Good and reasonable- priced programmer (<£500) for VAG: supervag, VVDI2 VAG, Vcds, vagtacho 5, Iscancar, lonsdor K518S, OBDSTAR X300 DP Plus, Autel MaxiIM IM608 etc.

Part 1: First for reviews:

There are plenty for older pre 2008 precoded models , but later vag is going to cost you to get reliability and good coverage . there are some lower cost units like supervag that give a good coverage .

Many of the china products have some coverage like Lonsdor K518S, OBDSTAR X300 DP PLUS etc , and of course Autel MaxiIM IM608 has some interesting coverage.

original Supervag is a good tool in my opinion.. It does what it says and it’s easy to use. 

It’s the first tool I use for AKL or spare key 2006-2013 key + remote programming. The problem is Audi.. Poor coverage.

For Audi I use vvdi2 but it’s not a £500 tool. good tool..

My vag tools.. Iscancar, supervag, vvdi2, Vcds, vagtacho 5.

For Audi tt mk1 I use vagtacho 5 clone.

For all Kline I use iscancar + Vcds.

Can and uds -2013 I use supervag (on akl need tango or similar ) except Audi.

For the rest vvdi2.

FYI, the original Xhorse supervag is stopped to produce any more.

Part 2: Next is for operations & Car list:

VAG key programming: Autel MaxiIM IM608 is pretty good and fast, an alternative to vvdi2. Although vvdi2 is a proven product, you can have a try Autel MaxiIM IM608 for VAG car models key programming.

Check the vehicle module here:https://pro.auteltech.com/measurecarApp-1-1.html?m=94&operatorType=1

FYI, Autel MaxiIM IM608 is a new tool which replace Auro IM600, look here for its full package:

To be continued for these VAG key programmers’ reviews.

To sum up:
