  I had my Apple CarPlay fitted by cartronics about 2 years ago , it was still £1600 then , they couldn’t enable the AUX on a 2014 XKR 5.0 Supercharged , so we have connected it via the MOST system (fibre optic) , this gives you one more switch in the glovebox where the usb lead is, it’s very easy to use , either plug it in or Bluetooth it. For me it was worth every penny to bring such a gorgeous car up-to date. 👍

  Any easy solution to add either aux and usb or such carplay on the earlier 2008 XKR please? any help would be much appreciated.

  @TiffLangham18 күн бұрын

  I thought the earlier cars had an AUX input already, and a 30-pin and USB under the armrest. Not my area of expertise I’m afraid but you can always speak to a car audio place to find a solution, or get an FM adaptor or Bluetooth adaptor thingy if you want a quick plug and play solution👍🏼

  No need for AUX with a new kit available as it uses a MOST connection, you need to remove the infotainment system and fit an extra board but it's really straightforward no soldering needed. You can switch between AA or Carplay and steering buttons for volume or tracks. I paid less than £300. Also just got AAWireless working with it and Torque Pro so now have dials for temps like oil, coolant and gearbox

  @mariopizzamanmario85633 ай бұрын

  Yours has 18.5 HP and should do 105 km/h (about 65). The main thing that goes wrong is the timing. They can be set static timing with a 12v checklight (which is easy to make). Then ther is centrifugal advance, which means the faster the engine runs the more timing you should get. Sometimes this mechanism gets stuck and then this means the car doesn't like to rev. You need the Haynes Manual which explains it all, it is simple to do and really makes it run well. BTW I have a 650cc with some Abarth stuff and that does 145kmh... (it is a bit scary), which is 90mph. Yours is a 500F same as here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pHiM0ZSdYbu1j6Q.html

  Your microphone records very low bass sounds when you record your video. When listening to your video with speakers or headphones, these sounds are disturbing. And with my speakers, our neighbours can also hear that you are driving your car. The lowest sounds below 50Hz can be filtered with a suitable filter, e.g. in a video editing program. Nice videos though. Had a Fiat Cope 20VT 350Hp 400Nm for 20 years. Now an XJ X350 V8 and aiming at an XK 5.0 NA. Driving in tunnels is fun but believe me that some day you say "Been there done that". There are more sounds in silence. Took me 40 years to get there.

  Thanks for the feedback, I’m just using GoPro mics while this is a hobby, but as we grow (and if we make any money out of it), it will all be reinvested into new mics and Final Cut Pro etc.

• 
  @spalmgre91674 ай бұрын

  Ok, thanks for your answer. I don't think that you need any new gear as your sound is ok. The deep base is actually an outcome of having a capable mic and recording setup. But it is a standard procedure in video and sound editing to cut low base as these come from wind or like in your case the road noise. So I would not be surprised if you could do this with the programs that you are using. Google how to and you will probably find some advice. Nice videos so keep on doing.
