This allows you to service you car at home for a fraction of the price you would pay if you would have had to take it to the showroom. All you require is your laptop with Windows XP (this is preferred but not compulsory) and your INPA Interface. The INPA is in the form of a Compact Disk and is connected to your car with a USB cable.
