VXDIAG VCX NANO, VCX SE, VCX Plus, VCX DoIP multi diagnostic tool software and hardware support from vxdiagshop.com
Problem:
I had a problem installing gm passthru and gds2 driver for vxdiag vcx nano gm device. It reported an error Code Execution Cannot Proceed. Any advice?
Possible reason:
The operating system is missing mfc110u.dll patch.
Solution:
Download and install Visual C Runtimes All-in-one Jun 2022 patch.
Then install vxdiag passthru and gm drivers again. It should be fine.
Problem:
‘My vxdiag vcx se BMW and ista 4.39 hard drive failed to program a module on a BMW F30 and failed to do VO coding on a Mini Cooper R56. ISTA-P has no communication with both vehicles. Any solution?
Solution:
VXDIAG VCX SE BMW ISTA-P does not support F/G/I series programming/coding, it can be done via E-sys engineering software.
For E series use INPA and WinKFP.
Problem:
I got the vxdiag vcx se pro 3 in 1 device, it searched and paired with WiFi without problem, but no device was detected in vx manager. Any solution?
Solution:
Vxdiagshop.com engineer checked and found IP address is not correct.
Don’t manually set IP address. Select “Obtain an IP address automatically”.
If the IP is correct, vcx se pro can be detected.
Also make sure you have turn off antivirus and firewall programs.
This fits all VCX SE series scanners.
OBDX Pro, OBDLink, VXDIAG VC NANO GM are PCM Hammar App approved devices. Which is choose to choose from?
Here is the clue.
OBDX Pro VT –
This device is the brain-child of two PCM Hammer collaborators (Tazzi & PeteS) who thought they could build something with the high speed of an AVT or J2534 device, at the price point of an ObdLink device. And that’s exactly what they did. But supply-chain issues mean that they arrive in batches, which sell out quickly. Consider getting onto the waiting list now, and buying one of the devices below while you wait.
ObdLink ScanTool LX (preferred) or MX+ or SX
both slow, but they do work.– These devices are supported, however they do not support high speed / 4X communications, so a full read of a 512kb PCM will take roughly 30 minutes (longer with the SX). That’s long enough that we advise using a Battery Tender or similar device to ensure that your battery doesn’t die. However these devices are inexpensive and readily available. (To be clear, the ScanTool MX+ is supported, the MX (without plus) is not supported.) The LX uses bluetooth, but has been very reliable. The SX uses USB and is very inexpensive, but it is also the slowest option. The OBDLink is just for reading codes thru some basic applications not for flashing pcm.
AVT 852
These devices are fully supported, and the only drawbacks are the price and the process of acquiring one. They cost about $275 and are only available from the manufacturer, and the manufacturer does not have an online store so you have to email them.
The VxDiag VCX Nano is J2534 devices, available for about $110 or so in vxdiagshop.com, which many people are using. There are two or three versions of the VCX Nano – make you sure you get the one that is compatible with General Motors vehicles. You will need to get PCM Hammer / PCM Logger via .zip file in order to use them with the VCX Nano.
this is an over-the-top awesome use of the Nano. Using the VCX Nano with PCM Hammer is four times faster than using the OBDLink MX or MX+ Bluetooth method.

How to use PCM Hammer Software with VXDIAG VCX NANO GM?
Other J2534 Device
In theory, any of J2534 device should work, however there seems to be a conflict between the Windows Store and some J2534 device drivers, so you may need to get PCM Hammer / PCM Logger from the .zip file releases rather than from the Windows Store. Some J2534 devices do work with the Windows Store, for example the Bosch MDI2 (there are mixed reports regarding Bosch MDI2 clones, however).
NOTE:
There are no ELM / ELM 327 devices in this list. The app won’t work with other ELM 327 devices.
In sum:
The obdlink sx is the cheapest but very slow. The obdxpro vt was built by the pcmhammer guys and is very fast and quite reasonable as well. The VXDIAG works well and being able to use Tech2Win, GDS2, Techline Connect SPS2 and TIS2000 makes it worth the extra money for us.
Q: Will VXDIAG VCX NANO GM Work with DPS (Development programming system) Software?
DPS functions similarly to the GM SPS client, it will change VIN on BCM, change mileage in GM, unlock GM HMI MODULE theft lock etc.
A:
Need luck. According to our user feedback. Some tested working, some failed.
We don’t provide DPS software nor calibration files. Free to tested by yourself.
For example:
2022 Cadillac ECM programming with vxdiag vcx nano gm & DPS
Xentry 2023.09 software was tested working fine with VXDIAG Benz C6 and VCX SE Benz DoIP diagnostic scanners.
New software will be avaible in HDD or SSD formart.
Software List:
Xentry 09/2023
XENTRY V33.6.2.4_V2
WIS/EPC 3.22.11.0, 06/2021
StarFinder 2016-2022
SDmedia 2014
DTS Monaco 8.13.029

To use 09/2023 xentry software with VXDIAG Benz device, make sure
Update C6 driver in VX Manager.
Do following:
Update firmware- Update VCI and DoIP
Go to Diagnostic tab, Update Benz C6 driver
After update C6 driver, run Xentry recovery tool on the desktop to sync Xentry VCI.
Update firmware/VCI-> Update C6 driver-> Sync VCI.
Problem:
I got the vxdiag vcx nano gm tech2win software installed on a Win10 64bit laptop, software is installed but when run tech2win software, it will not communicate with the vehicle (2011 Chevrolet Colorado 3.7 4wd). Error device not connected. Any solution?
Solution:
VXDIAG Tech2win can be installed on 32-bit system ONLY. Better Windows 7 32bit system.
Some managed to install it on Win10 32bit, but some failed. Win7 is recommended.
VXDIAG VCX NANO Toyota Techstream cable was confirmed working with latest Lexus GX460.
Here comes the latest review of vcx nano user:
“All the negative reviews have one common thing…user error. Anyone using Techstream knows you need an old junk computer that you disable the anti-virus software and keep it off the internet. Software works perfectly, unit arrived with the most recent firmware.
Software V18 works fine. Upgrade the FW before, if needed.
Worked PERFECT on a 2023 GX460, 2022 GX460, 2017 GX460, 2019 GX460 and a 2007 GX470.
MUCH better than the cheap cable that I previously purchased.
This worked right out of the gate and I reprogrammed my TPMS sensors and I turned off the seatbelt warnings.
This one has my seal of approval.”
