How to Clear Land Rover Evoque Fault Codes via Foxwell GT80

I have successfully used Foxwell GT80 professional diagnostic tool to read and clear fault codes of Rover Evoque 2012, here I will share the process with more guys.

After many weeks of reading and finding sparse bits of information here and there, I finally ordered Foxwell GT80 as my Rover Evoque 2012 fault codes scan tool, it cost me €1070 with free shipping, the price is a little high, but I have used it to diagnostic my car and my friends’, no major problems have been found yet. My friends said that this product could make a lot of unemployed mechanic. Hummm…I think it is right.

All right, let’s go to the detailed procedures:

First of all, I connect Foxwell GT80 with my Evoque via diagnostic cable which comes with the GT80.

How to solve JLR Mangoose SDD Problem “cannot read VIN”

jlr-mangoose-for-jaguar-and-land-rover-blog-1

Problem description:

When install JLR Mangoose SDD diagnostic software for Jaguar and Land rover on windows XP laptop, the program runs well, but unable to read Jaguar or Land rover vehicle VIN. SDD “Manual VIN read” failed either.

The Mangoose cable can be detected by computer because the green indicator light flashes. But when loaded SDD both green and red indicator flashed. Try to install on different clean (none-anti-virus software) XP laptop, all fail to read VIN.

Solution (offered by one of the JLR SDD users):

1.Uninstall the previous JLR SDD drivers on the computer.
2.Download the new drivers from the Drewtech website (only fits for 32bit system) and update the firmware on the Mangoose.
3.Install the new downloaded driver and connect the Mangoose cable with vehicle.
4.SDD will be able to recognize vehicle VIN
5.If the method fails, perhaps your vehicle model is not supported by JLR SDD diagnostic software.

Quality AAA Clone Xhorse Mini VCI cable support VPW

How to tell good clone Xhorse mini VCI cable techstream from a bad clone, this is what I verified and think it may be helpful if I share here.
Good clone Xhorse Mini VCI cable firmware >2.0.1 support VPW protocol. I got from cardiag.co.uk, they always offer such clone and will not have problems.
Bad clone Mini VCI cable with FW 1.4.1 and lack VPW protocol.

If you would like to reset immo, or make customization to cars, you need at least 2.0.1 FW with 2.0.1 FW there is change in PCB, as it supports VPW, and has extra security chip. On the other hand, all these simple clones with 1.4.1 FW support only CAN and K line, VPW protocol is unsupported in 1.4.1 FW, and there is no parts for it on PCB.

As you can see, this is the PCB for the good clone Mini VCI cable with FW 2.0.1 and VPW:
