FAQ
Jaguar F-Type CarPlay: questions people ask.
Answers for F-Type owners. Something else? Message us on WhatsApp — we usually reply in under 5 minutes.
Ask on WhatsAppWhat did you fit on the 2016–2019 F-Type in your case study?
Our wireless CarPlay box. It sits behind the InControl Touch unit and puts CarPlay or Android Auto on the original screen, driven by touch, with the phone connecting wirelessly when you start the car. Every Jaguar menu, the climate page and the Meridian sound stay as they were, and the car goes back to standard if the box is removed. A matching box fits 2013–2016 cars with the earlier 8-inch screen.
Does the 2020 facelift F-Type need anything for CarPlay?
No box: CarPlay and Android Auto are standard on facelift cars, wired through the USB port. What most owners want is wireless, and a small adapter does that in half an hour. On cars imported from outside Europe we also check the navigation region and maps, and we sort pairing faults where a phone refuses to connect.
How much does CarPlay cost on a Jaguar F-Type?
It depends on the generation. X152 (2013–2019): from €750; Facelift X152 (2020–2024): from €250. Fitting is done at our Dublin 11 workshop — send the reg and we confirm the exact price before you book.
Which Jaguar F-Type years can have CarPlay?
X152, built 2013–2019 (Jaguar 8-inch touchscreen on 2013–2016 cars, InControl Touch from 2016 and InControl Touch Pro 10-inch from 2018; CarPlay only as a late option on some Touch Pro cars): Wireless CarPlay box behind the touchscreen, driven by touch, the kit in our 2016–2019 F-Type case; the Jaguar menus stay and you switch with a long press. Facelift X152, built 2020–2024 (InControl Touch Pro 10-inch with CarPlay and Android Auto standard, wired): Factory CarPlay and Android Auto, wired; a wireless adapter makes the phone connect on its own, and we set up region and maps on imported cars.
How long does CarPlay take on a Jaguar F-Type?
X152: two to four hours; Facelift X152: about an hour. You can wait at the workshop or drop the F-Type in the morning and collect it the same day.
What stays factory when you fit CarPlay on a Jaguar F-Type?
X152: the Jaguar 8-inch touchscreen on 2013–2016 cars, InControl Touch from 2016 and InControl Touch Pro 10-inch from 2018; CarPlay only as a late option on some Touch Pro cars and its controls stay; the box sits behind the trim and is switched from the factory buttons. Facelift X152: CarPlay is factory-fitted, so we only add to it.
Do I need to book CarPlay for my Jaguar F-Type, and is there a warranty?
Yes — send the reg or the year and generation (X152 and Facelift) on WhatsApp or the form below, and we confirm the route, the price and the next free slot. The work carries a one-year warranty, and the workshop is in Rosemount Business Park, Dublin 11, Monday to Saturday.
