To use Faultmate, you really need a laptop with Vehicle Explorer, with that it really is plug and play, just be careful never to unplug the Faultmate from the OBD connector unless it's idle. If the Faultmate is the Extreme version, it can be used without a laptop as it has a display, not so easy to use though. Vehicle Explorer can be downloaded from the BBS site.Thanks for that Keith, found a disc in amongst the stuff @TAKdriver sent me when i bought his Faultmate, still havent had a play with it yet dont know if the buggered lead fecked the unit, I could do with a dummies guide how to use it.cannot make head nor tail of the owners site.

Yeah. good point. It was late and I was having a mental block and could not remember the simple phrase ‘rear view mirror’.Not really sure what it’s there for either.....

Hi Datatek,
Good spot - but no. First registered keeper was a Director of JLR in London- a Landrover company car. But it is incredibly well specc’d. All the right upgrades.
At the time the top model was the recently introduced Autobiography, but only available in black. Like me, the director preferred blue with cream leather so he got a Top spec Vogue SE in blue and cream, added every upgrade and then had an autobiography upgrade so the leather seats, headlining etc and styling is all autobiography.
Then i bought it so I had all the first registered keeper details.

Do you not have a laptop? Much easier to operate via Vehicle Explorer with much more information. Unless the Faultmate has an open licence, you will need to get it unlocked for each car. If you do not have a laptop, might be better to sell the Faultmate and buy a Nanocom.Morning Keith, It is the Extreme so stand alone.
