Dear Customers,
As is traditional when spring turns to summer, we would like to introduce our plans for the upcoming months so that you can know what to expect from us:
Peugeot/Citroen
There is some very exciting news for the Abrites Diagnostics for Peugeot/Citroen. There are two main points that we are looking to add to our software:
- PIN code reading and mileage recalibration of vehicles with Delphi BSI (2016+). Such models include, but are not limited to 308 II (facelift), C4 II, C4 Picasso II, 3008 II, 5008 II, C3 III
- Improved basic diagnostics for the latest PSA models including better DTC recognition, clearer live data, etc.
Renault
In line with continuing to be at the forefront for developing the best diagnostic products for Renault, we are expecting to add PIN Code reading and key programming for Renault Koleos II, Renault Kadjar and Dacia Duster II over the next few months.
FCA Group
We have a lot of exciting things planned for the future development of the ABRITES Diagnostics for FCA. Here are some highlights of our plans for the coming months:
- PIN Code reading/Key programming and mileage recalibration for Alfa Romeo Giulia and Alfa Romeo Stelvio
- PIN Code reading/Key programming for FIAT 500X/Jeep Renegade with mechanical key
KIA/Hyundai
We have some very exciting news regarding the development of the Abrites Diagnostics for KIA/Hyundai. The product is extremely reliable as it DOES NOT use a database and covers even the latest models (MY 2019). The following upgrades are planned in the coming months:
- PIN Code reading from DENSO Smart Systems
- PIN Code reading from Engine Control Units – this will allow key programming for vehicles with mechanical keys
In order to further improve the stability of the product and number of supported vehicles, the PIN Code reading for KIA/Hyundai vehicles will require internet connection.
Ford
We are expecting to have full support for the latest Ford Fiesta (2018+) and all models that are based on the same platform such as the new Ford Kuga. This will include:
- Module exchange and adaptation
- Key programming
- Mileage recalibration
TAG Key Tool
We will be looking to add the FBS4 keys to the Key Inspector special function. Unlike the older FBS3 keys, they contain a lot of information such as:
- Vehicle mileage
- Information on when the vehicle was last driven
- DTCs in certain modules
Subaru
We are currently working on key programming for all models with the new smart system (after 2016). A full list can be found below:
- WRX
- WRX STI
- Ascent
- Legacy
- Impreza
- BRZ
- Outback
- XV/Crosstrek
- Forester
VAG
In order to achieve better stability and reliability, we have begun transferring the VAG software to the new cloud platform. This will allow us to achieve the following aims:
- Faster and more reliable basic diagnostics such as DTC reading and live data
- New and improved guided functions
- Ability to introduce more complex special functions in the future
