How to Connect MBTools App with VXDIAG VCX SE?

MBTools is a third party App for Mercedes Benz retrofit and coding. The diagnostic device has to be J2534 compatible. VXDIAG VCX SE firmware is tested working fine with the app.

When it comes to flashing, though, then it might be a good idea to get a more serious hardware.
If we are talking about flashing headunits, then the device must also have DoIP (diagnostic over internet protocol) capability.

VCX SE is a good choice.

To start using the MBTools app, please head to the following download location, and get the MBTools-Launcher.exe file.

Program is free, token does not.

To be able to fully enjoy the benefits of MBTools, you will need the following:

– A diagnostic device, such as the recommended SDConnect C4, VCX SE. Other diagnostic devices might work as well.

– A laptop

– Reliable internet connection, throughout the whole time using the MBTools app

 Windows 10 and 11 are recommended, but Windows 7 can work also, with a few tweaks.

– Vediamo/DTS might be helpful to have, but most of the time, it will not be needed.

– For headunit codings, we recommend having a DoIP enabled diagnostic device (VCX -SE). This is not required for Instrument cluster codings, such as AMG menus.

After successfully logging in, the app will prompt you if you are connecting to the control unit on bench, or in the car. If you are not sure, please select “in car”.

The main screen will now show up.
