I'm from a small cluster repair shop in Australia, we are now wishing to take up more modern digital cluster, both with programming odometers and testing clusters, Firstly we are looking for a suitable programming tool for odometers, The brands we commonly see are: - Audi - BMW - Ford - Holden - Honda - Hyundai - Isuzu - Lexus - Mazda - BMW - Mercedes Benz - Mitsubishi - Nissan - Porsche - Subaru - Suzuki - Toyota - Volkswagen Looking around I have seen mention of beeprog, Xprog m and UPA programmer, I am hoping to cover direct eeprom reprogramming via a windows based tool as opposed to a field tool so that we can store and archive the dumps.

Know Directly Tuirel S777

Image
Three weeks ago, I bought Tuirel S777 from OBD365. And I got my package last week, it packed well. I used it to test many cars and now I want to share my experience with you. It can diagnose Audi, Benz, Nissan and so on. Even the old vehicles before 1996 can be also diagnosed by connecting the OBD1 to OBD2 connector (non-16pin cable to 16pin cable). I tried to test 2014year car models, so I downloaded the car software from the office website: http://www.tuireup.com/. I found that it can program keys for Nissan but it can’t work for diesel vehicles. For the 12V car and 12V pickup truck, it’s OK. I can update on official website, and it’s available with much world-wide languages, so it is another tool for world-wide users.   It's much more than an OBDII scanner with multifunction, it approaches and competes with professional auto diagnostic tools. It integrates the needs of DIY users and professionals with selectable vehicle software and high frequency of update. Tu...
