    agree mate , they have upset many customers with their licence jiggles and their money grabbing and driven many customers elsewhere , but its still a great tool that pays for itself over and over again , others though have caught up with avdi on many functions so their sales will take a hit , but i still use mine daily and still the go to tool on alot.
    market has changed , cheap rules the day , its sad in many ways as its the decline of the whole trade

    Real problem are 'Startups' - they buy the tools yet struggle to find work. Then come on forum and moan - we've all done it myself included

    get impression it's working but i'll never touch it cos won't risk aftermarket diagnostics on these as my SDD won't go up to this year - replaced with JLR new system. I maybe daft thinking this way but Abrites killed 2 KVMs in my early days

    BTW
    Love the title of this thread tho, alternatively it could be " DK members shafting Abrites "
    with likes of FVDI blatant clone

    Abrites legal department needs to be more like Instacode
