Nice video. A lot of great information on the ATEQ.
At 6:10 there was a mistake I would like to correct. You said Autel only works with Autel sensors, but that is wrong. What Autel’s website and manuals state is the tool can’t program blank sensor from other brands that come without an ID.
This only matters if you want to have duplicate sensor IDs for say summer/winter tires where you don’t want to complete the OBDII relearn process every 6 months when your rotate out tires. Or you are trying to skip the relearn OBDII process when installing a new TPMS sensor (duplicating the ID is helpful at skipping this step).
Otherwise the Autel does work with all other sensors which the website and manual does say which wasn’t covered in this video.
Example, if you buy a Denso TPMS sensor that already comes with an ID code programmed in it then all you do with the Autel after installing the new Denso sensor in the tire is run the relearn process, scan all 4 tires in the correct order, plug it into the car OBDII, turn on the car (not the engine), load the new locations and codes into your car ECU and then turn of the car and unplug. This is same process for ATEQ or any other scanning tool.
You also have to do the same thing with a blank TPMS sensor regardless of scanning tool… unless you are copying the ID from a replaced sensor. Like I said earlier.
If you want to buy any brand blank programmable sensor because you are doing a lot of copying codes then ATEQ is great if you don’t mind paying >$100 a year on updated software. If your customers require you to have the tool because they are bringing in their own sensor for you to program it makes sense to buy the ATEQ and just pass the cost on to them for the updating program fee.
If you are able to tell your customers which programmable sensor you stock, you don’t need to program other brand blank sensors, and you don’t want to pay the $100 a year you can save yourself and your customers some coin then go with Autel.
Personably at home for me I have 4 on one car year round, and 4 on winter tires, and 5 on summer tires for another where I rotate the 5th tire in during rotation so I have to do the relearn process every time anyways. The Autel works great for this and is less upfront cost and less ongoing cost.
If I had to do it again I’d still go Autel. If I had to program different brand sensors then I would have went ATEQ and increase cost to customers to cover the annual ongoing expense.
Hope my input helps some of you.
This comment is the best explanation I have read on this in the last 3 days of researching which tool to buy. THANK YOU!
Thanks for the feedback. I hope my feedback helped and was clear enough.
Super helpful, I came to this video because I have some Bosch quick fit installed in a car. Need to program them, and realized that going Bosch might have been a mistake… sounds like the autel can handle it. Think they’re blank.
@@th600mike3 sorry, if the Bosch tire sensor is blank without an ID and needs programmed then the Autel will not work.
Hopefully reading my OP will make sense. Bosch blank sensors are not Autel blank sensors so Autel won’t be able to write an ID onto the Bosch.
If the Bosch came with an ID already then the Autel will work.
Glad you are back in the rustbelt. Every thing happens for a reason
Thank you bro, for letting me know about Autel TPMS 😅 few I was about to buy one, now thanks to you going with this ATEQ TPMS tool
Good information. Please try to normalize your audio so we don't have to keep adjusting our volume to keep from blowing our ears out.
Thanks, sorry about that, I’ll keep an eye on that.👍🏻
I’m a CJDR tech and I like how you pointed out the mopar tool is just rebranded and
I started looking into it. Spot on. I hope I never have to buy one I’ll just keep using the shop one seems how the boss had them install the base in my bay so I’m not complaining lol. The price of a snap on one is a hard pull to shallow sometimes. Yes need updated tool box tours lots changed over a year. I think this last year I bought more tools than I ever did in a year but that’s how it works. Also got a bigger box so more space to fill!
Chrysler is junk
Hey! Does this tool need an OBD scanner to write sensor's ID into car's computer? I was under the impression that these tools car read sensors and possibly clone old sensor's data into the new one without needing to update IDs into car's computer. What if you have a new sensor already installed into wheels, will you be able to extract car's TPMS data from original/old sensors?
I would like to try that I actually have the Ateq V55 and it works great but in the past I had a issue with scanning I believe 2 vehicles but I know it was just a simple software update
Very helpful - thanks.
It is working for Hyundai venue 2022 with Intellisens TPMS sensor?
This one can edit tire pressure on placard also unlock ecu to program any tpms or oem sensor?
I have a question i took some
Oem TPMs for a 2016 gmc terrain Denali to a tire shop and was told they couldn’t reset my sensors what tool should I get for this car
I bought ebay sensors for a 2011 acura mdx. Will this tool activate them? They are already installed on the vehicle
Good review!
