Hello, Has anyone any experience of the X431 iDiag code reader?

I've been reading up on the Hawkeye and the i920? most generally say both are Good.

The Hawkeye unit will reprogram fobs to the ECU - is that correct?

For most LR vehicles, the Nanocom or Faultmate are better. Not heard of the X432 iDiag code reader but the name implies it just reads codes rather than clearing them.
You don't say which LR vehicle you have, many are not OBD compliant.

Thank you for the reply. I have a '98 FL1 petrol. From what I've gleaned of the web it seems to read and clear codes, give live data...

X431 does read and clear dtc's, you can view live data and log with them, programming and activation is possible for some of the car brands, heavily copied tool by the Chinese, better tools out there for the money
