Bought it last weekend as needed to get one quick and it was a dawdle to set up and it hooks up to laptop easily enough. I havent used it much but been through all the systems and it seems to do everything. Mine is a gems car and I think that the newer the vehicle the ore info you can get. It works on car model so the one I ave will hook up to any p38 for less than 300 quid it seems good to me.
I reset adaptions which was sadly overdue and was able to cycle the blend motors etc and identify it was temp sensor by clock so it saved me a pile of time. The live data was useful in that I was able to graph the inlet temp and the coolant temp on a run top see what was going on.
Llambda output in volts or graph so good info there . Also most fault codes come up and a text explanation
I have no experience of Black Box so cant compare anyone passing happy to hook up

I've got a Nanocom and a deisel so we could try that one day if I'm heading down that way. Currently the Nano is at my brother's down in the smoke so could possibly kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Sure he'd like to see the Lynx too.

Where's did you find that option? I couldn't find it on mine. (I won't admit I'm a computer programmer at this point because it will make me look stupid!)

Thats one thing i've queried Brit Part about, told them they need an update fix so it can cycle blend motors, they are looking at it they said so if you have one where it's possible please take a couple of snaps so we can see how you do it and maybe the fix is already implemented and update on the stairs
Yes i think it can do Diesels, Gems & Thor not VIN locked as the option is there but still to be proven
