VCV pump learning tool
Hi all,

Swapped out my VCV today. Ive read on here that i need to run a pump cycle.
Can anyone recommend a relatively budget friendly diagnostic tool that i’ll be able to use?

Thanks

In my experience of changing my VCV twice, it doesn't need a learn. Runs great with just the new valve. When Nanocom added the facility to do the pump learn they posted on their support forums at the time that it isn't actually necessary as the pump with learn itself over time anyhow. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS

You could try FORScan with an ELM327 adapter. Works with the 2,4l - worksnt with the 2,2l Puma.
