scan tool and code reader (Atlantic British) question
 
Any of you guys got one of these? What will it do and what won't it do (I need something to clear service engine codes and 3 Amigos). click link below

Justa a code scanner. Won't do the Amigos. See http://rswsolutions.com/index.php?op...d=56&Itemid=55 for one device.

Also consider the Ultra Gauge as a code reader scanner (also won't do Amigos, but makes a great dash gauge for most everything else). UltraGauge Automotive Information Center and OBDII Scan Tool

the rswsolutions unit won't reset service engine light though?

I don't have a D2, so have not had that demon. May have to use a regular reader for that, but you should be able to do a search on here for that Amigo device. Moving up the hill is the Hawkeye, which does both and more, in the $500 - $600 range. See Hawkeye Diagnostic Tool for Land Rovers - D.A.P.

You are in a ton of luck because you own a DII, you my lucky friend need two, thats right, count them, TWO scanners, one for the engine codes and yet another for the ABS codes.
So you can spend the $85 plus shipping on the one that AB sells and then another $200 on the ABS Amigo.
Or you can spend $80 delivered for the Ultra-Gauge and another $200 on the ABS Amigo.
I have the Ultra-Gauge and I LOVE IT!!
Or you can go all out and buy the Hawkeye which will do everything.

I have the iCarsoft i930 (about 100 dollars) which is a full scanner and resets all systems (even srs and abs) and is land rover specific. But I found a newer one that looks even better... "iCarsoft LR II for LandRover" on Amazon. $165.

i also use the iCarsoft i930.

Does the iCarsoft LR II turn off the sls or still need a hawkeye for that?

the iCarsoft LR II looks pretty nice though.
