For you folks with OBDlink MX and similar, you may be able to update your firmware. See https://www.scantool.net/downloads/updates/obdlink_mx/ for example. It's possible to download the firmware from the linked page, but it crashed on my Windows 10 laptop while updating. Updating from 4.0.2 to 4.3.0 using the ODBLink phone app worked fine though {settings->firmware update].

Will give it a go. Was this the WiFi version RED?

Nope, I've got the black MX bluetooth version.

Didn't see anything listed on the site for the WiFi version but the app might find an update.

That's what I thought. As far as I know the WiFi version cannot be updated.

Just make sure the baud rate port settings match the update application settings , otherwise it crashes on win 7 / 10. A little touchy this one
