Australia 2013 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 SE Fuji White

I had a standard non Bluetooth IID for my L320. Anyway when I bought my L494 I got on to IID Diagnostics for a new code for the L494. Anyway to cut a long story short they no longer support the non Bluetooth version but they gave me a full credit on my old one against the cost of a new Bluetooth IID. If you look on their website it costs net $canadian about 300 for the exchange. You have to mail them your old unit.

hello all

I am also interested in some recommendations about diagnostic tools.
what I am looking for: cooling temperature and DPF informations (and if possible: oil temperature)

does the GAP IID tool cover this?

I checked on their website. the BT version costs 681$ CAD.
IMHO, it is a lot of money for some informations to check.
any other suggestions?

Thank you
cheers Range Rover Sport HST D350

I have a Blue Tooth Dongle connected to Motoscan. Gives me all the info I require. Can clear fault codes, read fault codes only misses some of the RR specific codes, so basically I can work out most issues and decide if I need dealer support. M16 SVD8 ,4.4 HSE with a few extras, Sold R50 , Wife SQ5 , BMW R1200GSW.

@IRBails
which parameters (live data) do you read with the dongle?

background of my question: I would like to check the real temperature in my daily driving routes so that I know after how many kilometers the engine is warm (DPF..)
I didn't find out after which engine temperature the DPF regeneration process could start

thanks for the feedback. I also found the Foxwell during my searches in the internet.
I have seen that with this tool you can start the DPF regen, check the suspension etc.
which live data values can you check during driving? (coolant temperature, oil temperature etc.) Range Rover Sport HST D350

I think so, too. It would fit my requiremenents (a lot of live data with a phone app), but it is quite expensive just to check some values.. Smile Range Rover Sport HST D350

sure, especially when your currency is trading at 17 vs the pound!!!

But I have two LRs, and we often drive in very rural/remote areas, so it's essential for me. Not to mention that this allows me to remap my Puma as well Thumbs Up --

does someone use "dash command" or "torque" and can give a feedback?

A dongle is cheap, buy one and then try all the different Apps until you find one you like! M16 SVD8 ,4.4 HSE with a few extras, Sold R50 , Wife SQ5 , BMW R1200GSW.
