Can think of at least one third-party software option that claims dealer level interface. Tier IV is the cause of a lot of the problems, DEF is one of my least favorite liquids when it's -20 out.

JD service advisor is like $1500 for the cable then $250/mo or something on the software. Makes a guy wish he'd paid when it was a one time.

Yeah I can’t remember how much our software is but it’s a 1-time fee. Tier IV killed the diesel engine.

Fortunately, the OEM I work for has probably the best telematics system I’ve ever seen. Can view GPS, stats, current & stored codes etc. Can also view parts diagrams & download service manuals.
