Default Which X350 Scanner

I just wondered if anyone has up to date experience with using either the iCarsoft i930 or iCarsoft LR II scanners on an X350. I have a 2004 XJ Super V8. I'm currently experiencing parking sensor problems which I was hoping a scanner would help me with. I'm considering buying one of these two scanners.

Hi I use a iCarsoft and it's good reads live data so it will tell you what sensor has a fault

I have the same problem with my 2004 VDP, the parking alarm goes off for 3 secs and they do not work when reversing.

I week ago, I purchased an icarsoft i930 and under the "Parking aid control module" it gave me a C-1707 - Rear Left Center Sensor Failure (which is correct)

I saw on this forum, that since the parking sensors are "sonic" i.e. they give out a very quiet "clicking noise" all 3 rear sensors were clicking except the one identified with the i930.

I have to say that I had a problem with the i930 that under the "ECU" section it gave me the "Fault in communication with vehicle ECU".

(This fault also appears on other posts re scanners) I called the distributor I purchased it from and he said the better jaguar scanner was the Foxwell 510 and I have since upgraded to that model.

I am now waiting for the Foxwell 510 to arrive and will report back to the forum.

Smile Foxwell 510 scanner for Jaguar

Just received the new Foxwell 510 scanner for Jaguar and I am very impressed.
It had no problem communicating with all the modules on the 2004 XJ8 VDP it also shown up c-1430 and C-1707 rear left center sensor fault which will get done this week, hopefully.

So far ready like this scanner, comes with an excellent handbook, plus a CD with the handbook on, 59 pages much more complete than the icarsoft
i930.

This scanner will do much more than I will ever need it for!!!
This is the one to get!!

Go to their website to download the manual: Foxwell Technology Co., Ltd.

Who sells the Foxwell scanner? It doesn't appear that they do direct sales.
