Viano ex long, 651 2014. S211 646 2009 (till the Gov't drones blow 'em off the road)
I looked at a not particularly well cared for Viano earlier, dash mileage at 113k miles.
The transmission TCU showed 83k kilometres, so a little over 50k miles, on iCarsoft V2.

That's a bit of a discrepancy, can anyone explain it?
 
How much was it up for?
 
Gearbox or control unit was replaced 50k miles ago?

TCU possibly, as I don't see the TCU would know which gearbox was fitted as 'I believe' the TCU is coded but the box isn't.

Other modules had difficulty communicating with iCarsoft, but not having the luxury of time it may have been I could have had more success.

I feel it will need a bit of TLC here and there, and there is an element of increased risk so rather than make an offer I'm tempted to watch the auction and if it remains cheap take a punt close to the auction end.
 
On the subject of iCarsoft diagnosis, can anyone give step by step instruction's on how to check soot content in the DPF using an iCarsoft V11 MB? Thanks in advance for your help.
