Australian delivered cars are EU equivalent for most circumstances, so if in doubt stick with the EU settings where their is a choice.

Please note (and this is really important), you need to have a battery charger attached that can sustain the current draw while the ignition is on and the engine off. My charger is not up to the task and the battery has been depleted at inopportune times (for example, it went flat during the transmission update). Flattening the battery can cause persistent fault codes to be logged too (such as air suspension, steering angle sensor alignment etc).

Hi Grant, this is all really good information. Once i get this kit, i'll let you know what software it came with and i would love to pick your brain some more if thats ok?
