WIFI Version VXDIAG VCX NANO for TOYOTA

The dealer quoted me about $500 for a new smart key.

But I ordered a refurbished unlock key from eBay and bought the VXDIAG device through an official channel here.

From starting the software to registering the new key, the actual process took just a few minutes. (By the way, the dealer told me that if they just programmed the key I gave them, the pre-tax price would still be about $132 because that's their hourly rate... and it only takes a few minutes!!!... It's just a rip-off.) But I did it. That's the magic - Basically, once you connect to your vehicle, choose body electronics, then the smart key clock... After that, on the left, select the utility... Choose smart code registration and follow the steps.

By pressing the start button twice to keep the ignition on, but don't touch the brake pedal.

The steps are done within 30 seconds. Once you press the start button, just place the registered key inside the car (the new key should be a few feet away from the vehicle). Place the "master" registered key with the Toyota logo next to the start button... the car will beep once. Then remove the original key, place it outside, and bring the unregistered key into the car. Again, place the key with the Toyota logo next to the button, and it will beep twice... and you're done. Now test the car.

No big deal- A key for under $100 and a cable for under $100, and that's it.

Taking into account the tax on the $500 quote from the dealer, I saved almost $300... How can the dealer charge that much? It's insane.

I have two dongles: An OBDLinkMX+ for general use and a VCXNano for Techstream. The OBDLink is great for general diagnosis and lets me read all my modules except SRS. I can setup data monitoring on my phone or pair it to a headunit really easy while having some of the highest data transfer speeds of most dongles I could find. BlueDriver & Veepeak were close contenders but I am happy with my purchase. The VCXNano is great for Techstream because its wired or wireless connection and if I spent a little more I could get a universal multi vendor dongle. I originally ran it with an older Lenovo Thinkpad but recently loaded the VXDiag Suite to my surface tablet and its a way better experience or at least as much as it can be with TS. Getting TS up and running was a bit tricky but it sure beats using the cheaper dongles and cables everyone recommended to me before with 15 year old versions of TS.

Awesome tool for my made in India 2011 KUN51R NKMSYX 1KD-FTV 3.0L D4D Fortuner.

Honestly, I did not have much hope for this unit after trying 4 OBD dongles of various costs in the past.
Works a bloody charm, displays live engine load, MAF, coolant temps and even all the injector timing information!
That is almost the full feature set that a paid Techstream subscription offers, minus the Security addon for resetting keys etc.

Thank you VXDIAG! Love it!

I have a wireless VXDIAG VCX Nano connector, here's what works for me. It is a bit expensive, but it has good reviews and if you buy the wireless version, you can connect the car to a computer in your garage and you don't have to sit in the car uncomfortably with a laptop.

I got VCX nano wifi. Working pretty fast and well - faster than the cheaper ones, no glitches. I heard it's the best money/quality. Reactivate firewall and always use Toyota Launcher.exe in bin to launch Techstream - delete the original .exe and make a shortcut of the copied Toyota Launcher.exe . So far I was able to monitor live my brakes and to run general diagnostics. It works pretty fast; I tried the mini vci a bit and it was much slower and glitchy, every other third major thing I did it crashed.
