    NANOCOM - Yes or No?

    That’s all it does, but it does it well.

    When I was tuning TD5s I explored this option and it worked very well.

    The Nanocom etc reads the entire eprom and writes it all back taking longer.

    The Rovacom unit was even better, with additional Capabilities and nanocom wasn’t around back then.

    Then there’s the direct to board connection which enables further recovery of the eprom content.

    Nanocom - No... Faultmate instead

    Hello,

    Well, went through the years of heartache trying to find a scanner to talk with my various green ovals and jags.
    Finally had to make a decision after a local mechanic said he had tried the 6 scanners in his shop and couldn't talk to my 2001 P38.
    Went on a search of the interweb, this and UK forums and decided, for better or worse, to go with the Faultmate MSV-2.
    I've had it for 3 days, have just received my TUP codes and trying to work out how to install them into the unit.
    Early days but I hope I've made the correct decision.
    Any help with the Faultmate would be greatly appreciated and would welcome anyone with a nanocom (unlocked for P38) to come and compare.
    Cheers,
    Clem.

    As is the case with any new technology that you acquire.