The one with the color display is the one that GM made their new special tool not sure what model it really is and i've used it a few times and its really nice. I personally have my own Autel TS601 that i bought a few years ago and it works great, that one won't program most aftermarket sensors, but once they are programmed they will activate. I have found that some aftermarket sensors it will program. Autel sensors are cheap and work great! The autel will Program New OE sensors. If this tool was available years ago when i bought the Autel I probably would have bought this one. Although the Autel gets free updates for life!
Hello RBM. That is a great tool
Can’t you manually write the sensor id number into the computer via the obd port w a Autel?
Good video, I might consider buying this after my smart tpms tool finally shits the bed
just picked up vt37 for 209.00 from tire rack and free 2 day shipping! amazon was over a week out for shipping
I will check that one out im lookin for one that will scan any sensors.
You had me sold till you got to the part where you had to purchase another tool to program the sensors. I was looking for a scanner that did it all for around the price of this one. Still a great video, thanks for sharing.
I think this Ateq Quickset X will do what you want for mid-$200s.
There are good readers who read a lot's of brand sensors but for all tools - regular software updates should be done to receive all new sensor brand and model information what's comes out.
How to pair ateq v36 or v 37 and ateq quickset tmps reset tool?to reset trough obd2 on toyota?
It won't you have to use an OBD-II scanner
If someone brings a car to you with unprogrammed sensors fitted , and they don't remember the brand . How do you find that information without stripping down the tyre?
Right this is one of my biggest question so thats why i want one that will scan any sensors.
Hi, is it working for Hyundai Venue 2022 with Intellisens TPMS sensors already installed in the tire ? Please let me know
Sorry, not really sure
From my experience with the Ateq VT37 I use, yes. It can program BH Sens Intellisens sensors, even if they're installed and pressurized inside the Hyundai Venue's tires.
Great. Another tool I have to buy after watching one of your videos LOL! Great video!
By the way, are you back at Paul Sherry? Also, want a side job replacing an AC compressor? I’m in Dayton so not too far!
Yep sure am back at the dealer. Message me over on Instagram or email me on the other.
the autel can relearn any, you just cant program new ones, it was unclear if you made that distinction so I thought I'd say this
Ok so autel could scan existing sensors but just not the brand new ones? Then how could someone add a broken one to the other 3 thats not autel? I guess its an autel trick on me.
The one I bought using the link you provided here, didn't have a year of updates, it said the license was expired, and neither Amazon nor the seller couldn't provide a new license code. Buyer beware - it should come with a new license code for the firsst year, in the box. Also there are mentions in the reviews on Amazon from at least two people that there are two versions of the VT36, one that won't program, and one will. Makes no sense. I'll just return it. Good review though.
Do how do we know which one is which?
Correct the autel can only program autel branded sensors. However they can scan any brand sensor. So far the autel sensors have proved to be good quality as I have not had to replace any that i have installed so far.
Agree, I’ve never really had any issues at all with the autel sensors. Just sucks to pay as much for the Autel tool but be only tied to that brand sensor to program.
@@RustbeltMechanic i agree completely. My view is slighty skewed as the shop I am at went from an old otc tpms tool that was so outdated you could only use the auto scan feature to the autel 508 so I dont have experience with the other brands.
The autel 508 will learn & program any sensor that already has a ID number and made for correct vehicle. Also comes with the obd2 cable and Lifetime free updates. Autel is less expensive than this Ateq after you buy the obd2 cable and will do everything you showed other than write ID numbers to other brands. Also updates continue to cost on the Ateq. So Autel being able to only write to autel sensors is no big deal since they are good sensors and the least expensive. Also noticed the Ateq didn't show autel as sensors it can do, so sensors will cost more.. Sensor & update cost quickly make the autel 508 lower cost to keep or purchase. . The Ateq does seem like a good unit otherwise. Just seems like the autel was thrown under the bus on this review.
@@zachrayburn915 so looks like both of these units r money suckers one way or another.
does this tpms tool work on seineca tpms sensors???
Not sure never tried those
Its cheaper if you buy directly from the manufacturer.
??????
you gotta love when your intro is 3times louder than the rest of the video learn to equalize everything...
Yeah it totally burst my ear drums.
