Works perfect.
The gas/brake reset does not work for the 2017 TDV6, and will never work according to JLR.

I does reset it to 16K, like from factory new, but anyone with the broken crank shaft knows, we change it between 5-8k miles.

I will say this, when the computer detect to much oil dilution, and pops up to change before my 8K, I change it right away.

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks for that info @gmfain ! Would you purchase the tool again or go for a different version? Yes, definitely have been sticking to the 5-8K interval since I've owned mine. Any other features you wish you had on that specific tool?

 

@mtaylo32


Exact one I ordered.

 

I would purchase it again.

The GAP tool will do more, but it also cost more and is your VIN specific.

I work on family member cars so, this works for me.

 

@gmfain Good to know. Makes sense for my situation as well as my wife drives a Volvo. Thanks for making my mind up!

 

I do the 6k intervals on my D5 but I have not reset my oil light in about 30k would that cause any issues or could I just let it ride. If it's just a reminder ill let it ride I do my oil changes religiously

 

You can let it ride. Although you will not get the early service message because of oil dilution. That said, 6K oil changes, your golden.

I'm trying to imagine a system which detects oil quality/dilution directly. I'm assuming that the ECM throws up a "change oil now" warning when it has monitored a number of factors (regens, oil quantity, trip lengths, I'm guessing) and "decided" it's time for a change. Like above mine threw out a service reminder 550 miles after I had changed the oil and reset the indicator! Talk about a false positive.

 

With the warning still active on your dash does it effect drive quality? I just changed mine less than 100 miles, but still have a "850 miles to service" message on the dash. Wondering if its ok to just leave it for the time being until I get the OBDII.
