It's mostly applicable to other Jags that are older. There is a minor part in AC compressor that can wear out. Probably not your issue but could ask an SA about it.
The bulletin issued is specifically for the F Pace and possibly others but it came up when I put my VIN number in.It's mostly applicable to other Jags that are older. There is a minor part in AC compressor that can wear out. Probably not your issue but could ask an SA about it.
Thanks, that may at least be a temporary fix.Also, the recirculate button is only timed if you press it briefly. If you press and hold, it latches recirculate on until you manually change it.
Yes. I lower the thermostat setting, and keep reactivating the recycle option.For those of us that make good use of our AC during these hot days do you find at some point when the AC reaches the proper cabin temperature that the fan slows down as it should but at some point the cabin starts to feel humid? I was told to put the AC on recirculate. But, some of the great minds at Jaguar have determined that recirculate should be timed. And.......the humidity returns and at some point it goes away during its own automatic recycle process.
Is anyone experiencing a similar situation?
There is a TOPIx bulletin JTB00380NAS3 "Inadequate A/C Performance". Is there anyone who has access to this bulletin??
There is a TOPIx bulletin JTB00380NAS3 "Inadequate A/C Performance" that has the fix, See below:Yes. I lower the thermostat setting, and keep reactivating the recycle option.
Is there any additional info that you can see or do we have to ask VZX to check?There is a TOPIx bulletin JTB00380NAS3 "Inadequate A/C Performance" that has the fix, See below:Yes. I lower the thermostat setting, and keep reactivating the recycle option.

So if you VIN is higher in number there is a fix.
In addition see Peter's temporary fix which is to press and hold the recirc button. Again I think that is a temporary fix. You should not have to keep lowering the temperature to get rid of humidity in the vehicle.
Tell your dealer to order the parts for the fix.
Here you go... https://topix.jaguar.jlrext.com/topix/vehicle/indexStupid question: Where can we put in our VIN numbers to check on things? :O Is Topix a website that we can go to? I'm just about to google it but thought I would ask here to remind myself about it as well. Thanks in advance.
The bulletin was issued on July 15th so I doubt they did it.My VIN is higher but for the week I have had the vehicle it has been hot in Toronto sometimes high of 85F more or less and even with the sunroof cover retracted no problem with the a/c. Maybe the fix was done during the PDI.
I have tried every combination to keep the cabin from getting too humid. I am very familiar with the different functions of the AC system. The latest thing I've learned is by holding the recirc. button as opposed to just tapping it is supposed to keep it on recirculaton. The problem still exists, so the bulletin above hopefully cure the issue for me and others that have the same problem.Recycle mode is really just meant to cool down the car faster or to avoid a stink bomb. The longer you run that mode, the more humid the inside air gets which can cause your windows to fog up.
Technically it's more efficient because it cools already cooled down air (to a point), but if it's so hot outside that you want to run it in that mode all the time, probably means the car can't keep up to demand.
What if your VIN is lower in number?There is a TOPIx bulletin JTB00380NAS3 "Inadequate A/C Performance" that has the fix, See below:
