VVDI2 vs ZED FULL what tool is better for VAG and BMW key programming?

Look here:

: I have Zed-Full and to be honest it’s a bit of a disappointment. Slow bringing out anything new on the VAG front. Older A3’s and TT’s never seems to be able to read the pin when other tools do fine. Not great on newer Marelli dash especially doesn’t like the one in the VW UP. Never manages to read any CAS modules by OBD (used to ok but hasn’t successfully read a single one for months) on top of that it’s expensive to run.
I’m about to order VVDI2 (Would have updated my AVDI but not going to be forced into dealing with KAP)

Reply 2: i have vvdi2 and zed full. for vag and bmw vvdi2 is best for me
zed full is good too for other marks

Reply 3: I had Zedfull for almost two years.
The day I bought it was happy day that week.
The day I sold it out was happiest day in my life .
VAG mostly if I couldn’t do with other tools Zedfull also cannot (PIN CODE).
Pretty expensive device for using indeed on tokens. Learn key for Passat B5 can cost about 25 – 30 tokens if procedure go okay (example),
pin code 20 + 5 or 10 for learning. Almost 20 years old car.
Hah chinese 100$ cost device can do the job with blink. These cars should be there for free for the price device cost.
VAG immo 4 chinese ID48 cannot learn but tokens take. Support says: “Use original or zedfull ID48” .
Basically support not very good, they reply sometimes . If you loose some tokens because the device CANNOT or wrong transponder you never gain them back but the claim before buy was different.
Did not try BMW when you see how many tokens they want – 50 tokens (about 35$) for key. What do you think for try?

Mitsubishi smart key cannot add, chinese device learn key with blink.
This device is for dummies… click there … click here .. done. For begginers maybe good but not for professionals.
I was disappointed with the device and support.

Reply 4: I have both, vvdi2 is better, ZED FULL always delay with their softwares and updates compared with other tools.

Reply 5: i agree. also have a zedfull, in bmw is my only option (have a tcode pro but dont buy bmw modules). made a few bmw, a x5 and x6 by obd and work fine, and a mini too. in vag is not very updated, sometimes in vw brazil have a few issues, for ex: trying to make a all key lost 2015 voyage, read pin ok, and tell me wait 15 min for security, then make weird config and dashboard say key 2-6, dont accept more keys, try again, wait another 15min, and again, i want 2 key and zedfull put 6 in programming. tcode make ok in the first attempt

Reply 6: if you need good tool for BMW CAS/MB EZS (read and write MB IR key), buy xhorse vvdi2. it makes keys over OBD (90% of VAG and BMW can be done by OBD in VVDI2) and includes all the VVDI functions

In summary,

If you looking only for VAG + BMW , then VVDI2 and VVDI prog is way to go. No need any other tool. In VVDI2 you have also programmer similar to Tango that you can make keys buy dump, but 90% of VAG and BMW can be done by OBD in VVDI2.

VVDI programmer don’t have OBD it’s only for bench programming.

Good for CAS4, FRM, EZS, EWS4 and many more.

1.Xhorse VVDI MB BGA TOOL users feedback:
– X Horse support is quite good but they also have created a lot of whats app/ messenger groups.

– vvdi mb bga tool its have best support and worth every paid money.

2.Diagspeed MB Key OBD2 Mercedes Key Programmer feedback:
Diagspeed is more expensive with more coverage and better support with help books and classes. Where would vvdi get there info.

if it wasn’t for diagspeed, simmon touch, noimmo and others in the Mercedes market.

The diagspeed in the us has the best tech support you can call direct and speak with someone who understands mercedes cars very well and will guide you through any problem.

They had a class in las Vegas that was the best. A book was handed out with all your different system with dumps and key location circle in. I was not to share it with the forum but I could give out info.

Diagspeed is wicked roy or dustie will help you in usa or uk, also will log into computer if you cant sort the problem your having .I can vouch for roys tools its the best in merc.

Thanks ray-ray share.

Lonsdor k518ISE differs from obdstar X300 DP (key master DP) in vehicle coverage and price.

1.vehicle coverage
-> obdstar X300 DP (key master DP) feedback: I have the Key Master and its Ok works 50% of the time and the rest it fails to communicate.

A must read post: OBDSTAR X300 DP IMMO & Odometer reset car list & Feedback

Feedback collections (up to 12/14/2016)

IMMO & Remote feedback on DK forum

Mileage correction feedback on DK forum

Tip: OBDSTAR X300 DP IMMO & mileage correction share as the same coverage as X100 Pro

-> Lonsdor K518ISE Key programmer vehicle coverage has no feedback yet, this one looks interesting but only time will tell. From what you’ve read, you will find this Lonsdor k518ISE is a little better than AVDI for a lot less the money. It is also twice the money of OBDStar X300 DP and Xtool tablets. Lonsdor K518ISE Claimed vehicle coverage: http://en.lonsdor.com/html/function

It claims to work on Volvo, LR, BMW FEM and CAS4, VAG IMMO5, etc…

There are some videos on the most used European cars from Ford, PSA, Fiat, Opel, VAG, Renault…as well as American cars, Asian cars etc, judging from CI600 reputation K518ISE should work.

2.Price

obdstar X300 DP (key master DP) price: $800~ $900 (google search you will find)

Lonsdor K518ISE Key programmer price: about $1200 for the first batch of 500pcs.

Conclusion:

So if you want to cover more cars you should choose between k518ise.

OBDStar doesn’t seem to offer an adequate alternative for the Android tablet products.

