Today, I’d like to share some reviews on the VXDIAG VCX NANO for Volvo.
First of of, let’s check some VXDIAG VOLVO reviews.
Review 1:
Great device for connecting to VIDA to diagnose my Volvo. Only concern is in the ad it says it compatible with Windows 10. Which VIDA is not. Was able to install VIDA via bootable USB. Other than this inherent issue, nothing to do with this device. Works great. Connects everytime and installed via their software. Do recommend, much more cost effective option and delivers faster than a DICE unit.
Review 2:
The disc they provided doesn’t seem to work well but with some googling you’ll find a pre-setup VM or a easy installer that lets you install this on windows 10. Some people complaining about it not being detected. You need the drivers. Go and download VX Manager. It works like a charm and has already saved me a tone of money with diagnostics.
Review 3:
It’s great. Just be wary that while this will allow you dealer level access to your Volvo, little to no documentation is provided on how to get it going. You need to be computer literate and have great Google skills to get this working. It probably took me a solid 4 hours to get a laptop configured properly, but once I got it working it’s been fantastic.
Review 4:
I recently bought a VXDIAG VCX NANO device which can be used with Volvo’s VIDA software to communicate with Volvos from the early 2000s up to 2014 or so.
The device is claimed to be compatible with Volvo’s DICE hardware.
I chose to buy one of these rather than a DICE or DICE clone because these are a bit cheaper than DICE clones, and I have read that many people have had problems with faulty DICE clones.
I had to wait two months to receive the device from China, but this is fairly typical of deliveries during COVID-19 times.
I first tried to use it with a VIDA installation I had already done using a virtual machine image. It didn’t work, I just kept getting an error message: “ERROR: SDK GetProcAddress!”
Eventually, I decided to actually follow instructions and installed VIDA 2014D from the installation DVD that came with the device. It worked first go.
I later tried again to get it working on the VM but without success. I suspect the problem may be due to the VM running Windows 10 and being 64-bit. The recommendation for VIDA is Windows 7 Professional 32-bit.
Using VIDA I can connect to the car and read its details, fault codes and live data. I can also use the activate feature to turn on and off various systems for testing.
I have not tried any programming.
I also used the device with VDASH2 and it also works fine for reading information and fault codes. I have not tried any programming with VDASH2 either.
So aside from not being able to comment on programming, I can recommend the VX NANO as a cheaper alternative to a DICE clone. Just follow the instructions and know that it may not work on a VM.
Allscanner VXDIAG DONET remote diagnosis requires a 15-digit remote device ID to connect remote device.
If your device is connected to phone HOTSPOT, you will see your device information, and find “DONET Remote ID”, click it to get the ID. Input the ID when you connect device on vx manager.
