Really when you think about it the GAP IID is crazy cheap. 3 hours of labor at most dealers will be what this cost you. Want to feel even better call and ask your local dealer how much to program 2 additional keys.
That is exactly what I was telling my wife when she thought I had gone crazy purchasing a $512 tool. 3 hours at the dealer at $140 plus per hour about seals the deal on purchase price. I just ordered the suggested key off Amazon.
I just cannot get over how quick it calibrated this car after hours upon hours of attempts with another calibration software. And the email support was phenomenal!!
If all goes well with my key programming next week I'll be way, way ahead on this purchase. I mean,,, I'm already way ahead in time savings. If only I could get back the last 2 months worth of wasted time. But you guys tried to tell me.
Anyone on the fence, the quicker you buy the iid tool the happier you will be.
Hello Robert. I have same exact issue. Same wheel. Rsw software
[QUOTE=robrike;682119]
Well, the iid tool arrived Monday. I got it activated that night and ran a code scan Tuesday and found various odd insignificant ones. I attempted a guided calibration and all was well till I was on the last wheel, the left rear. It was showing a value of 248 and would not rise at all. I emailed Patrick but it was after 5 so I didn't hear back till today. He had me try a Manual calibration on the left rear, then a guided again. Long story short, that did the trick. I have driven 20 miles at speeds at 75mph and not a single drop to the stops or even error codes on the suspension. I am so happy it is finally fixed. 2 months of this and finally, problem solved. I should have done this long ago.
For those like me dreading the $512 outlay, don't dread. Find the money and start using the iid tool. It does so many things!! I dare say a trip to the dealer for this issue would have seen a new compressor, valve blocks and 2 bags with no fix likely unless they happened to get it calibrated properly while throwing parts at it.
My next stop is to get 2 replacement keys and program them. This is worth its weight in gold. Pricey but well worth it.
Thanks for all the suggestions, only sorry I didn't acquire this tool earlier. My other program left me uncalibrated in a bad way. This cleared it all up. I knew I was on the proper path today after my manual calibration then guided when my 4x4 screen showed all wheels where they belonged.
I can't say enough good things about Gap and Patrick at their tech support. Glad I cam finally close this thread. Hopefully I won't be back next week after bragging.

I have same exact issue. Running rsw software too. Trying to avoid buying gap... How did you fix it with gap?

Hi Robert! Awaiting arrival of my IID Tool. Returned by iCarsoft computer to upgrade. I got the same faults over the weekend on a 05 LR3. Got the red wagon twice. Cleared the faults twice, and they have not returned, even after two days of long, high speed driving.
I am likely going to replace both front height sensors (RF was the one that faulted). However, have been wondering if, in your travels through this issue, you encountered others who had phantom faults or faults that simply did not return. I topped speeds well over 75 numerous times, after the initial two drops, without incident.
