In conclusion:

SD C4 Plus Doip is the not cheapest, but it owns the advantages below:

1.It’s optimized on the basis of the original hardware, to solve the problem of the dead whiteboard caused by the upgrade test in actual use.

2.The official diagnostic test model is continuously updated to support all old cars and new DOIP models with functions exceeding MB SD C4, C5 Doip and Benz VCI C6.

3.All C4 PLUS are tested by 24V supply in 24 hours without interruption before leaving the factory. More than 90% of the IC is guaranteed to be original, especially the main control and relay are guaranteed to be 100% original material, which improves product stability and reduces use. Failure rate, the product has undergone multiple rounds of self-diagnostic tests before leaving the factory, real vehicle CAN and K-line ECU tests, programming and coding, and DOIP tests to ensure consistency of all products before leaving the factory.

That’s all! Hope it helps!

How to Solve VW Amarok Caddy 2018+ Remote Not Working After Programming

Here comes the general problem of VW Amarok Caddy etc. 2018+ UDS protocol vehicles: 2019 VW Caddy. I spent a few hours programming the Xhorse key using VVDI2 . Also tried TDB1000. Remote function could not be obtained. Every time the programming failed, the original remote stopped working until I scanned and cleared errors. I expected it to work when the transponder was added (Megamos AES). I can’t access remote learning with any of my tools, nor did vvdi2 let me program the remote. I was wondering if anyone could confirm remote learning with transponders or how to learn it if not. Solution: It is not possible for BH remote controls after 2018 at the latest.

There is no after-market solution, VAG blocked the remote channel on UDS vehicles 2018+. Had the exact same issues with new caddies. So merchant key and Odis ATM since the c...
