LR-Retrofit supplies and installs the genuine Advanced Tow Assist system for compatible Land Rover and Jaguar vehicles. You gain precise trailer reversing control through your vehicle’s existing camera and infotainment architecture. Our team completes every retrofit with JLR-approved diagnostic tools and original factory software. This upgrade suits owners who tow caravans, trailers, boats, or horseboxes and want factory-level reversing confidence.
What Is Advanced Tow Assist?
Advanced Tow Assist is a Land Rover driver assistance feature that transforms trailer reversing. The system uses the vehicle’s surround camera array and steering inputs to project a predicted trailer path on the touchscreen. You then guide the trailer with the rotary controller or steering wheel while the vehicle manages the necessary steering corrections. This approach reduces the stress of tight manoeuvres, driveways, and boat ramps.
Our retrofit activates this feature on vehicles that require the original software activation, when the correct camera and towing hardware exists. We verify every module before programming and confirm the software revision against JLR Topix data.
How the Retrofit Works
We begin with a full vehicle diagnostic scan. This confirms your VIN, existing modules, camera configuration, and trailer electrics. If your vehicle meets the hardware requirements, we proceed with the genuine software activation.
Our technicians update the relevant control modules, load the Advanced Tow Assist application, and apply the correct calibration files. The process follows Land Rover service procedures and uses the manufacturer’s diagnostic interface. After programming, we run a road test and functional validation to confirm the system operates correctly.

Benefits of Advanced Tow Assist
You control the trailer direction while the vehicle handles the reverse steering. The touchscreen displays the trailer’s predicted path, so you can avoid obstacles before they become a problem. This active guidance improves confidence when you reverse into storage spaces, campsites, or loading bays.
Advanced Tow Assist also reduces the need for a second person to guide you. You see the trailer angle and target line directly on the screen. This saves time and prevents the miscommunication that often occurs during manual spotting.
The system integrates with your existing trailer profiles and towing settings. You keep the cabin original and free from aftermarket modules.
