Thread: landrover scanners

I bought an Autophix for my new Defender but haven’t had to use it yet.

Disco 2 I assume.

Someone is selling their Nanocom, they said it was used on a L320, I thought Nanocom was a D2 thing.

Nanocom for Sale.

With the right cable and software it also does L319 D3/4, L320 and possibly others.
There is a South African company that has just released a TD5 specific OBD tool for around $250.

TD5SPY - Home Page

The TD5Spy thing is interesting. It doesn’t have the capabilities of a Nanocom, but for onboard diagnostics similar to the Gap tool, i.e. Bluetooth etc could be very helpful. I wonder if they could develop it to allow for uploading tunes and programming keys, and the other things you need a Nanocom for. Trouble is that the software is proprietary. The lack of true OBDII compatibility is a bugbear of the D2 and P38. And it’s difficult to see anyone putting in the effort for a 25 year old car, sadly.

I was sort of hoping to find a 10 yo. nanocom or similar for a 10 yo. price.
there are some nancoms in spain that seem cheap..
The South African tool seems nice but seems to only cover the ECU .. SRS and BCU aren't mentioned.
ill keep searching and I find an abundant source ill post

Usually 10 year old nanocoms still sell for 60- 75% of new price.

Maybe a bit less, but often you will need to buy a new unlock.

Nanocom arent locked, you just need a different cable and software package if changing to a different vehicle series , ie D2 to D3/4 which is an expensive option.
