Get the autel ap200
Used with smart phone, cheap as chips. Loads of ppl on here use them.
From £45
Get a white one if you can find one in stock.

don''t know about that one.
But the ap200 it's cheap enough to leave in your glvoebox, and will do other car manufactures/brands if you pay a small annual fee (less than £20 I think)
I think it will read engine codes for any car for free, just the advanced functions you need to pay for

its about £1700 but thats cheaper ( and im told better ) than snap on one , ive found one a nearly new secondhand one for £900 so sounds good value
im so frustrated with this car as air suspencion is basically simple but cant sort this one out and i dont like replacing parts till it works as gets expensive

Is there not a second rear valve?
Have you tried the removal of fuse trick to see if it drops over-night?

I have the top of the range Snap on diagnostics ,its not anywhere near as good as the Gap lld for reading and calibrating on these vehicles save your money and buy a Gap lld or an Autel ap200Andrew
