VXDIAG VCX SE Not Connect with Renault Clip V222 Solution
Problem:
I got the vxdiag vcx se with Renault active license. My Renault Clip 222 version cannot detect vxdiag cable. i need older or newer version or patch or something driver from vxdiag? i have no clue what problem is. Any advice?
Solution:
You need version V219. The Renault driver is not ready for newer versions (V222/V237) yet.
1. Run Install Fix
2. Install SOFTWARE
3. Install Bosch Driver
4. Install VCI Driver
5. Registration SOFTWARE
Renault uses a separate VCI driver. Install the driver separately, you don’t need to install vx manager.
VXDIAG VCX SE vs Godiag J2534 Which to Choose?
Godiag brand launched a super cheap J2534 cable (Godiag GD101 J2534) which works for many brands. Which is better to choose? VXDIAG VCX SE or the Godiag J2534?

Both devices can be used as j2534 interface for multiple software, Techstream, HDS, ODIS, etc. Also compatible with 3rd party software pcmflash, bitbox etc. They should work on any diagnose software meeting SAE j2534 passthru regulations device.
The difference is that VXDIAG not only works as J2534 passthru but also as an emulator. VXDIAG will emulate software like OEM VCI.
Godiag J2534 just works as j2534 passthru.
Here are some test reports from godiag users:
-It works well with pcmflash.
-Not well with HDS. Live data disconnect every 10 seconds.
– is not fully compatible with Techstream even after using their drivers.
-Xentry passthru is a hit or-miss. cannot access to all modules.
-works with Renault and Nissan software but needs to replace registry
– godiag works with odis without problem
– get godiag j2534 and used it with GM sps2 with my paid subscription BUT it wouldn’t program everything, only some of the modules I tried worked.
-I’ve tried a GoDiag J2534 Nano with Nissan Consult 3 Plus. I could not get it to work. It refuses to connect to the car made in Japan.
If you need something just to see fault codes, then Godiag j2534 works fine. It is very cheap. But this is not a universal tool for performing any functions.
Godiag cannot and will not perform any setting changes, cannot communicate with a vast # of computers etc and you cannot do any programming with it.
While the VXDIAG VCX SE can be used as J2534 passthru device for OEM online programming. Godiag does not support DoIP protocol while VXDIAG does. VCX SE also allows to connect via WiFi and WLAN. Godiag connects via USB only.
VXDIAG VCX SE Benz and 2024.06 Xentry Review
Here comes the latest user review on VXDIAG VCX SE Benz DoIP device and 2024.06 Software.
“I religiously use the VXDiag VCX SE every day for Mercedes-Benz.
VCX SE works great, but if you buy better hardware with serial number: V94SE*, you can add a license for another brand. Passthu works with all devices.
The C6 License is great and works flawlessly with Xentry and DTS Monaco 8.
It works just fine and very fast. You can use them with various OEM software.
The information that it doesn’t work with Openshell is not true. It works with both Xentry Openshell and Xentry Passthry just fine.
VCX SE works well with XENTRY OpenShell. It can also be configured to work perfectly with Vediamo and DTS Monaco 8/9.
I’ve been using it for a couple of weeks now and am very pleased. I’ve had some problems, but they’re usually software related, not device related. They also have WhatsApp customer support if needed and you can pay for PayPal.
Convenient to use with Xentry instead of multiple interfaces. Just last night I updated Xentry to 06.2024 and there are no problems with VCX SE. It does not work with an old Mercedes cars, but with a newer and decent laptop it works very fast. However, some older ECUs cannot be read using this interface.
I successfully swapped my head unit and activated premium ambient light using
this device. Worked fine with DTS 8.16 and 9 and is ok for all my needs. I used
always USB connection.
Should you have troubles with communication with the
device, check Windows firewall rules. The problem can also be solved using
Windows energy options and adapter settings.
VXDIAG VCX SE works great with Xentry OpenShell XDOS 06/2024 on new cars, can use Ethernet/USB/Wi-Fi, very fast connection, recommend.”
