Hey guys, long time lurker here. After refueling a few days ago I got the general check engine light on the screen of my 308 T9. It was diagnosed as a faulty additive pump and basically no garage wants to touch it since pairing a new one is a dealer only job, in their words. Dealer quote exceeds a 1000 euros which I find insane. By some googling I found this thread and the video in it viewtopic.php?t=65736
What I would like to know is can the thing from the video (pairing of the new pump) be done with diagbox 9 and a full chip lexia or do I have to hunt down someone with the same diagnostic tool as in the video? I have no problem with paying for a token.
Thank you in advance

Re: 308 T9 1.6 88KW Eolys Additive pump problem
What year is your car? Cloned versions of DB 9 may prevent you from doing this even with a token. This sort of operation is quite risky and not guaranteed to work as you can see above.
There have been members here who have had similar issues using a clone with additive / pump related issues and had to take it to a dealer to resolve.
You could also try buying the pump yourself and pay the dealer to fit and code or just code it.

So in lieu of going to the dealer the best option would be to try to find the diagnostic tool from the video above?

That may prove difficult - those Snap on Modis Edge units are a little under £2000 to buy and then there are the subscriptions to the software... Trying to find somebody with that unit may prove a challenge.
The dealer will also have the experience of doing this on the specific vehicle engine so that's what you're paying for too.
For a 2014 vehicle though, you should be able to use Diagbox 7.58 as that was available from from 14/11/2014. Version 7.62 came out in 3/01/2015, so should also be fine.

Tried it a while ago when switch the smeg for a nac and no luck. Needs a newer diagbox but I could try again for this issue.

That's separate - and because you can't code a NAC unit with V7 - it needs connected dealer server access. That's a completely different issue with telematics. As far as the Additive system goes it should not be an issue.

Diagbox 7.83 worked like a charm
