IIDTool 2.18 for D3

[Epic pooh]

Has arrived. Seems to have quite a lot of new features such as (limited) Ccf editing, more service features (epb, clear adaptive learning engine ecu & trans ecu) & some degree of ecu reprogramming (new ecu installation) + lots more that I have yet to digest.

Seems I can also add clock to the centre display on my 2005 model (like in 2008 onwards). Anyone done this yet ?

I'm surprised the D3 version arrived so long after the D4 version.

I think the CCF edit is a work in progress; the number of things that can be edited has increased from the original 2.18 release.

I'd speculate they've been focussing on new business from the newer and more advanced vehicle (and trying to staff the associated programming overheads). Those of us with older vehicles and existing tools, can just wait to catch up as we're already a captive market !

Also just noticed that I can apparently control the tool from a windows laptop (as mine is the non-BT version) and at some point they're going to release a mac version of the software.

Agree the ccf editing is a work in progress (as is the replacement ecu programming I'd say), but my two most desired ccf edits - nav on the move and clock in the information screen - are available so I'm a happy camper (or will be when I get around to doing the clock update and presupposing that it works for my very early build vehicle). Wonder what else they'll have in store for us ccf edit wise ?!

I did the fuel consumption update (default to +7%, took it back to 0%). May need to fine tune that setting, as I need to run a full tank or two through before adjusting again.

Unfortunately writing to the CCF wipes all previous consumption figures, and the software update (for the hesitation problem) completely resets the figures (as well as wipes the adaptive shift memory), so I'm having to start from yet another full tank cycle.

Any recommendations on the best and cheapest way to purchase the IID TOOL ?
I had a look on the British Britpart site but could only see the original IID TOOL, the was nothing about the newer BT version

Does this device also allow you to enable the 4x4 info screen? Does anyone know?

I'd be keen to do that.
