I assume that's just for the "keyless" LR4's and not the LR3 ?
Already supported for the D3/LR3, been for a while now. Keep in mind that only a brand new key bought from LR will do.

Truly terrifying in the nicest possible way!
No worries, you need a valid key in range in order to start the process... in other words, it cannot be used for stealing purposes http://www.gap-diagnostic.com/

Sorry, dummies question here.... And for some's peace of mind.
What's the definition of "in range" in LR's view of keyless system?

Good point Alex, I should have been a bit more precise. The working key needs to be inside the vehicle... else the ignition cannot be turned on and the process cannot begin.http://www.gap-diagnostic.com/

The range for the keyless ignition is quite small - inside the vehicle and reasonably close to the steering column. The back seat is too far and outside is a complete non-starter.Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948

I'm nearly as bad as Del at all this techie stuff but even I have just managed to program my spare D4 key after owning for nearly a year in its packet
Oh my god, Gap were lightning quick in responding to my numptyness in which I couldn't get the ADD KEY up on the menu so a message to Gap to ask what might be wrong and within 1 minute they had the answer for me
I had updated my tool to the release and not the Beta What ever that means so off I went to update to the Beta.
Out to the car, through the menu, 1 minute later my key is now working
A massive thumbs up for the excellent service and for allowing me to now have a spare key

Hi guys,
Out of curiosity... Can Landrover program a previously used key onto a 2012 discovery 4 - or is this only available through IID?
I've had a nightmare experience with a franchised dealer who has sold us a car with only one key. I've bought a used key on eBay but they are telling me it will cost £50 to have the original (lost by previous owner) key removed and that it is not possible to program my purchased to onto my vehicle. Instead I purchase a new one.
