X6/V8 Key Code Cutting Machine

[autoTkey]

The Chinese didn't release any newer database than that and probably never will update it. We will have to satisfy with it. Probably they will release a new machine(with different DB) sometime in the future when it suits them and if they can hack another original.

By the way does anyone have intel which is the manufacturing factory of this machine? I see only resellers...

When I bought my machine I was offered v2014 free and v2015 pay extra. Now I see on the resellers, dealers selling v2015 for free and v2016 pay extra. I thing new version exist but don't know the difference so it may be just marketing hack or it's improved with more blades or cutting culture and precision. If somebody buy recently the machine it must have new database so please share and I will test and compare to older version.

I'll make sure to check in January when my new machine arrives.

Could we get a list of keys that will need to have code cutting adjusted?

redliner has said HU64 required adjustments on the various cuts.

I know GM single sided VATS(GM H key I believe) cuts 1mm above all cuts. To fix this I adjusted the cutter size from 2mm to 1mm still using the 2mm bit and it cut great then.

HU64 need adjust for sure and VA6/VA2 can't remember if all but for the Citroen C1 or Aygo with B series code for sure. The blades with big tolerance are Ok. I can't remember if there is more, I cutting most popular Euro cars only.
Fiat Sip22 blade don't need adjust but cuts from machine is bad so I advice to cut form PC software.

As redliner said:

HU64 need for sure Adjustement.
HU66 and Sip22 works good without.

You have to play with it if key is not cut good.
Decoding keys is very bad. I always decode keys several times before cutting.

Did you try to change speed controller?

I just connected power directly to motor and using an old 12 v battery to run motor, it took me 5 minutes and back to business again

Lads just want to know can this machine duplicate original keys?

You cannot get a simple YES/NO answer for this machine. It has the options in the menu but for each key it's different.

If you have the key in hand you can place in the machine for decoding the blade, after that if you choose cut you will get the option displayed as on the picture.

Yes, it is available for every key but this doesn't mean it can do it. There are many keys which it just reads wrong. So just don't rely on this machine for duplicating.

[redliner]

I just show how it looks like from the machine. We know and was already said from previous posts that this machine is not so good with key decoding. I did not check many different blades for decoding but has only problem with VA2 HU83 decoding wrong at all. Sometimes machine can display number 5 in a 4 level blade but it can be changed manually to nearest and should be fine.

For duplikate key you can buy any machine, my main interest is all key lost (cut from key code).

Do you recommend this machine?

[autoTkey]

It depends - if you work a lot all-key-lost(few per day) you'd better head for a Condor or a Miracle. But if you only do it occasionally(few per week) then this one should be perfect.
