What CGDI BMW Can Do that Autel IM608 Cannot Do?

Thinking to buy Autel IM608 or CGDI BMW?
What can cgdi do that autel can’t do?

Cgdi Bmw Vs Autel Im608

For example save your ass when autel can’t when your FEM/BDC will get properly stuck in programming mode.
Got one module (BDC) which got coding pulled etc by different tool, as tried first time OBD, always did it on bench in past and that didn’t do upgrade correctly, CGDI BMW got it sorted without any issue in few mins, when few other tools couldn’t even connect
There was no igntion etc, and it wasn’t a common clicking eeprom fault.

 

CGDI can do coding and programming for CAS 1 to 3 and all F and G series.
Sometimes clicking is not due to eeprom being corrupt it can be due to programming failure after eeprom has been altered. CGDI can fix this by powering the eeprom to prevent clicking and then reprogramming can be done. All without desoldering. Basically it can program FEM BDC from scratch using VIN number. Autel can’t do this yet.
It’s very good at doing cas3++ isap obd and recoding the 9389115.

 

CGDI will also connect to ICOM to use ISTA and E-sys functions. Autel cannot. 

How to use CGDI Prog BMW ICOM Function?

 

The IM608 has more value if you buy the bundle kit that comes with the APB112 Key simulator and the GBOX2. But if you need a starting tool for just BMW vehicles, CGDI BMW is a good choose.

 

Here are come user review:

1).

I have IM608II, vvdi prog, multi prog, vvdi2, key tool max, key tool plus, Lonsdor 518, Abrites, OBDStar, KM100, CGDI BMW. And maybe more I’ve forgotten about. I highly recommend CGDI for doing BMW though. It was recommended to me by a highly experienced locksmith and I’ve been very pleased with how it works. Very user friendly.

 

3). I’ve done many downgrade no problems. make sure you have battery connected to proper power when downgrading. no worries because if something happens to cas during downgrade, you can use cgdi to fix cas, tried it by disconnecting cable during downgrade, killed cas, and restored with cgdi. good product.
