1. JLR DoIP VCI device: This is the diagnostic communication DOIP interface that connects to your JLR vehicle’s OBD-II port and communicates with the JLR SDD and Pathfinder software on your laptop. You will also need the VCI Manager software installed to manage the connections.
2. JLR SDD software: This is the primary software used to diagnose and repair JLR vehicles 2005-2016.
3. Pathfinder software: This software is used for advanced diagnostics and programming, and it’s typically used by dealerships and experienced technicians. It works for JLR vehicles 2016-2022 and on TOPIx Cloud 2022-2023
