The code comes from JLR as it is VIN specific.
I started this with the engine running, but now have 2 Cteks providing the power. Unfortunately I have no idea how to keep the ignition on for the entire time.
20% done, apparently.

Robbie,
Is it worth using the IID tool to top up the engine oil so its more towards the top of the acceptable level?
In my case, my IID tool is showing about 5.2l in the engine. The onboard computer shows the oil level as about 2/3 on the gauge with the "OK" displayed. Is it worth topping up a little using the IID? Maybe just a few hundred ml?
It came back from the last LR service showing about 5.4l I think when I checked it after the service, so not concerned that its lost any etc. Its done about 6/7K since the service.
Thanks

It monitors the level increase over time as well as decrease, so if you add oil when it has not asked for it (and without resetting the oil service) it will confuse itself.
