Hello All,
I have a Nanocom for my Disco II and have now purchased a LR4 and wanted to get a diagnostic tool for it. I was leaning towards the Gap IID tool, but learned that I can unlock the code for the LR4 on the Nanocom and use it.

Is the Gap IID Tool the one to get?
Even if I already have the Nanocom?
Is there anyone that owns both and would suggest one over the other?
Is the Gap tool preferable because of the phone/tablet interface?
Are there things that one can do and not the other?

I have done some research here, on the web in general, and on the manufacturer's websites, but haven't come up with a definitive answer. Any help is appreciative.

 

I’m pretty sure you just buy the unlock software from Blackboxsolutions and use your existing Nanocom

 

That's my understanding too.

But I wanted to know if there was some actual or percieved value in the Gap IID that makes it desirable over Nanocom other than the phone/tablet bluetooth interface. If that's the only difference than I'll save my $500 and spend it on the next thing to break on either of the two trucks.

 

I’m not up on the LR4, but for my D2 and P38 the Nanocom is the gold standard.
