Diagbox Very Very slow to load - unless . . .

He's my setup , one lead one hand heald tablet thingy. If you purchase the plug in to the obd port this can work wireless 10 meter range ,

Yeah there are easier to use diagnostic machines out there and yours look a good piece of kit for the money.

I've been able to sort the problem I had with the car using Diagbox. It was a reversing sensor fault, turned out there were 3 duff sensors.

I also wanted to turn off the automatic folding door mirrors when you lock the car which I was able to do, but unfortunately when you turn them off you then loose the manual fold option which is disappointing.

I also though there may be an option to have total closure from the remote for the 4 electric windows but there doesn't seem to be any option for this in any of the menus that I can see.

Cheers.

Good thing you found them duff sensors . As ive found over the years nothings almost never straight forwards with cars

I have just today discovered a different menu where you can disable the mirrors from folding when you lock the car but still retain the ability to fold them manually from the drivers door switch, so I'm happy with that discovery

I think the problem with any reader is the user, we are all scared of bricking the ECU!!!!

[uncle buck]

Yes, that's always a thought in the back of your mind before you press anything.

Unless you are using a reader often it's all a bit of a memory game, trying to remember where you saw something and getting back to it.

I would have thought there would be an option to have the windows close by holding the remote lock button (Total closure) like on other cars , all 4 windows are one touch enabled and total closure is often available when you have this.

Have you tried disabling the network in the VM, rather than the host machine?

Just tried that ..... I gave up after 25 minutes of staring at the Diagbox black screen

Having tried a lot of things none of which made any difference, some changes seemed to make it slower or even freeze up completely, I have finally managed to sort the slow loading.
It was just a case of fully deleting the VM from the computer and reinstalling it, it runs fine now with no long waiting for it to load.

Thanks for all of the advice offered

Cheers.

The windows uninstall and reinstall still happens in 2025 ! Well done for finding a solution

Exactly, and they want us to trust AI in vehicles.

Recipe for disaster that one.
