    Dusted this tool off and renewed my subscription a while back and i'm glad I did.
    It has read ISN's in odd DME's that other tools have not been able to.
    The support through WhatsApp has also been on point.

    The programmer has also read many Porsche BCM's with zero failures.
    The tool has come a long way since I last looked at it.

    This tool is too cheap for the capabilities. Microtronik wants to flood the market with it. Many remap companies will get very good competition from local garages doing remapping for the third price.
    In general useful toy but would not be so sure doing Porsche 1N35H. You can ask support directly what is the success rate for it.

    I was not to happy with there reply when I was trying to setup ISTA to use with Autohex 2..I really do not like to carry to much equipment as I do alot of mobile work. But I guess I will always bring my ICOM along when doing BMW Jobs.... I would of liked to use Autohex2 with ESYS and Ista..... There response was that since I had Icom better to use that... So I dont think I will be renewing my programming license... I did purchase the hexprog ecu clone license... $1000.00usd ouch.....

    but other then that Its been a great tool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Even with full package if you do not have an active subscription you cannot retrieve long ISN, reset EGS ect ect. even though it says "free for life" on the license it's not free unless you pay for 12 month subscription ��~♂️

    are you sure about that? Because i have asked support in the past and they said subs was for device warranty, updates & programming function (MK database of flash files for updating ecu)

    apart from that its free for life

    the ecu clone license is a one off 1000usd, but then i think it is 350usd for annual subscription

    That is what I was told by autohex support. EGS reset you need to download flash in order to carry out the job so without sub you can't do it.

    this is like doing FEM/BDC where need to flash first, if you dont have programming/coding option, You can use advanced tab and update

    im hoping the same applies for EGS, Would be silly to need to have subs for a "lifetime free" option, Quite contradictory that would be from MK

    or maybe if you have esys to flash egs to latest istep, then you can reset without having subs

    In account it says EGS reset "lifetime free" I was told by Autohex support that this is an error on server and it it not free, I sent screen shot also so there was no confusion as this doesn't make sense to me. Hopefully updating to latest SW would negate the need for online but I'm not to sure about that.

    Turns out your right, however heres the twist, its not just EGS but the whole tool is based on having subs, I mean i wouldnt mind that if it was marketed as "need to have active subs to work" however just dont understand the "lifetime free" marketing when it could not be any further from the truth