Verified: VVDI2 cannot read PIN & CS from VW Golf VI 1.6 TDI PCR2.1

Discussion copied from a forum:

A: Is it possible with VVDI2 read PIN and CS from VW Golf VI 1.6 TDI PCR2.1????

I need to change ECU and make IMMO work. Old ECU is damaged…

B: I did that several times. It’s not possible to read CS and pin from new used Ecu prc2.1. You have to have a tool like Smok or avdi. To read CS and pin. Then you can add Ecu by vvdi2.

A: Are you sure that once you know the PIN, MAC, CS you can adapt the PCR 2.1 with VVDI2? We’re not talking about the EDC17, MED17 or PPD 1.X, but about the PCR2.1. I taught hat PCR 2.1 can’t be adapted with VVDI2

B: Yes I’m 100% sure. I bought Smok license for pcr2.1 and done rest with vvdi2.

A: This is my plan too, but I read that the adaptation can’t be done with VVDI2. Thank you, mate, have a nice one!!!

B: I did few Skoda Octavia 1,6tdi 2010-2011

1.U need to read PIN MAC CS. From the dash.

2.If it’s ok then read by Smok PIN MAC CS. 3.Go to adapt unit module and choose Specify manually the existing PIN/CS…. and put your data.

4.After that if all ok you be able to filling up New Immobilizer data. That’s all. Even before u buy Smok u can make a try just skip point 2.

A: Excuse my ignorance, but what is the easyest way to read the CS from a 2009 Passat CC with EDC17 for dealer key preparation, I prefer not to open the ECU. Regards!!!

B: Pull and read comfort control module behind glovebox

Conclusion & Solution: Smok or AVDI instead of VVDI2 read PIN & CS from pcr2.1, then add ECU with VVDI2

GGDI Pro MB Mercedes Benz Programmer review on what works, very nice CGDI MB tool 🙂
1. CGDI MB tool adds only key with the option “with key”.
2. CGDI MB tool program new key with the option “without key” when all keys lost.
3: CGDI MB tokens
4: CGDI MB tool VS Xhorse VVDI in PCB
5. CGDI MB update

1. CGDI MB tool adds only key with the option “with key”.
– W220 first test, Read Blank Key, Read Write Erase key OK, read EZS and Password from Key…works

– Tested on W212
Read EZS —> OBD work Fine
Calulating PW from EZS —> Work fine Online Server
Key Calculating —> v041 & v051 Work fine online Server

– Mercedes W212 2010 e250 Petrol Automatic works

– Mercedes W221 2010 Facelift S600 V12 works

– W207 on bench OK, 11 minutes

– W203 2004 spare key making takes about 13 minute when begining to programming new key. Read pass NEC key by IR and calculate PSW
Key still working after get PSW.

2. Program new key with the option “without the key” when all keys lost.
– test all keys lost on w164 need gateway.

– Tested w212 ALL KEY LOST !!! In car, done by OBD
Work really good!
W212 is from 2012
Read ezs About 30mins
Upload data
Querry
Password given

Read eis info
Paste key password
Save
Then key calculation

– CGDI MB tool works good to do W207 W204 lost keys on bench.
W204 get data: About hour
PSW W204: 11minute all key lost in bench with VVDI cable
had VVDI and CGDI,CGDI is faster and no problem to get PSW:

Question: when we have CGDI tool working all by OBD why lads want the tool to work on the bench???
Answer: For example if car is some further from workshop and you must spent time driving to the car or customer is just TOO far to drive, so then he can sent EIS or drive by himself bringing EIS it with him at workshop. It’s time saver and what if tool will not work via OBD? You will loose many time driving ex. 30 miles x2. If you have on bench, you can work at your place without risk of wasting time. Also calculating psw at the place of car might last 30 minutes, 1 hour in all keys lost? It’s much time to sit in the car + you have to take care of battery charger. If you have on bench, you can drink a coffee or a beer if you want and enjoy the waiting time
Still no tool which can do all merc by OBD anyway…

– W203 with W209 EZS all keys lost, done in the car about 70mn: Successful.

– Calculation PSW always the first time, never fail.

-Plug USB to computer, software recognizes at once. So I take 2 used BE key put in and read. Software say need 12V.
So I plug 12V and read and reset to unused quickly. Will test on bench W209 as key lost later.

CGDI MB tested failure and explanation from CGDI engineer:
CGDI work not on all by OBD
W906 Sprinter don’t work (CGDI Supports W906 only CAN BUS not K-line)
W230 SL55 AMG 2006 dont work (CGDI supports W230 CAN BUS, you can send EIS and CGDI MB tool to factory to add K-line)

3: CGDI MB tokens
CGDI MB tool also work with tokens for password online calculation. free two tokens each day for 6 months.
Test reports: test online calculation, very fast, less than minute. And the counter (10) decrease to 9. Today it become 10 again. So I think for now until 6 months, I can calculate 10 time/day.

4. CGDI MB tool VS Xhorse VVDI in PCB
CGDI MB tool is not VVDI clone, open CGDI and you can see the PCB is complete other than from VVDI and MCU is other than from VVDI !!! CGDI is cheaper than VVDI that’s right!

5. How to update CGDI MB key pro?
Update on http://www.cgprogcar.com/, click column “Download” for the newest update package.

To sum up:
After reading these positive reviews, I am sure you can trust CGDI MB key programmer is decent tool to own.

Where to buy one CGDI mb tool?
There are not only one seller supplys this tool, but I think www.carobd.de is a trustworthy place to buy
