Review on Xhorse VVDI2 BMW VAG Keys

One user feedback: haveXhorse vvdi2andvvdi mb. And very happy with that. And done a lot of keys. but many customers ask for other keys also mostly vag and bmw. Looking for good universal remote that can be used in most of the vags and also bmw with key blade.

 

Advice:

Xhorse has universal remote/blade systems. But you will still need to learn them to the vehicle.

 

I usehttps://www.obdii365.com/producttags/xhorse-remote.htmlthey are a very reputable company with some of the best prices, I will say this.Xhorse VVDI2 is a must have tool. However the universal flip key with remote is touch and go. Its 99 percent success with transponder programming or cloning with an xhorse superchip. The remote cloning I have little to no success with. Remote generating and programming I would say I have a 60 percent success rate. Very vehicle specific, and much better on pre 2015 vehicles for remotes. All this being said. I do love there product and pricing. I just wouldnt put all my eggs in one basket. They are great go to when you have many options for the economical customer.

 

 

AS I said you can do a lot with transonder. ID48 Cloning cost points similar to tokens. It works very well on vw and audi. Thext27 superchipis amazing it can be programmed many times over and over and continue to work. I have often just used one for testing probably programmed over one hundred times. If you buy 100 you get a big discount. You can use them on so many different vehicles. Then you can purchase cheap shell transponder keys and just generate or clone yourself. Now if you are all key lost, You will be reading the immo dump and either generating your own new key file or easier grab one and use your VVDI2 to clone one of the already made keys. The program to do that is in the transponder area of the tool software. If you are trying to do immo 5 and up MQB key I don’t recommend using other keys and yes if that means purchasing some for stock then so be it. Dont be afraid to spend money on tools and inventory. You will make it back little by little and then use half your profit to buy more stock so soon you won’t have to order and wait for overseas shipping. As far as your universal key question. Look at xhorse 3 and 4 button super remote item#5261. It has a super chip inside it already. So you can literally program or clone like 15 different chip types (think of how many cars you can do with that one remote, only thing missing is the blade). Buy like 20 of this remote and then buy many different key blade inserts. That will get you up and running, to hopefully purchase more product to have on hand.

 

Alright, here I attach one image of Xhorse universal remote:

	Tahoe	2021
	Silverado
	Suburban
GMC	Yukon

Let’s get started.

Get right into IMMO to start programming this new OEM key proximity for this vehicle.
Before you start, connect x300dp plus to WiFI, constantly available Hotspot or Local signal. Online calculation requires network connection.
Go to update make sure you have both gm data as well as the gm IMMO software V33.24 or above.

 

Connect CAN FD adapter to the OBDB port using OBD cable and OBDII cable
Select IMMO, then under American’s GM and GM V33.30

 

 

Next, select Program keys – GMC – USA Canada – Yukon – Proximity – 2021 – Without Pin Code – All Keys Lost

Choose Enter to erase all the keys on the system
EnsureCAN FD GM adapteris in place to continue
Press the Push to Start button continually or open and close door every 10 seconds during communication

 

The system is searching the key
This keeps anti-theft from locking the system and canceling the process.

 

 

Once accessories and Dash light up, you have entered the anti-theft system.
10 minutes wait mandatory

 

 

after 10 minutes theft deterrent system will be deactivated.
confirm old key deletion and continue to add new keys
now we start to add new key to the system.
program new key 1 of 2 into Vehicle signal coil located in the Control driver cup holder

 

 

On screen read "Ready for Key 1”, press Push to start button for 2 seconds to add key

 

 

When screen reads "Ready for Key 2”, replace key 1 and press Push to start button for 2 seconds to add key

 

 

 

When screen reads "Ready for Key 3”,all keys are programmed, you can exit the system.

 

confirm desired key number and exit

 

 

once the system configures, press and hold Start-Stop button 16 seconds to close key learning

 

 

Key learning complete
Turn off ignition switch, open and close door just once.

 

 

 

when the loading car is completed, the system is fully closed.
Then test all key buttons, functions and prox start.

All working. This is a super easy and cheap way to get it done.

Autel Im508 with xp400 pro same functions as Im608 with xp400 pro?

This article answer this common question: Does Autel Im508 with xp400 pro have the same functions as Autel Im608 with xp400 pro? Same features and diagnostics and immo ? And just size different?

 

Some people might think:

Autel IM508 + XP400cost half of the price on IM608 are you think that can do the same?

 

In fact:

Theimmo functions are pretty much the samefor key programming.

 

The difference is the diagnostic functions, im608 has far more diagnostic functions included, depends what you want the machine for, the extra cost and subscription cost is for the diagnostic functions. Diagnostic side on the im608 is really good and can almost be compared with the mk908p only the online programming for Mercedes and bmw is not on im608.
But the rest off the coding and programming is still possible on the im608.

 

And the annual subscription of Autel IM608 is double.

Look at the comparison table among Autel IM508,IM608,IM608 Pro
