I programmed extra keys on my 16 L405 with the tool.
Some L 405 models are not supported however and they make no guarantees, it was a process on mine of 3 emails and 2 separate software updates but worked good.

 

Thanks so much, Chris F. I appreciate it. I’ll reach out to them once I have officially received this tool as a “surprise” For Christmas. Glad to know it worked. I have a 2015 supercharged so I will ask. I guess Patrick is the lead engineer over there. People are raving about so I’ll reach out to him. Thanks again. Cheers.

 

Oh, and before I forget, there’s a third and follow on question to those people who have multiple LR’s and a gap IID tool. I’m assuming I don’t have to tie this to a single Vin and that I either can download or purchase or…. To be able to use this on multiple vin’s. Before somebody asks me to call or look up the information since I have the tool, it’s a Christmas present from my wife so technically I don’t have the tool. I’m not actually supposed to know that I have the tool but these days people are sending **** in open boxes and not putting them in brown boxes to prevent people who are getting gifts from seeing these things so it arrive while my wife was out and I know I’m getting it. I just no longer know where it is and thought I would ask the community who probably understands about these types of Christmas surprises thank you again cheers

We have 2 LR vehicles,18 Discovery and 18 Range Rover L405, and one tool. To use full functions of the tool on both vehicles, you need buy an additional license/code for extra vehicle.

 

great. Thank you. Roughly how much is each additional VIN license?

 

$101 per car, plus $38 per software flash/update

 

Awesome information. Thanks guys

 

I have a question about using GAP tool.
My 2011 SC RRS came with a rear locker. Now, it doesn't show the lock activating on the dash screen and I can' t get it to lock in any off road situation.
I then went into my vehicle info and noticed the rear locker is "not fitted". Can the GAP tool change that piece of info to "fitted"?

 

This is the L405 forum, so you’re likely better off asking this in the L320 forum where more people might have encountered this.
Short answer is yes, it can. You can use the Gap IID to edit the vehicle CCF.

I’m curious how it got turned off in the first place… did this coincide with a service visit?

 

Thanks for the reply. I figured this was generic enough of a question for here.
Yah, I am not sure how it got turned off. No service visits should have dealt with that info.

 

So I have two questions:
1) How did you make out with your key ?
and
2) If I buy a GAP tool from someone who has already used it and they "transfer" the tool to me; and I then get a license for my VIN from GAP? In otehr words is there ANY issue with. buying a used tool?

Thanks,

Dave

 

I believe you have to pay GAP to release the VIN lock and attach it to yours. So factor that into the price when you see one on Ebay.....may not be such a 'deal'.
