Xhorse is transforming automotive key programming by launching a free 5C/5D upgrade for the KEY TOOL PLUS. This update extends device compatibility, boosts workflow versatility, and highlights VVDI's ongoing commitment to adopting modern vehicle security technologies.
Key Improvements in the 5C/5D Upgrade
The upgrade centers on better support for Volkswagen Group models, covering brands like Volkswagen, Skoda, Audi, and Porsche. With these enhancements, technicians can manage a broader variety of smart key situations with improved precision and speed.
Enhanced 5C Key Compatibility
For 5C systems, the KEY TOOL PLUS now works with both VVDI smart keys and original keys, irrespective of whether they are locked or unlocked. This provides locksmiths with greater adaptability in handling diverse key states and client needs.
Current 5D Key Functionality
In the case of 5D systems, the tool presently supports only original keys. VVDI has signaled further progress in this domain, establishing a reliable base for subsequent updates.
Advanced Reading Capabilities with KEY TOOL PLUS
A notable aspect of this upgrade is the maintained support for KEY TOOL PLUS soldered reading. This enables experienced users to interface directly with compatible modules when necessary.
VVDI has also stated that solder-free adapter reading is in development and will be introduced in the near future. This anticipated feature aims to simplify challenging tasks and lower risks associated with data extraction processes.
