I had it less than a week and exceeded the limits,junk. Hardly any special functions.got burned on an mdi2 as well.. not fucking happy either

I have a 2016 equinox. Mine isnt clicking but 2 times now ive been driving with ac on and it starts blowing hot air like ive turned the heat on. Few seconds later, it blows cold again. Is this a blend door issue?

When y’all are disconnecting The quick connect at the tank you should disconnect fuel pump and crank the bike over in neutral to get the fuel pressure down so you don’t blow your seals out I just did that and had to spend the rest of the day replacing both lines

Bosch 525x.. check this out you're going to need autoauth for 2012 + for any vehicle for programming modules, key programming, the interface will program u have to tie to a lap top i5 16gig or better bosch is 1 of if not the biggest manufacturer of automotive computers gm has everything locked down. GM software "dealership" is like $60 for 3 days along with the autoauth in order to bypass the security gateway. The 525x I can hooked to Diesel " hd semi's" with and adapter cord and does more then the average 800 hd dioanostic tools out there. They make a great product. All Chevy GM vehicles Bosch, a text 2 clone., and or and interface with gmwin2 once again through Bosch 525x 3500 2yrs ago now new in box 1600 max sometimes 1350 range all the chev vehicles u have you won't regret it

Thanks for sharing your experience

Thank you VERY much! You did not disappoint. This is a WAY cheaper and easier solution than what I had planned. I will be building the same. 👍🏼

commenting on a 3 year old video. your measurement may not be 100T accurate, but it IS scientific method. you measured your constant pool temp, before heating. then measured the two variables and made a comparison.

I’m aware this is a very old video but how did you remove the timing chain to get the head off?

Thanks

I bought some LED replacements for my 1141 incandescents, but the box says 1156, and they don’t seem to work. I thought 1141 and 1156 were interchangeable.

Just made me 100$!

Hey Brother, I too ran into Launch USA not supporting my X431 V !!!!! And the reason I bought it was just like you "Supports IMMO and key Re-programming" Ha !!! And when try to get support I should say "Text support only" you better hope it's not on a Chineese holiday!!! DON'T BUY YOUR DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS ON AMAZON Like we did. Thanks for making a video on it. Can I ask what you are using today?

Well, I have the launch x431 pro3s. Was bought with the 2 year free updates, well needless to say, it only came with 1 year. I contacted them, which isn't the US company. I didn't know that either! I have been less than impressed with it. As long as it isn't connected to wifi, I can use all the previous installed software, the minute it's connected 90% of everything is blocked. So frustrated

IF you have OBD1, you can use Tuner Pro for free. You can even flash chips with it.

i bought my from bidfta chinese only support usa same problem 3 cars only read one 09 07 but 04 f150 work very limted not worth the money scamers

I agree piece of shit don’t work on 09 hhr it sucks support is worthless

It never made it to the middle or the other side

I just got the X-431 Pro3 Apex and it did everything on a 1998 Merc CLK320 in EU. Launch is better in EU cars and Autel better in USA only cars. Launch is the biggest and oldest scanner tool. It also best for price. Autel is a freakin ripoff and would not scan simple 2003 VW Polo in EU but Launch sees all functions in the VW. Topdon is a new small co. and so is Xtool. Stick with Launch.

That’s the easy one. Wish I can find a video showing step by step to remove baseboard and get the one that’s deep inside the compartment..

You have a lot of faith in that winch/hoist mount above your head! 😁

Insulate.the roof inside.to.capture heat around coil

Can you put a good door closer on that slamming door???? Prevent that vibration???

Purchase a Launch x431 in June 2023. $1,400 us dollars. After testing on multiple cars and contacting there customer service i was told its not capable of programing a BCM for a 2017 Gm, but it was advertised as it would. I when the route you took, let me contact Launch. Was told the same thing, China unit they dont support. Sorry, good buy. Unfortunately, Tom is passed and I was unable to return. My biggest frustration I’ve just tried it on a dodge ram Chrysler product and I’m unable to get through the security Gateway because this is a offbrand unit not US made. I believe launch does have skin in a game. It’s their name on it. Same product, they’re just getting there sales up and running there products name. I wont buy or rexommend there product.

