Question: How to choose an affordable Honda diagnostic scanner then you can easily and quickly determine the cause of the check engine light in my car? I am considering vxdiag and the HIM clone with double-board?
Comparison and Suggestion:
Affected VXDIAG HDS Scanners:
VXDIAG VCX SE Pro with optional 3 car software incl. HDS
VXDIAG VCX SE Full with HDS license
VXDIAG VCX DoIP full with HDS license
VXDIAG VCX Plus FORD MAZDA HONDA JLR 4 in 1
VXDIAG VCX Plus TOYOTA HONDA Land Rover Jaguar 3 in 1
Operating system:
HDS for HIM better loaded on Win7, some tested Win10 success well
VXDIAG HDS Win7 Win8 Win10 all testing working no issue
Software
VXDIAG Honda latest software comes to V3.103.048, multi-language, Free software updates
Software including
HIM currently use HDS software version V3.103.066,, multi-language , Free software updates
HIM HDS does not contain i-HDS and J2534 Rewite program.
i-HDS is used for newer >2017 and more. so VXDIAG will work on both new and old Honda.
HDS can’t access new Honda IMMO anymore. You will need i-HDS installed.
The J2534 Rewrite software is meant for the North American market. The Rewrite software allows to update powertrain models such as PCM and TCM.
A subscription to the i-HDS and J2534 pass-thru device (i.e vxdiag) can access more functions
Function:
they perform same functions, full system diagnostic, live data, Special functions – changing of permissible settings of blocks, programming etc.
VXDIAG HDS can do ECU reprogramming and IMMO key programming with i-HDS subscription.
Suggestion:
If you are a DIYer or a Honda car owner, surely HIM clone is your choice. The biggest advantage of vxdiag HDS is that you are allowed to add multi-brand software into one single device, Benz xentry, BMW ISTA, Toyota TIS, JLR SDD, GM GDS2/T2W, Subaru SSM. VXDIAG HDS is your best choice if you are a professional technician.
