hawkeye to buy or not to buy

i have a icarsoft i930
i have a fault on the air suspension, it says CAN bus fault
what that means i have no idea
i have an hawkeye set up for a defender
to up grade it to a RR, its about the same price as a buying a new one
the new hawkeye BA5068 covers most if not all land rovers except for the latest ones
the BA5068 can be bought off Ebay for less than $700
the GAP IID BT, which is highly recommended on this site buy some members, can be bought for about the same money

so, as the hawkeye covers most land rovers, while the GAP tool is vin locked, i think the hawkeye is the better deal
but is the hawkeye as good as the GAP tool
dose any one know
after spending $700 on which ever, will i get the same result i am getting from my icarsoft, CAN bus fault
thanks RR 2005 4.4 petrol

Do you have the i930 or the i980 (just checking it isn't a typo). My quick search shows the 980 as a Mercedes reader so it may only show generic OBD codes for other makes. My i930 while not as capable or easy to use as as my IID tool will give you the specific error code as is a dedicated LR reader. 2016 Skoda Octavia VRS Estate

If you are planning to keep the car, or stick with Range Rovers / Land Rovers - then iiDTool / AllComms (for your current model) is the way to go. If not then the more generic tools like Hawkeye / Solus / Autologic may solve most issues. .

In answer to your question, I don't think the IID can give you any more info on an error code than the i930. The IID is far more capable and definitely worth the money but I'm not sure it will help you isolate this particular problem. 2016 Skoda Octavia VRS Estate
