A word of warning:
Be careful flashing the modules.
I got carried away playing and I updated the transfer case control module and it lost its calibration.

Potentially a good product let down by lack of willingness to answer tech questions and old outdated firmware / software.

Given there have been 4-5 firmware updates in the last month which support up to MY2012 models it seems a little odd to claim the software/firmware is old/outdated.Quote:

If you buy any diagnostic tool expecting the manufacturer to walk you through solving vehicle problems - unless you are buying something like TestbookT4 or Land Rover's IDS - you will be sorely disappointed.

After checking 4xforgold's post history, it has become apparent that he has no hands on experience with the Nanocom Canbus module, and his comments appear to be based on internet research he carried out in October 2013 - some 2 months prior to the initial release of the Canbus support in December 2013. I would recommend you treat his comments as being "unreliable".
Does the nanocom have a a support page or forum at BBS. I have the Faultmate but the support page only seems to cover that product and I see nothing about the nanocom. Does it not exist or is is separate and tied to your username.

But I think you have to have a nanocom to get a login.
Yes , looks like you cant see anything until you register with your nanocom id.Quote:

Mine arrived in December for the D3. And only basic functions worked but immediately an update was posted to increase functionality.
Another update has just been release but withdrawn due bug report.
I would offer that the canbus nanocom for D3 has been released a little before,all the software is in order and they are getting it up ,to full functionality as time goes by, thus quite a bit of effort seems to be going towards it.
The functions that are operating work fine, faults, fault resets, suspension ht adjust, tight tolerance mode, service reset.
Real,time info I can't get to work just yet but don't have the latest update in.
No where near as user friendly or comprehensive yet as the td5 software but there is lots of software updates and options from the genesis website avail, another thing to learn!!
Still a must have in my opinion and it is a work in progress.
Cheers.
