Another excellent review! I should add recently there was a problem discovered with the Xtool D8, where you could put the rear parking brakes into service mode with the scan tool however you could not take them out with the scan tool. This application was on a 2016 f150.

6:59 while skimming through the list of compatibility, i noticed the special function column. When it says *Replace ECU* as a special function, does it mean i have to change out the ECU or is it an optional function?
I have neither of those devices, however, the main difference would be that the x100 pad3 is an advanced key programmer and will have the edge over the D8 in key programming. Even when you add the key programming accessories to both tools the D8 may not retrieve pin codes on some stubborn vehicles lol. Some models of Dodge I believe.
@siegfredreginaldo The difference between those 2 at a function level is not clear to me going by what is on XTOOL's site. The xpad3 has better hardware but is listed to have less service functions. So, I can't really say.
From what I can see, it supports BAIC key programming. If you want to ask with specificity down to your VIN number, it would be best to contact XTOOL customer support.
Fair point. But I always declare when I get free review samples. I also make a conscious effort to point out cons as well as pros. As a principle, I've turned down paid scanner reviews. I've been offered a lot of those, but I've always declined them.

I had questions before watching the video but after watching it, all questions covered. 😅
Great to know 😁

Thanks, mate! I didn't know of the issue with the D8 and F150. I expect XTOOL to sort that out once reported. Did you manage to report it?
Thanks. Will surely check out he channel.
Just watched the video now, yea. That's a bug.
Thanks for the heads up!
The D8 issue is fixed. @404 not found. I know you know this cos I saw your comment on the video!
I love everything about you sir, beautiful review every second was worth it. I was crying when I saw the kc100. Mehn I need that little rascal 😂.
😂😂
Lol. This cracked me up big time. 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Little rascal 😅
Thanks for the feedback!
@01:54 - "Unforgiving car brands".😂 Can't wait for that Mercedes programming video mentioned in this video.
🤣 Don't mind those ones that love making life difficult for people 🤣. I heard of one volvo that takes hours to program keys for 🤯. Pure evil. Lol
Thank you very much for the video!💕
You're welcome! Thanks for the opportunity, and the lightening speed of your customer support!

what defference with regards x100 pad3
I haven't honestly done a side by side comparison...
6:59 while skimming through the list of compatibility, i noticed the special function column. When it says *Replace ECU* as a special function, does it mean i have to change out the ECU or is it an optional function?
It depends on the car. Not all cars support that function.
I want to learn about key programming and other things
Cool. All the best!
Hi..so this can do ECU coding/updating for VW?
Support for Volkswagen for Audi for Skoda 4-generation 96-bit online, 5-generation online, MQB online key matching?

i wish there will be a comparison video between X100pad3 and D8, thank you!

great! im heavily working on asian brand vehicles and some fords. thank u very much!
You're welcome!
i forgot to ask, how about IK618 vs X100 pad3?
@siegfredreginaldo The difference between those 2 at a function level is not clear to me going by what is on XTOOL's site. The xpad3 has better hardware but is listed to have less service functions. So, I can't really say.
A shame that ROM. Only 32 gb. 6 month's update only. 😢. Same problem of x100 pad 2.
Very valid point. I haven't hit any storage space issues though. What do you mean by 6 month update?
Hi,
is it possible to have the programming key of BAIC MODEL No BJ6470U6X1A because i lost the remote key.
thanks..
From what I can see, it supports BAIC key programming. If you want to ask with specificity down to your VIN number, it would be best to contact XTOOL customer support.
Will it program a 2016 es350 lexus?
It should, but will be best to confirm from tech support. What market is the car made for?
i think getting a free scanner is promotion enough
