Code clearing question

[BirdDog]

My recommendation would be to get the real Durametric cable (enthusiast). With the cheap Chinese clone cables you will be tied to using an early bootleg version of the Durametric software (it won't work with newer versions). Plus, you'll be waiting a week or two just to get it (shipped from China).

2nd best thing to do would be to buy a used cable with at least 1 vin remaining from someone on the forums. If you do that make sure it's the newer version cable (compatible with the v6 software). Check the Durametric website for info on determining the cable version.

Last (and cheapest) thing would be to buy a cheap Chinese clone cable. The sellers will send you a download link to a really old (bootleg, some might say pirated) version of the software. It may work, and if it does it should be able to clear your airbag code.

I bought a Durametric cable and feel it is worth every penny. Allowed me to clear an airbag code (caused by a dead battery) and to diagnose worn out variocam tensioners (via high camshaft deviations).

Ok, I see you went the clone cable route... Good luck and let us know how that works out.


Just my 2 cents...
