likely to actually mess up the circuit board.
Lookin at getting a 2016-17 jag XJ portfolio but i am scared because of all the people who talk down on the reliability but i notice most people complaining dont even own one looking on advice if its a good idea to get one as i live in north america
So far my XJL had been very reliable. I will be making a reliability video soon on my car
I was fortunate enough to find a 2013, British Racing Green XJL 5.0. Portfolio. One owner, no accidents, all service records, with only 21500 miles. I’ve had a lot of newer luxury and sports cars, and this Leaper is my favorite ever. Like my favorite jeans. I just FIT it. You must consider that, being a partially bespoke exotic, you will have issues. And it won’t be cheap. But my car, Boss, literally leaps when you floor it. Leave all the white Mercedes alone. Be original. Go for it - just keep looking for a good one like I did. I took months to find exactly what i wanted, and I wouldn’t change a thing.
who else had to pee-pee watching and listening to the (fishtank pump)???
Lol
@@XJLuxury Howdy Lux im XJamesLSC on Jagforums. im a new Jag owner but highly technologically eeevovled Gyro repairipist for 20 ish yrs.

I thought he was joking at first. Personally I like the newer key look more.
No the older key looks way better
@@XJLuxury well I guess it's down to preference. The older key does look much more classy.
