Xhorse VVDI XT57B vs XT27A: Choosing the Right Super Chip
06.01.2026.The Xhorse VVDI Super Transponder XT57B offers enhanced compatibility for automotive locksmiths using Xhorse tools, including Mini Key Tool, Key Tool Max Pro, Key Tool Plus, etc. Building upon the proven XT27A Super Chip, this new model delivers expanded immobilizer coverage while maintaining full backward compatibility.
Comparison: XT57B vs XT27A
New Features
1. Extended MQB Platform Support
The XT57B adds comprehensive MQB platform compatibility, including MQB48 variants for Jeep Renegade and 4.5 Generation vehicles, plus ID5C MQB49 support.
2. Enhanced PCF7939 Series Coverage
New support for ID49 PCF7939V/PCF7939F and ID4A PCF7939M transponders expands European vehicle coverage.
3. Improved Performance
Faster processing and optimized communication protocols enhance programming efficiency.
Recommendation
For technicians primarily working with established ID11-ID48 systems, the XT27A remains a reliable choice. However, the XT57B represents the clear upgrade path for professionals encountering newer vehicle models. Its expanded MQB platform support and additional PCF7939 compatibility make it the definitive solution for modern automotive security systems.
XT57B is recommended for:
lTechnicians servicing newer European vehicles

Xhorse Multi-Prog Review: Easy Clone A VW CC MED17.1ECU
03.12.2025.Hey everyone, let me walk you through an ECU cloning job I just wrapped up using the Xhorse MultiProg. A customer dropped off two modules - one original and a used one from eBay - and asked me to copy the data from the original to the replacement. No complicated instructions, just a straightforward clone. Here's how it went.
Step1. Connect
First, I hooked up the original ECU. The Multi-Prog makes pin-outs super clear, so even if you're not a wiring diagram expert, you'll get it right. I selected the ECU model - in this case, a VW CC with an MED 17.1 - and hit Connect.
Step2. Read EPROM & Flash
Once connected, I focused on two key sections:
Internal EPROM and Internal Flash.
I started by reading the Internal EPROM. Hit the read button, waited for the progress bar, and checked to make sure the data wasn't blank. Everything looked good, so I saved the file.
Next, I moved to the Internal Flash. Reading this takes a bit longer since the file is larger, but once it finished successfully, I scrolled through to verify the data and saved it, too.
Step3. Write
Then I switched over to the used ECU. Following the same pin-out diagram, I connected to it, opened the saved EPROM file, and hit Write. After that, I did the same for the Flash file.
And that's basically it. After writing both files, I disconnected everything. The customer just needs to plug the cloned ECU into the vehicle and perform a mileage calibration. Once that's done, the car should start right up.
The Xhorse MultiProg really keeps things simple - even if you mix up the pins, it's pretty tough to break anything. Whether you're new to ECU work or a seasoned tech, this tool makes cloning straightforward and reliable.

Solved: Xhorse VVDI2 "The device battery is lower" Error
26.11.2025.Problem: I've been using the Xhorse VVDI2 for 3 years, but it has been giving up with a warning recently: "The device battery is low, please contact your dealer for battery replacement."
This doesn't mean your device is faulty or needs to be sent back. In most cases, the battery can be replaced easily - and you can do it yourself.
Battery Type
The VVDI2 uses a standard CR2450 coin cell battery.
How to Replace the VVDI2 Battery Yourself?
Important: Always use an external supply before and during battery replacement. Never remove the old battery first.
1. Prepare External Power
Grey wire = Positive (+)
White wire = Negative (-)
2. Solder the New Battery Before Removing the Old One
3. Remove the Old Battery
Once the new battery is securely soldered, carefully desolder and remove the old battery.
Final Check
After replacing the battery, disconnect the external power and turn on the VVDI2. The low battery warning should no longer appear, and your device will be ready for use.
Why Replace It Yourself?
lSave time and shipping costs
lEasy process with basic soldering skills
lUses a widely available battery (CR2450)
If you're uncomfortable with soldering, you can still contact your dealer for a replacement. But for most users, this is a quick and permanent fix.
