hi

Never, ever, will recomend someone to purchase Abrites too.

I own from long and only troubles:

I purchased from kapdiag, at the begining ok guys, they ship fast and everyting ok.
I got banned once from kapdiag forum for asking a tecnical question...crazy..after some emails I get access back.

Then updates gets payed, ok, payed, then updates not working --> rising a ticket, after a lots of emails, record a video and then asked me to purchase a remote support session for 100€..????
they have a bug and I have to pay for it...

In the middle of this, lots of mails, both from kapdiag and abrites too, one day abrites says ok and next day another abrites guy/girl say the oppposite..wtf.
How a support employer from Abrites can oficialy say something and change his mind?, is this a serious company or some clowns playing games?

About kapdiag, well, what to say, does they think someone purchasing a big figure tool have spare time for nosenses?, they must,
asking for some technical question most of the times end on hard words...is that a support?...I doubt

My experience, very bad support, no trustable company, not for serious bussiness. No garage can afford a serious service with this backoffice.

My two cents, Abrites GTFY.

Sadly KAP a UK distributor, does reflect on Abrites

Why on earth they use KAP. Remember my 1st experience when a middle-eastern accented guy from KAP phoned me back saying what's going on?
Expecting me to purchase from him hard-sell or else. And then their forum was indeed a joke u missed nothing -

Thankfully I went on to purchase direct from Abrites website. Alot of people haven't and recon worse for it.

As for bad support - least support. You try China

----------------------------------

The kit is good on certain makes - do research and look at list of tools i have. G-scan soon!

Hi what other tool have you found as replacement for abrites

**rapidlocksmiths** · 10th July, 2021, 11:06 AM

plenty on some things , nothing on other applications . many tools have caught up on alot of functions , but abrites still the go to tool on alot.

**fuzz1** · 10th July, 2021, 02:51 PM

What about the one from topdon? Or autel are they that far behind?

Autel r more universal and less good on specifics like PSA pin extraction. And not that cheap when think of annual subscription vs Abrites AMS.
Actually trying to do EDC17 on VVDI and useless. Abrites always 1st choice on VAG unless MQB.

Payback on all these tools are getting tougher

**rapidlocksmiths** · 11th July, 2021, 03:03 PM

payback harder due to the messers and price cutters , lower rates mean lower investment pots for many . it will be the messers and the pricecutters that stop future development as developers wont develop if the money falls out of it for them , so they utelise their skills in other industries instead .

That's my understanding. If you're using AVDI for post 2015 JLR, you need to use their keys.

I think there are better solutions for 2015-2019/20.

i remember they changed for all years then turned it back then changed again
so we can still do before 2015 with aftermarket keys lads

I think so. I've a few decent options for pre 2019/20 models, so I only need JLR005. I don't use AVDI for earlier than 2019/20 JLR.
