HI everyone.
I just thought to start a new thread for all of you who own, or are considering buying, a GM MDI, just to share experiences, as software, brand compatibility, tips and advice.
All information is appreciated.

Thanks guys

I have an MDI I find it very good on GM for SPS etc but find it very hit and miss with Techstream software. The mongoose cable is far superior for me.

I have read it works well with consult 3? Can anyon confirm this?

I have found a couple of errors on Tech2win that are not on Tech2. When coding keys on a movano and a Corsa C I could not get it to work yet worked first time on Tech2.

MDI Tech2win is far from perfect these have been the only times I have needed it in last two weeks and I needed Tech2 to complete the Job.

I am not sure the Global version I am using as I have both a Saab and Opel Tis2web account.

I was going to buy a MDI but it only does 2 Gm models the Tech 2 can't cause of high speed can and it only about 22% faster in programming. maybe in a couple of years i'll get one but for now I'll keep using the tech2

So J2534, can work with global tis on older car or with tech2 emulator.

Are you aware that we can not program new features in Astra J as we did in Astra H

20th August, 2010, 01:18 PM
In the Software for the Midi ar only new Cars ... Corsa Insigna usw.

In the Globaltis you go to programming ... then the Car that u use ... and then you can change the Hardware in a Window , Tech2 , Tech2 with other option and the Midi .. it works , i have test it over Wlan.

I have problems when connecting to an Astra CID display and it also will not do SPS pass through programming on the CIM, I think these issues are documented though.

Yes there are some issues, but them will be gone with the new mdi sw (it is written in the news-tab of tis2web):
hope so. :smokin:

Hey Wolfpack. What do you mean about MDI only does 2 GM models. I have no problem with any, but one. Saturn.

The tech2 does not support the 2010 camaro and lacross a mdi is needed to run GM GDS software for most module replacement and data stream.

I have lastest version BN of CID, and it's not workingI've done a few KS ones with no problems, never had the need to try a BN one.

With Tech2win is crashes when you connect to the CID, let alone get anywhere near SPS programming.

Hi

I have genuine MDI working perfectly with TEch2Win software for all old OPEL /Vaux and the new Insignia and AStra J. With Global TIS it will do all reprogramming and keys on old cars and the new ones.

What Icant get to work is TEch2Win and SAAB software. When I put the SAAB.bin file in the pcmcia directory Tech2Win opens with an error saying wrong make or something.

Has anyone got a work round for this yet?

Thanks

Hello Guys,

Is any of you have issues with the SPS reprograming? For instance if i wanna update a X18XE to an X18XE1 it comes up as hardware missmatch or if i wanna program a virgin ecu (Z18XE) same problem comes up, but it allows me to update nice and easy.
Any clue why?????

Thank you,

bali

Hi Impactops - so do you have a workround to get SAAB working with MDI? The screenshots you show seems to make me think you do.
Any chance of sharing the fix?

I'm In US and looking for a GM scanner. The Tech II is about twice as much as the MDI, and I prefer the MDI. Problem is will the MDI do everything the Tech II can? I know everything is going to be MDI in the future, but I work on present to 10 year old vehicles. What Can't I do if I bought only a MDI?

The MDI is only used as scanner(with GDS sw) to support some 2010 GM new models & future GM vehicles!

The MDI will not be a future Tech 2 replacement tool to support older GM vehicles!

Hope this helps!

So with GDS it still don't work on past vehicles, only a few 2010 vehicles?
Doesnt TIS2WEB have a Tech II emulator?

GDS/MDI will not support older GM vehicles!!!

Tis2Web is only access via GM dealer site & have no Tech2 emulator!!!

Hope this helps!

In addition what other software can be used apart from Honda and Toyota with it?

The meriva b has always been tech 2 there seems to be some confusion when talking about gds/mdi,currently gds is only for diagnostics with model insignia and astra j .tis2web is for all models current and past, mdi can also be used for current and past. Past models for sps,or full function if using tech2win (mdi software was released last week to deal with all the glitches).
The problem with the movanos is because of the obd pin outs there was also a tsb telling users not to use mdi,apparantly pin 12 on movano is 12v.
Finally if you register with gme-infotech and do the courses then independants can now have access,and this includes security codes.(15 euros).GME are tightning up all its security and software.

firmware is 7.10.84 (nov 2nd) and the mdi needs erased before it will load

You have to do a preparation SPS programming at CIM module with TECH2WIN or TECH2 and after that carry out SPS programming with MDI.
