Default T4 Diagnostic software

Can someone please provide a (legal) link to wherever I might be able to purchase the T4 Diagnostic software, for a virtual T4 from please, I have searched but turned up nothing and I guess it might be helpful to others too.

Thanks Brian, I guess I must be missing something, I can't see it listed anywhere, loads of hardware, but no software, do I have to call them? and can you give me a rough idea of what is a reasonable price please.

I dont see why members who pay over £8k for the machines and software cant offer their services for free "in the knowledge that they are keeping members cars alive" lol!
Just get someone with the expertise to do it and save many pounds as you wouldnt get the money back unless you own a fleet or business. If I could I wouldnt buy one if I had the readies as meeting Brian etc is heart warming and never becomes a stranger but a friend. Always there to help advise and Im waiting for his Germanic version just for me lol!

Hi.
I contacted them May or June. I previously had a full T4 and also another couple of scrappers and a few of the OE discs, all were pretty much scratched to bits.
When I contacted them they were far from helpful even to the point of being rude. One guy told me the discs are trade only then I was put on hold and then an other fellow said they no longer supplied them.
I got the distinct feeling I had been fobbed off, the same bloke said they used to be over £100!
Perhaps someone else might get a better result.

I have an industrial CD repair machine, if that ever happens again, it can restore some really badly scratched CD / DVD / Blu ray.

Hi.
The thing is if the OE discs are NLA where do we go from there, copies will no doubt be always available and if its correct they are NLA, surely a copy would be legal as the OE supplier basically cant!!!
