You need two apps
MaxiAP200 main one and does engine fault codes. (Red icon)
Diag Europe for the advanced licensed stuff (blue icon)

Pete - thanks, everything's pretty clear on the instructions.
I managed 1 run through before my phone battery died, but it covered 16? 'sectors' with all sorts of codes reported.
I'll get my head around it it the daylight tomorrow.

one thought - anyone know if I should have the engine running when doing the diagnostics?
Thanks

No. Well, unless you are looking at live values.

I think it is still worth noting that the Autel Maxi AP200 doesn't work for a Discovery 4 from 2016. Only up to production year 2015. Unfortunately, I found out only after purchase, but I'm allowed to return it and I should get a refund.
If anyone can recommend me a similar OBD reader that supports a 2016 Discovery, I would highly appreciate it.
I spend hours reading all I could find using the "search" function on this forum, but I'm still not sure what device I should go for.
Maybe I would better buy an IID tool at once ? I haven't decided yet. Of course the tool with most features is the most interesting one, but thoose aren't cheap. Any recommandations are most welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Paul.
