When Gap Diagnostics releases the IIDTool for the Defender, will we be able to do these upgrades ourselves?

Also have BMW coding experience... I split time between NJ and MA as well, so am local...

So from what I understand, you can sign up for free here for a Topix account, then pay by day for usage. BMW does this with ISTA online as well...

Correct me if im wrong, i believe topix requires windows 10 and or hardware with certain requirements. Some sellers of the pathfinder claim a special software/hardware combo is necessary.

I spoke with Jeff at Sarek today. The ability to unlock the added features is no longer possible on the 2023 models. They are working on a solution and will provide an update if and when they find one. They are still able to provide this service, however, on the 2020-2022 defenders.

We at JLR Active can do 2023 models but only if you drive to Southern California. Or arrange a group buy of at least 6k or 6 cars plus travel expenses.
