Why should you buy Bundle Kit Autel MaxiIM IM608 + APB112 + G-BOX2?

The Autel MaxiIM IM608 has more value if you buy the bundle kit that comes with the APB112 Key simulator and the GBOX2. Normally the bundle that includes these 2 is the same price as JUST the IM608 with XP400 programmer.

I would recommend it for a 1st tool for these reasons:

  1. It’s my first key oriented tool and it’s been great for learning on
  2. tech support for Autel is spot on, the immo team there is knowledgeable and actually wants to help. Jocy is who I ask for.
  3. it is fairly universal and if the software is lacking, often times you can’t still get the job with extra work because of the XP400 and GBOX2 then just not doing it at all if your dead set on JUST OBD
  4. the diag software is good, it comes with a built in hex editor that works well, storage and organization is neat
  5. the J2534 programmer is an added source of revenue, often overlooked feature when talking immo but I use it in a pinch when factory files are needed

 

Most people will tell you as they have told me that no one tool will do all jobs. I think VVDI 2 might have better software.

Subscription wise some say the IM608 is costly.

Luckily just getting ONE of these quality brands will probably open you up to buying and wanting even more. I thought the IM608 was too expensive when I bought it, took me months to commit. Now that I have it and its making money, I have no regrets.

 

Q: Which tool is better ms908 elite or im608?

A: It’s really depends on the individual. Some people prefer the Elite some prefer the im608. It really just depends on your needs.

The IM608 is better bang for buck you can do bmw and Benz programming through j2534 anyway. I sold my elite for my im608 and never once regretted it.
