    Thanks for your much appreciated comments Tonymccandless A also hope that my presence and interaction with members of this board ultimately results in mutual benefits for everyone. I personally believe that most dealerships now could not care less about the P38 Model, and really do not...

    Hiya Pat (paddocks1967) Guess what !!! The chap i asked you to send your EAS Kicker lite finally got to test it today and he tells me it works like a charm. In fact he does not really want to send it back to me but is now interested to resell them at shows and stuff ;-) So i am guessing that...

    Hooded claw, you obviously need to just get more sex. SpudH it's now already in the pipe. watch out for it in an upgrade any time now. You know some of our best modifications come from me reading the thoughts and ideas others openly put on boards such as this. We can tailor what we produce...

    Diagnostic Hardware what to buy.

    Spadgr. Re your first question: The Extreme and Nano are the same, as in they are both designed to run exclusively off a PC, and you have to have one to set them up to begin with and enter the licence codes we supply to activate the respective software. The Extreme however has an...

    Sorry chap, It is there, but i must have missed it and only mentally added it to my seemingly massive and almost equally endless "to do" list. Personally i blame Barbie. meaningless to you i know, so i will try to clue you up a bit so you can enjoy the joke a bit too. If you have been...

    Woogoo Yea, i know you were thinking of having a go and made a post to that effect. And you probably even have more programming experience than i did and still do. C, in particular, is a really great asset, requiring a very low level knowledge and understanding. And i have nothing but the...

    Interesting question, you seem surprised. I had written a long historical addition to my post which i cut off for brevity, but if you would like to read that, i will post it. In the meantime, in response to your specific question. Up until 2001, i empolyed only a young assistant called Luke...

    It has rarely been my priviledge to read such educated, thoughtful and well put comments as i have read on this thread. Not only about our equipment and it's capabilities in comparison to others, but also about me, and i must say, i whole heartedly agree with all of it. My warmest thanks to...

    L322 Entertainment System Dead !!!!

    Bob I dunno what garage you used or what Diagnostic tool they used, but i am sorry to say, it sure sounds like total crap to me. In fifteen years of specialising in deleloping Land Rover equipment i have never come across such a stupid and non sensical faults being provided. It's like the...

    L322 Entertainment System Dead !!!!

    From 2005, the entire infotainment system in the L322 uses the later MOST (Media Oriented System Transport) Fibre optic bus. Same as on Disco 3 and Range Rover sports. In fact exactly the same ECU's programmed with exactly the same software. It is quite advanced and can scare those never...

    RFC - Diagnostic Software

    I am sorry, yea yea yea, i am the corporate monster and all, but on reading this post, i really really really just totally fail to understand what problem anyone would have in respect of difficulties interfacing a PC to a Disco 2, P38, L322 or even the latest LR CAN bus vehicles. Has no one...

    Thanks Pat I try my best, but given i have to try and squeeze about 35 hours work into each 24 hour day, it can take a day or so to respond. The schematic for all wiring to the OBDII connector for a P38 is commonly availiable on Rave disks which many have access to. As stated by PM, if you...

    peice of ****

    Consider yourself lucky chap. On the RRS and Disco 3 there is no external lock you can put a key in visible at all. However on the passenger door under the small fixed part of the handle and totally out of sight to the average owner there is a very small slot just big enough so you can push a...

    Hiya daves.angel@btinternet.com If you were not so much already at the end of your tether, as your posts title suggests, and if time and cost were something you had to spare for even just one of your cars, i would willingly and happily agree with all previous posters advice that trying to get...
