The advantages are simply that you don’t have to spend hours installing on old past their prime laptops with dodgy batteries liable to die while your flashing something on your car. Also i have included Mongoose toolkit in the VM that will auto flash the correct firmware into your cable for the version of JLR SDD Pathfinder your using.
These can be ran on any system that can also run Oracle’s Virtualbox. That includes Windows, OSX and Linux machines. You don’t need a particular beefy laptop either.

b. Any windows boxes that pop up to search for hardware. Just cancel. Its looking for the drivers of hardware you don’t have. Ignore.
c. Plug your mongoose into the car and the other end into the laptop. Turn the ignition of your car to position 2. Go to devices on the top of the image, USB and select the mongoose. Should be Drews!

So right click on the window and adjust to your own laptops specifications. If you press RIGHT CONTROL BUTTON and C for scaled mode or RIGHT CONTROL BUTTON and F for full screen mode.
d. Now double click on JLR SDD. It should now load up Internet explorer (yes it is browser based!!). If it fails to load, close the browser and stop the application. Double click again Jaguar SDD, and it will load.
f. If you are confronted with the password screen only with Version 130. Which sometimes happens? It is below
(Also there is a password.txt on the VM images desktop with it)
USER ID – JLR9A8172
Password – L538X760
Then press identify
g. You should be now confronted with the vehicle identification number (VIN) screen. If read is greyed out. Then your mongoose is not talking to the car.
Is it plugged into the car and laptop?
Is the car ignition in position 2?
Did the mongoose configuration tool flash the firmware?
Did you activate USB in the image?
If you followed all my steps to the vehicle identification number (VIN) screen. The read option should be coloured. Select it and it will retrieve your VIN, and then you’re on your own adventurer!Good to know: it’s risky!!!
