However you ever want to buy it back off them you will also need a new laptop because they will have deregistered yours. Deregistration is permanent and non-reversible.


That clarifies things perfectly.

I actually want one of these, but I'm not prepared to pay £150 for one. I did set up an eBay search to email me if one becomes available - but the risk I buy a unit that's "full" and then be forced to pay the manufacturer some unspecified amount to use it again, and the fact that I often swap PCs (I used to get a new laptop every 3-6 months) put me off.
Early market research showed that some clubs were thinking of buying one to lend it out to dozens of members like a library book. This is the use case which we wanted to discourage. I don't think that we ever told anyone that they can't resell what is after all their property.

The other options would be to lock to VIN numbers, or to ask a fee per ECU which we know that legitimate customers dislike.

If you legitimately buy one of these and run into a problem and have a reasonable explanation for what happened (such as an ebay listing number) we will wipe it and basically it will cost you the postage.

If you lent it to your mates and it needs wiping then there will be an admin charge and a warning not to do that.

The reason that they haven't come up on ebay is that once people have these they don't want to let them go.

I've just mailed you Phil.

If you can get the mail back to me, I'll order one straight away.
(I have to leave for work in an hour).

Can I suggest you put a link in your sig (or even a bit of an advert) to make it easier?

Unfortunately although I can take payment from you, I cannot actually post anything until the post offices open after new year.

Ah that's awkward, as I was hoping to have a play in the hols.
I may as well wait then.
Cheers :-)

To get to 100% I would need a visit from someone with an auto 75/ZT so that I can put it on my T4 for a side by side comparison.

We discovered that the reading being shown was actually for coolant temperature and not for ATF and we fixed this in pscan.eu version 0411. This was because this reading was reverse engineered from a certain (very expensive) professional tool, and they had gotten it wrong.

If you are using the tool to test ATF temperature please make sure that you are using the latest software, at least version 0411 and please make sure that you are reading ATF temp and not coolant temp.
That's what you get for using a Bosch KTS

By the way it is they got it wrong

Yes, thank you Brian, I was just about to make the same point.

Phil; it is obvious from your posts that you can write and punctuate to a very high standard. You, of all people, don't need to use American slang. Please spare us!

Simon
