I just took mine to Halfords where they charged me a minimal amount to install. It took five mins, they took care of the old battery too. Once fitted all the dash warning lights came on but disappeared after 20 secs & I was good to go- just had to change the date/time settings which was simple enough even for me. Paul.

mine has 112k miles on, wears it very well so far

Oh you little devil Neil!!!!

Well my ori was a full OBD2 OBDII EOBD Auto Full System Diagnostic Scanner Code Reader on winCE. Tiny little thing battery only haven't seen one for sale for a decade. The apparently upgraded 5 expressed as V+ are available but I have zero evidence of their codes. My ori had all 4 ODB areas including the 'hens teeth' area of Chryslers own info and did have live data. I found live data reliable read at the time and unreliable when saved and read later - this I assume is lack of (add a data card) onboard memory. I've tested two super grey sellers (at my expense) by making them plug my new set into my odb port.and found them not to work. Smile, listen politely to their protestation and drive off wedge intact - I'd never buy blind without an actual test. Many protocols on my MK4 have changed over the years and new ones invented. A new[er] car on a new[er] diagnostic scanner might well work but not in my 04-07 Mk case. Hope this info helps.