Again, awesome update. thanks for being honest, subscribed because you deserve it for the assist!

Legend. Just followed this, exact same issue with my 2010 … got to end of my street in downpour and they just stopped lol. wtf.

Ishpeming and Dollar Bay yoopers! That's us. Let's crack a tin or grab a packie 😊

Are these not the same as the ones for a chevy 5.7? I had a 99 chevy tahoe and it looks the same

Tightening torque cylinder head bolts??

SWEET!!!

How did u take the head out 😊

he didn't tell us about aligning the rods which causes the wipers to hit each other

Old video, I know, but an update for the x431immo. Bought in Feb 2024 for the specific reason to offer customers key adding and programming. Payed around 1,500 for the tool and the immo. It specifically says it can read the immo pin code to add keys, etc. The first key job came in for a 2012 town and country. Used the tool, and it wouldn't read the immo pin to add a new key fobik. Called Launch customer service to be told it was a software issue on their end. I should've just ponied up the extra 600 bucks and bought the Autel. I have seen folks having the same issue with the X431 with the J port. Wont do ecu reprogramming. I wouldn't recommend these tools. They are more geared towards foreign cars.

The red and yellow cable is for the module.

Cambell enterprise does that work to the cylinder

I can understand your frustration. As a multi tool distributor based in the southern hemisphere. This is an issue we run into daily, the tool brand be it Launch, Autel or whoever gets a bad wrap because of these online vendors. They sell unauthorised versions of these tools into countries that they are not specified for (incorrect software) thus the tool getting a bad name. As a distributor same as launch tech USA we are unable to support these units generally because the manufacturer will not support it through our channel because it is not a unit they sold to us to onsell, as much as we would like to help. As for price yes your country based distributors might cost a few hundred dollars more than Amazon and the reason behind that is because we need to be able to cover the costs of onsite training, tech support & software development. You might be a few hundred out of pocket at the start but this is a two way street, you get someone to call when the tool doesn't carry out a certain function and we have a channel of feedback to log these issues to improve the tool so everyone wins in the long run. But I do agree the term ecu programming is used too blatantly. Most modern vehicles require j2534 programming with OE software.

A little late to the party as usual. If you want the full capabilities you are looking for as far as IMMO and automotive key programing in the US, you need to be a member and certified with NASTF.

Put year of bike in video description.

You can get the launch x431 immo plus with the key coding tool but the screen is only 8inch same as the AUTEL 508s

Brilliant video mate i have just brought a bran new launch x431 pro plus diagnostic tool off ebay over £1000 and it would not even let me connect to the car i was on it for hours couldn't find the vin number either plus it did not even come with the key coding tool thats a extra £500 and it would not to a topology mapping MODULES test either its gone back to ebay

Thank you very much and greetings from Germany.

Works well for 03 6 liter powerstroke , 6.4 , 6.7

How do you set the valves

I really like the unistrut with a bolt on each side. I haven't seen that version before... I'm also going to be bolting mine directly into the ceiling joists and I don't like the brackets that most people use that drop the unistrut down a couple inches from the ceiling as my garage ceiling is fairly low; I was thinking about a deeper channel and just bolting through the holes into the joists, but the unistrut you use uses 2x the lag bolts and that gives me a bit more confidence.

On bmw only work on msv90 on msv80 not working on Mercedes 2009 up to 2018

This was a nice review thank you

Perfect... Exactly what I need. Thanks

Xtool d8 is quite good at immo.. it was seven hundred when I bought it in 2022. now I've seen it around for under five hundred.. and they have also upgraded it to have topology. It's better than most at immo though. Says it has ecu and eeprom programming. But I've never used it. There are bluetooth and wlan versions now that cost a little more. The original D8 is direct wired.. which I prefer

Mine is a 2013 and they just stopped working this morning, in the middle of winter of course.

there 2 version and you probably got the one for foreign cars or the listing did not specify
