Used your video to program a fob for a 2016 lexus is300. Worked perfect. Thanks

On my 2002 Acura MDX. I tried three different times to program 2 extra IMMO keys (not the newer "smart" keys) and it kept failing; (on my D8). So I tried to add just 1 key so that I could at least have a spare, and it had to pull a four digit code from the car's computer-- which it did just fine. and it Worked! So then I went back in yet again to add the third key (second spare) and it also worked fine. So now I do have three working keys, it would simply only add them one at a time; which was a bit frustrating, but at least I was persistent and figured it out. I also programmed two key fobs-- but I did that by watching a video and doing a silly sequence of turning the key on and off and opening and closing the door three times and hitting the lock button three times, etc. and those worked fine. I didn't even need the scan tool for the fobs.

Very interesting, great that the D8 came through!

I have the Launch CRP919E and it does key fob programming just fine also

i talk to a auto lock smith , and he uses the x tool alot .... and a autel im508 ..... he says he xtool does alot of keys , but isnt the best for diagnosing , good for at home use for sure

Out of those two the Autel IM508 is a professional key programmer with some diagnosing capabilities. The xtool is mainly for diagnosing problems with some key programming capabilities.

I have a 2008 highlander without the smart key and I got D7 and wasn't able to problem fob (remote) were you able to program fob key for this yrs

I believe the remote is programmed without a scan tool. At least on a 2011 Tacoma it is. Try this video and see if it helps you. kzread.info/dash/bejne/iYqiuJqKpqywdps.html

I have a question for you. With the new current updates that have been made to the D8BT, does it make sense to even purchase a D9?

The only reason to have a d9 would be for the bigger screen and if you wanted module programming on some vehicles you could get the D9 pro.

Love the Xtool D8BT! I see the app version has updated to 4.35.3_7.89. The last update added topology, I haven't had time to see if this version adds anything new.

The ip616 does have key programming abilities but I am not sure if it has the same as the D8. You would have to hook it up and go through the menu and see if it is there.

Does the Xtool D8BT clone a key? Or is this like a factory reprogrammed key?

it will not clone a key, it is programmed to the car like the factory-programmed keys are.

I haven't done it but the scan tool does have an all keys lost function on most cars so more than likely you can.

Are you sure you didn't get an endorsement check from x tool? it's hard to believe that that would win out over to 431 pro. Lol

LOL, When it comes to programming keys the xtool has been very impressive.

Interesting the launch tools wouldn’t work as they are top notch

I was a little shocked that neither one of the others would complete the process. I kept getting programming failed.
