In my opinion by far the best system is to use the Jaguar SDD (v130) software and dedicated adapter like a mongoose.

However, this can be a bit daunting to use if you have never used it before.
You will need to set this up on a Windows XP pc or laptop that has no internet connection and that re-sets the date each time it is turned on.
There are virtual machine images available for free on-line that do all this for you.
You will also need a stabilised power supply connected to the battery that is powerful enough to run all the cars electrics without allowing the battery voltage to drop. As if the battery voltage drops too low the programming will be interrupted and may cause damage to the cars control units.

You will be able to pull codes with the iCarsoft and reset codes however if you need to "exercise" the ABS unit, such as bleeding it no luck with that.

Jlr SDD will enable you to do that..

If all else fails, follow the workshop manual (free download) / see existing threads (use Search) but easily the workshop manual is best.
