I'd like the power to skip the dealership when it comes to things like TPS setup and resets in general and also having a deal-level tool would just be useful in general. Can someone explain the pieces and parts that may be involved to do this (aside from the laptop of course)? I'm chomping at the bit to be self-sufficient. Just in my nature.

Thanks!

 

you can get Chinese jaguar ids clone machine's on e bay was looking at one for a while

But my scantool xl does the job I need it for used it on my old xjr6 and now X350 V8 4.2 comes in handy for other cars as well took it on holiday with me to Melbourne in the wife's jeep gc have reset codes twice on the way down

actually finding the reason for the code is another thing lol

 

All the VCMs I've seen seem to be "VCM II" and don't seem to work with the x300 year models from what I can tell.

 

The easiest/cheapest way for you would be an old WDS.

By the way, the phrase was originally 'Champing at the bit' but seems to have been *******ized.

Thanks for the verbiage lesson! I'm a stickler for proper terminology. I can't seem to find. N old wds anywhere and the one guy I talked to by chance said he could build me a renewed wds but for 3000 usd....3200 out the door.

Seems high.

 

I find them on eBay often.
I payed $400 + shipping for a complete Ford setup.
A bunch of us on the forum have the Jaguar software.

I also bought a used PTU for $200 and can be used with the same docking station if the other one 'crashes' Windows 98 (as it often does).

The internet is full of deals if you keep looking.

Thanks! I've been looking like crazy...that's for sure. I like being self-sufficient and that would be the tool to help make that happen.
