Don't tell us what each tool does. Show us what D9 Pro can do that D8 can't.

[@othmangameshow7170]

i have d9 pro and yah its have all that cool things but when you want to use any of the cooding/programing special fetcher its just not working at all i spend alot of money and i falt ito this crape scam so its not worth 1usd for what i get and i go back to my old launch x431 .to be ownest it work with OBD2 code reading thast it nothing elese . this it the stubides 1000usd+ spend in my live

[@roadguyser]

I thought the paper list was helpful.

[@bofbolts]

The D9 is a beautiful unit, but certainly not worth the upgrade from a D8 given the very limited added functionality. A few things important to note not covered in the video: 1) The D8BT (bluetooth) can NOT be wired in the event the BT fails. However, the D9 CAN be wired if the BT fails. You can mitigate this risk by buying D8 wired version. 2) ECU Programming is available on the D8 but limited to VW/Audi/Skoda. ECU Programming on the D9 is expanded to BMW, Mazda, Benz, Ford, VW/Audi/SKODA. 3) D9 has the topology scanning to see the network diagram - hopefully this may come to the D8 one day as an update. 4) D9 screen is roughly 1" larger than the D8. 5) D9 PRO has 42 special functions, the D8 has 38. The list in the video is incorrect. Here are the extra special functions the D9 offers; Adblue Reset, Nox Reset, VIN Write, ODO true value read. Overall, the cost difference, and or upgrade difference is in my opinion not worth the upgrade. The list of additional special functions are not commonly used.

D9 also has DoIP support

[@djwilson48625]

I JUST sat down and compared the D8, D9, AND D9 PRO on both of my ('05 & '13) F150's on their site. Scroll down to the bottom of their page, tap on (I think it says) functions.. Here's what I learned: As you look at the columns, with active tests, etc, they all 3 do the same tests. Each column is the same on each row. It's the "Programming" column that caught my eye. The pro showed programming on most modules. They didn't say exactly WHAT programming, but there's atleast SOME programming. Is it worth the $400 or so difference? That's your call. I can't vouch for the programming abilities exactly, but some is better than none.

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

@Dj Wilson you can also write vin numbers to ecus that you replace. that alone is worth it, in my opinion.

[@bofbolts]

So interestingly enough, they don’t advertise or show the extent of D8 programming properly. If you email XTOOL support they provide you more info then they advertise.

[@bofbolts]

@@ERICSDIYGARAGE true, if you’re doing ECU swaps often enough, rewriting VIN’s is pretty useful.

[@waynespringer501]

You meant to say "The links below take you to the Amazon Link that gives me a commission" There's nothing "genuine" about it.

[@gorebels2009]

I own the D8BT. As a DIYer I couldn’t justify twice the price for the hardware and twice the yearly update fee for the few functions the D9 offers that the D8 does not.

[@ax5017]

How do you like your D8BT? I'm debating D8BT or D7

After looking at my functions on the D8, I currently have "clutch adaption, HV battery, EGR relearn, FRM reset,VGT relearn, rain/light sensor, reset control unit, A/C relearn, speed limit, SRS.

[@macbook802]

Exactly

[@WIZEMART]

Comparison list of the functions which came as a factory install - basic and then you can install software updates later on D8 and they pop up??? *Market trick?*

[@radoslavcekov2067]

What is the difference between d9pro and h6 pro master. And is it worth changing my launch with one of the devices on Xtool? I mainly work with bmw ,benz and vw group. Thanks in advance

[@Fabian-yg5oo]

You may want to revisit your special features/function list for updated information. The Xtool D8 has 38 special functions vs the 28...

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

D9 has 42 services

[@kevincoulimbe3974]

Well the d.8. all you got to do is upgrade $35 for each one of those so what they spent 250 bucks and now it's still cheaper and now you have all the functions as D 9 you can tell customer that all your viewers in instead of making them pay $1,500 for a d8 no one could pay another $800 just cuz it's Bluetooth

[@fernandohood5542]

Ask why the voltage of the oxygen sensor or MAF sensor are missing for the toyota 1zzfe while the cheapest autel has them?

[@johnjauregui3528]

Don't expect these Chinese xTools to work for American vehicles older than about 2005. They ignored my request to update their data profiles for my 1999 F-250 7.3 and my 2001 Dodge Dakota. Go with almost any American made scan tool if you have an older vehicle.

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

I thought the D9 was Bluetooth enabled and it came with a vci as well as the d9 pro.

[@737mechanic]

Both the D9 and D9 Pro are both wireless Bluetooth. The D9 Pro comes with ECU programming capabilities on VW, Mercedes, BMW, and offline ECU programming on Ford, Mazda while XTOOL D9 does not.

[@astutenomad2879]

Could someone please give me a straight answer. 2002 jaguar x-type: all keys lost ecu coding and cluster programming. Does the D8 do it? The manufacturer hasn't got back to me. I mainly work on older jaguar.

[@sylkelster]

Will need to buy Xtool KC100 or KC501 key programmer accessory to be used with D8 to program keys.

[@iamjackalope]

What does the ECM programing do? Can it turn off the seatbelt dinger?

[@SilvexPhoto]

Both D8 and D9 pro had major updates. D9S does J2534 and ECU programming the D8S does not.

It barely works with certain functions for Asian vehicles also I wanted to reset my transmission and there is no function for that for my Asian vehicle because my transmission is shifting hard I was expecting to be able to reset my transmission but surprise surprise nothing there for that talking about the D8

[@amiralshoq]

Yes, there is a kilometer adjustment feature, but it does not work in most modern American, Japanese, European, Korean, Chinese cars. There are tools that are cheaper than this device and practically beat it I regret buying it

HI Can the device D9 PRO program the tire system? For example, if I wanted to adjust the tire pressure from 35PSI to 30PSI, so that the alarm would sound when the air was less than 30PSI instead of sounding the alarm when it was less than 35PSI.

How is this compared to the new icon t8 ? And also if I don’t want to update the D9 pro, will it still keep all its functionality? Or will it lose some features

It appears that the screen contrast differs between the two. Is the screen quality as good on the D9 compared to the D8?

A separate scope would be more useful. That way screen clutter is minimized and processing power will be apportioned between two diagnostic units. Rigol has good bang for buck scopes and even the 4 channel models aren't prohibitive in cost.
