Hi, just a quick question, I have read any seen many things concerning the iidtool, to sound thick again what are they and are they worth purchasing ??  2007, HSE, Cairnes Blue, Factory tints, Love it !!!

Depends what you class as its 'worth'?

It allows you to read every ECU on the car for faults, and then clear them. For example, if you ABS light comes on you can look up the code and when the fault is fixed, you can clear it yourself.

It also allows you to updated the software of certain ECU's on the car (if required) and adjust suspension heights.

I would only really advise someone to buy one if you know how to fix cars, otherwise you will still have to pay someone to diagnose the fault.

I used to be a mechanic so it comes in handy

Nice one! I know where that is I might pop up sometime. Perhaps you can show me that IIDTool too! I donmt really have a need to have one as such as I'm not a mechanic and would always take it to my local garage anyway. I'm not Fat. RRS TDV6 HST.

Joe, when you get off with the satnav not being able to change the destination when your moving, let me know or of the clock that isn't on the dash etc etc
I'll post up when the next one is if you like and you don't mind mixing with discovery drivers  Bodsys Brake Bible

The Sat Nav on the move is a Godsend.

The clock is in a much more logical place in the message centre, instead of on the radio. You wouldn't miss it, until you had it activated though.

And 3 flash indicators I would struggle without them now

Yep, clock, inidcators all what I'll probs need. That sat nav on the move though, have'nt tried yet but I thought I could do this already :@ I'm not Fat. RRS TDV6 HST.

2006..... Nope. Try driving more than 6mph when you start entering an address. It will go grey.. Oops.

So next time your driving through france or wherever and want to go to a new destination, you have pull over in an aire just to be able to change it.
Not frustrating really if you don't have it im sure  Bodsys Brake Bible
