I have a used a generic code reader on my Jag. It has to work because OBDII is a standard. If it didn't work with OBDII readers, you wouldn't be able to get a state inspection in states that require connecting to the ECU.
Looking at the specks of the iCarsoft, it literally does nothing a basic OBDII reader couldn't do. But it looks like they lock you to one car which is stupid.
Now if it could do things like program keys, then it would make sense to get a model specific OBDII reader.

Coz it does a helluva lot more than a basic code reader.

About the only thing it doesn't do is program keys.
