I can read some codes with my Torque app via bluetooth.

I have loads of diagnostic software though on my laptop.

that will only read/reset engine diagnostic codes, this is the sort of thing you'll need if you want to adjust P2 settings (ie DRL etc) LINK (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VOLVO-Vida-Dice-Diagnostic-Tool-version-2011-D-UK-/350542639953?pt=UK_Diagnostic_Tools_Equipment&hash=item519df83351)

They are coming down in price. :) I bought mine in December for £150 with 2011A. Leave it six months and they will be paying you to take them off their hands....

What spec laptop would we need to run this sort of thing?

What spec laptop would we need to run this sort of thing?


I have been told:

XP, or win7 pro/ultimate, 2 gig ram, about 10 gig HHD, IE8 no later (it wont work on IE9, and as fast processor as you can find (duel core) otherwise you will be waiting a lot longer.

I have DiCE but I am trying to find a cheap, good laptop. (anyone)?
