Default Can bus sniffing - will pay for help

Hi, I want to inspect and inject can bus messages coming from Land Rover's servers. If anyone knows how to do this and is willing to help, I will pay for your time. Happy to discuss further privately via email. release_fad.9t@icloud.com

Just curious here, what is the intent of such a request and how would your "inspect and inject" benefit Land Rover owners?

The only thing you might then thinking about is telematics-related functions ... Remote start, remote unlock, software updates, vehicle status updates, etc. Right? I don’t think anything else comes from JLR servers. Everything else is internal to the car itself or non connected.

Since you said it’s from JLR servers.

Raises alot of eyebrows asking this question. Not saying you have ill intent but what on earth are you trying to do?

intent is convenience. I assure you, entirely non nefarious.

I would like control of my car sans JLR's servers, data acquisition, etc.

Question: why don't you just unplug the TCU ... or the antenna ? Yes, you gonna get a bunch of errors, but at least is something reversible if it goes real bad.
