To add and not edit, the car was then worth over four grand less in the space of about three months due to the moon mileage.
I bought a Vauxhall once (yes I know) from a main Vauxhall dealership (yes I know this too thanks).
Mileage on the car was 39k, when I traded it in a few months later the mileage was actually found in hpi to be 141k and Vauxhall had been naughty about the truth.
Vauxhall said I was informed about the mileage and the technical error on the sales sheet
Possibly one day karma will be my friend and I’ll see the sales guy again who misled me, and it won’t end well for him.
Can you remember step by step how you accessed the modules ( and which ones ) with the iCarsoft i980?I remember now coming across it on my carsoft i980 with its limited connection in 3 places from memory (modules as you say blobcat)
....
I need to rewind epb and clear .....
I tried the youtube method but it won't work. I held phone+okay buttons but nothing happened.Can't you do that via the dash cluster? My ML does after various steering wheel presses ... found via Youtube
Oh!I tried the youtube method but it won't work. I held phone+okay buttons but nothing happened.
Well Wear, keep us postedI’ve just parted with £300 for a foxwell nt680 all systems. It promises good things will happen when I insert it.
Same here on the brothers C class, could not get the button method to work...wrote down the instructions line-by-line, and followed them to the letter....no joy. Glad to hear that i'm not the only one............I tried the youtube method but it won't work. I held phone+okay buttons but nothing happened.
I'm a bit of an night owl at the moment........this lockdown has slowly but surely changed my normal routine.....has it affected anyone else the same way??? Have you considered iCarsoft OBD readers?? No problem to reset service miles, and I'm pretty sure that it does what you need with the ECU updating. I've never had to update the ECU in mine, so I can't speak 100% for sure, but if you google iCarsoft CR PRO, it will show you what it's capable of.01:44 !?
Either you are on furlough and spend way to much time on cod, or you work nights
I shall return the Foxwell for a refund, the seller was a very helpful guy and accepted a return less postage and paypal fees which is to be expected. The company is based in Wales (Genden UK) and they sell a whole host of obd gear so based on my experience I'd recommend them. The guy said we won't get anything currently that can reset oil service light, withdraw the handbrake/rear caliper pistons etc unless our cars are at least two years old which gives Foxwell the opportunity to catch up with software.
I like to perform many oil/trans fluid changes (as I do with my motors) so will exceed the Man.service spec. by far, and wanted to keep the ecu updated with actual ecu oil resets.
Looks like a dirty cheapnese xentry/star is the only way, though I am very reluctant to plug a snide copy into my £78k car.

Hi Jim sorry it took so long mileage in instrument cluster obviously, and in followingCan you remember step by step how you accessed the modules ( and which ones ) with the iCarsoft i980?
Thanks Jim.
Carsoft i980 is a great little starter tool(superseded now but still available on Amazon or fleabay) to point you in the right direction for faults as it covers reading every module (in my Vito anyways). Its small and compact and easy stored in the car as mine is always in the van just in case at least it will keep getting you out of limp mode if its intermittent until you get home I have Delphi software on a laptop which cover the programming part which i have only used for injectors and DPF reset and Regen so far.I'm a bit of an night owl at the moment........this lockdown has slowly but surely changed my normal routine.....has it affected anyone else the same way???
