Best KC501 review! Thanks and I just subscribed!

[@marcs8653]

Thank you for this excellent review/tutorial,, I paused this video to comment and to subscribe,, I am looking to buy the ps90 diagnostic scanner and this video definitely caught my attention as well. looking forward to watching more of your vids and learning along the way. Thanks again for sharing.

[@joshrios459]

So I bought the x100 max and I'm having one heck of a time getting it to work with any Audi. I've tried it with a 2007 Audi B7 RB4 cluster over OBD in the car with 0 success I could not read the pin I could not read the e-promp I could not adapt the mileage. I have also tried on a 2006 a4 RB8 cluster 0 success there, I've also tried a 2001 Audi A4 without being able to read the eeprom over OBD with no success as well as a 2003 Audi a6 with 0 success I'm kinda wondering if anything more works. When I tried to do a full diagnostic to my car seems as if the unit timed out and would t continue to scan.

I got the XTOOL ip616,I got the XTOOL x100 pads and kc501 and it won't work on 2004 mercades C240 w209 EIS

[@ChetJang]

Can this unit be used to clone a Subaru WRX STI ECU? Unclear from manufacturer's description. If it can't can you recommend a tool that will?

[@VoltageDropDiagnostics]

Nice shirt! Haha thanks man! Also, I’m gonna check that tool out! Looks like it might come in handy at times!

[@HouseCallAutoRepair]

I agree Pat!

[@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706]

Appreciate the shirt PJ! I’ll keep you posted how the tool performs on keys.

[@Jpilgrim30]

I’ve been using the im508 with the xp400 pro and it’s been great. Thinking about getting the andromeda research eeprom programmer as their programmer can work with the eeprom in circuit where others can’t a lot of the time. Plus, they have built in templates for airbag crash data and such. It’s a great little kit.

[@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706]

I’ve got the AR32, it’s a great tool and my first grab for eeprom.

[@Jpilgrim30]

@@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706 nice to know. I’ll be ordering mine in the next few days. How is the coverage as far as the airbag crash data templates go?

[@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706]

@@Jpilgrim30 it’s decent. If ar32 doesn’t have it then I use the bin file and use Tacosoft to clear the data.

Nice video! Pls between xtool pad3 and autel mp808 which one is better? Thanks in addy

[@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706]

The autel mo808 and xtool/pad3 are completely different tools. The xtool and oad3 are focused on immobilizer functions, while the mp808 is just a code reader with some data pids and no bi directional control

[@ETPAK]

Good video. I have D9 xtool. I just bought KC501. How KC501 works with D9. Any help will be appreciated.

[@MrRohanstar]

Whats the whats the price on that tool

[@calholli]

So should we get the Pad 3 or the xtool D8? They seem to be very similar.

[@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706]

That all depends on what you are hoping to accomplish with the addition of the tool.

[@mohamedadam816]

What is more better and useful..xtool a80 pro master of autel maxisys im608

Is the pad 3 worth it for key programming, does it actually work, thinking bout ordering it for key programming

[@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706]

It’s a decent key programmer, I like it.

It’s vork for Xtool d7?

[@orkhanmamedov8903]

Hello there! Blessings! Autel im508 and xtool pad 3, with emulator and programmer. Which is the more capable on AKL situation for smart Keys(especially Hyundai,Ford,Chevrolet Cruze, Malibu (same capabilities for Toyota with emulator on both)) They are completely same or there is any kind difference? What you recommend i consider!

[@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706]

The im608 pro will do more then the xtool

[@Azkeyguy]

So all in all on the immobilization side of things it's pretty comparable to the auto pro pad or does it have some limitations? At least as far as USA models, Hard to find any info on it online, thanks!

[@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706]

This is pretty compared to app. I haven’t found any differences between this tool and my app as far as vehicle coverage

[@engrprincetonykingstonnwac6044]

@@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706 What app are you talking about please

[@Verboz]

I have this tool and I don't see anywhere that shows you the car battery voltage. Do you know if it has that functionality? If yes where do I get that info?

[@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706]

The battery voltage will be a pid in the scanner area

[@Verboz]

@@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706 Thanks for your response. So it will just be on screen? Or will I have to click something to get to it?

How does this match up to the AutoPropad???

[@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706]

It’s basically the same tool honestly

[@darionherbert8449]

Can the full functionality of the KC501 be utilized on the xtool D8?

[@codysautodiagnosticsprogra8706]

I don’t believe so

[@SilvexPhoto]

According to Xtool. The D8 series works with KC100 and KC501. The D7 series does not.

No sir it can only be used with the newest pad they offer. I’ve tried to use it on my auto pro pad and it was unsupported

Nice tool Cody . I have zero experience with X-tool but I think I have said this before . I use the 608 with the xp pro and I think that´s enough in my case . Have fun with it
