Microcat question

Been trying this one for some time - with zero success. I'm still using Unicat (EPC), FWIW it's a more accurate system! According to my local main dealer Microcat is pretty flawed insomuch as wrong part numbers etc, that's why they blagged a copy of Unicat back from me after they had new computers installed!!! Badger.

Bearing in mind unicat is now 3(?) years old now I'd say it has a lot more inaccurate data in it than Microcat, I know I'd never go back to it at work.

Microcat has a lot more search options, and a far better supersession system the unicat ever had. It'll also give you a lot more info on whats actually fitted to a vehicle from the VIN

I've got a 40k file that will let you bypass the dongle. If your interested I can email it. Then all you'll need to do is get your monthly updates.

Granted, it's a bit outdated for the newer landys, but the Microcat has (or had) a lot of incorrect part numbers for earlier models - maybe the latest upgrades have sorted it all out?

I'm certainly open to trying it....

That would definitely be appreciated by me Mark, and I'm sure by Landyowner as well. If you get a chance, email is brianhattonatbtinternetdotcom, many thanks. Badger.

I have a Microcat cd that says 2001 on it, would the file you have bypass the dongle on that? Cheers Richard

Yes, but you'd have to change the date on your PC to what ever the date on your CD says. To be honest Microcat in 2001 was pretty dire, so try and get your hands on an upto date CD

Who has got a microcat cd that they would like to copy for me for a small fee. The latest version available would be nice.

Ditto ;-) Richard

Hi Mark,

I have got a copy of the latest CD update and would be interrested in the file you have to bypass the dongle. Could you please send a copy to joshua1284athotmaildotcom

many thanks, josh

I've got a copy (Jan 2005 edition) that works without a dongle, just one 'altered' file that I know of that makes it work without the dongle I can send to anyone who want's hit. I'm looking for an even newer version (or an update) if anyone's got it?

TIA Si

Si, I'd be very interested in a copy please, the version I've got is one of the first versions - with all the mistakes in it! Badger.

Mail me and I'll send you details

@ SI I have the April 2005 version and your welcome to a copy of it if i can get it to work. I read your post above and you say you need to alter one file.. Id be keen to try anything at present. Could you email me the details please so I can try it and if it works your welcome to my April copy. email ... snipped-for-privacy@z6.com Regards, Chappo

Thanks to Mark and SI for their help it was appreciated. Unfortunately My Version is the Austraian FORD with 2 CD and none of the Fixes actaully work on this version so I'm still looking for a fix but todate no joy at all sadly. Cheers.

Is it possible to send me a copy of this file. I have the 03/2005 software.

email it to me remove the scruu-2 from my address line and mail it to me....
