Customer reached out to me today for updates to his 2021 P400 X Special Edition All Black Defender. His requests were: 1. Global window close and global window open and sunroof open and close on his key fob! 2. High beams and fog lights at the same time. (Not allowed in North America. ) 3. Dynamic Mode with configurable dynamics comfort versus aggressive suspension & throttle response. 4. James Bond 007 Splash Screen. 5. Tow Assist 2(Customer already had adaptive cruise control which I could have added, and the advanced off road package which I could have added.) 6. Wifi Hotspot. Mission accomplished! Customer left after 30 minutes happy with full functionality! If you happen to be in the California area, I cover central and Southern California and Garrett Prochnow covers San Diego! Please text me at 323-237-9773 if you would like to activate Adaptive Cruise Control and any of the above features. It's only a software update and it's less than an hour of your time to come our houses and you can enjoy the fresh ocean breezes! Cheers! Mark

Are you able to update modules to latest software? Example: trans tune update from 2020 to 2023?

Remote activations... What's stopping you from doing them now? If I have one of these are you able to code?

Too many risks of frying your systems. JLR doesn’t make a very stable software and hardware architecture. It really can only be done in person. Unfortunately I won't take on the liability of remote programming. We're happy to have you visit Los Angeles. But that's it. Sorry.

Met Garrett this weekend in SD. That dude is legit! He helped me out with a few things and was a lot of fun to talk to. Thanks again for all of the help!

I have been reading on the new full size Range forums that the new Pivi update -- for the new FFRR -- has enabled for some people "walk up unlock" which means the doors unlock when you approach the truck. hmmmm.... wonder if this could happen on L663.
