5. Read the instructions on the screen, then start to read (backup) vehicle EEPROM data. When reading data is finished, rename the file and save it.
6. When the vehicle EEPROM data backup was successful, please execute the “Make Simulated Card” function to generate a simulated key with all keys lost. This function is available by connecting the server, so please ensure that the Internet connection is normal.
7. Choose vehicle EEPROM data file we’ve just saved, say “ Toyota_2016xxxxx.BIN” and click “Enter” to get network data.
8. When getting network data is finished, connect KSIM simulated card to OBDSTAR X300 DP Plus, then the A8-type simulated card will be generated.
9. When generating simulated card is successful, click “Enter” and move KSIM simulated card close to the start button and try to light the meter.Now, we can see that KSIM simulated card can light the meter normally.
1. If it is possible, use INPA for F series to diagnose these engines. Unfortunately, ISTA D/ gives very limited information, which can be insufficient in some cases. The manufacturer of the car has decided to hide the information regarding its problems from the users of the car.
2. In this entry, the following case is described: no error messages in the DME error message memory (or there is a 12C401 error message if the NOXEM is installed), but the performance of the engine is unsatisfactory. In situations, when the error messages are recorded in the DME error message memory, use the option “Calculate test plan” of ISTA D/ and prevent the obvious problems at the first hand.
3. In addition to the BMW Diagnostic Tool ISTA D/ tool, you will need also ELM 327 adapter with the required software to read the Misfire counters, which are reported only in OBD Mode 6 (and are not available in ISTA D/ ).

This post comes with the guide to replace rear brake pad on the 2016 Mini Cooper S F55 using Launch X431 Pro V4.0.
Something to know about brake pads:
When to replace brake pads?
Here are a few common symptoms of worn-out brake pads:
1.Low brake pad warning light is on: Not all vehicles are equipped with this system, but if yours is, this dashboard indicator light will likely be the first signal it’s time to replace your brake pads.
2.Brakes start to squeal regularly: This is often one of the first signs of worn brake pads and is caused by a metallic piece built into brake pads for this exact purpose. This part contacts the brake rotor to make a squealing or whining noise when the pads are low.
3.Brakes make loud grinding noise: If not addressed early enough, your brake pads may get so worn that the metal backing plate of the pad grinds against the metal rotor.
4.Brake pads look thin: You may be able to visually check your brake pad thickness to determine if they need replacement.
Can I drive with a brake problem?
It is not safe to operate any vehicle with a braking problem. If there is any sign that the brakes are not performing as originally intended, the vehicle should immediately be towed and repaired.
If the brake pads are being replaced as part of routine maintenance, with no symptoms noticed, the vehicle can safely be driven to a repair shop. Also, if the brake wear indicator has begun making noise, the vehicle can be driven to a repair facility, but postponing will result in unsafe driving conditions.
So how to replace brake pads with Launch X431 Pro?
Here will take Mini Cooper S F55 2016 as an example.
The low brake pad warning light appears on the dashboard and reminds to replace.
Now use Launch X431 V scan tool to diagnose the fault code firstly.
* Raise the car on a lift or jacks and jack stands * Remove the wheels * Remove the brake calipers. Brake pad replacement is done in pairs — both front wheels or both rear wheels at the same time, or all four * Remove and check rotors. Resurface or replace as necessary * Replace worn brake pads with a new set * Replace rotors and calipers * Replace wheels and torque bolts to specifications Please kindly notice:
Replacing brake pads on your vehicle is a fairly straightforward procedure, and can be done at home. But because brakes are essential safety equipment, we strongly recommend having a certified repair shop perform this job.
6.Then clear the maintenance warning with X431 V 8 inch tablet
7.Select “Reset”-> “Brake Reset”-> “MINI”
8.Switch on ignition
9.Select “Automatic Scan”-> “Brake Maintenance”
Note: If the availability of Brake Pad Being Read Approaches 0%. Replace front and rear brake cable (front and rear brake pad sensors). Otherwise, service may fail.
10.Read out the VIN, mode, car year and system No.
Have 09 Chevy Malibu, we lost one remote and I would like to add one. How to do it? Go to the dealer? Also, you can buy Chinese Tech 2 knockoff or Autel MK808 etc. Go on reading for reviews.
Car model and year: 09 Chevy Malibu
Purpose: program a keyfob
we lost one remote and I would like to add one.
09 Malibu Keyfob programming tools reviews:
Option 1. to the local dealer
1st experience. So far local dealers are quoting me $115 to $130 per keyfob to program. In addition, no local locksmiths have the scanner. With the tool its a 5 minute procedure but at the quoted prices I can pay 50% of the scanner then have it.
2nd experience:
I went to the local locksmith, had two of them programmed for $45 and it took her about 3 minutes. The problem with going to the dealer is that you are going to have customers who, for whatever reason, will have to come first. Contrary to what people may believe the appointment that you make is to drop off your car, not when it will be worked on. The schedule is very hectic, with upsells being made, repairs taking longer because of undiscovered underlying issues, jobs being pushed back because one customer can scream louder than the rest, blah, blah,……
Option 2. Chinese Tech2 knockoff Program 09 Malibu Keyfob ok
What is kind of sad is my generation of Impala, originally had it where you could program a new remote within the regular settings themselves but after a certain year, I think it was 2010, they got rid of that feature and decided that it was best handled by someone with a Tech2.
Honestly, if you can afford it, I’d even go so far as to recommend a Chinese Tech2 knockoff. I know some people are weary of them but I took the dive and bought one and it has more than paid for itself. It’s not 100% perfect but you can do just about anything the average person would ever need to do with plus you’ll have some of those dealer exclusive options. They generally run about $249 give and take but it saved me money in the long run and can make quick work out of something like programming remotes, unlocking radios, even running tests and going beyond your regular P0xxx codes such as tranny codes and airbag codes. Just make sure to check the seller’s rating and you should be good (for example, obd2tool.com has good rating)
You can buy at AutoZone a key fob with a programmer with it (it is actually a dorman product). It is in the range of about $80. I just went through the same procedure myself. And it only took about two minutes to program the key fob. And the take away at the end is that the next time you need to program a key fob you have the programmer already. And it will only cost about $40 for the new key fob without the programmer. And I could’ve programmed more key fob’s if I wanted to. Because it asked me if I wanted to program more key fob’s when I made mine. You just plug in the programmer into the scanner port. Turn on the key and wait for the beep. And in about a minute or two it will make 2 beats in quick succession. At at that point your key fob is programmed. And if you want to make more you can do it at that time.
Confirmed: AUTEL MaxiPRO MP808 can program key fobs for Malibu 2001 – 2006 year & 2014 -2017 year. You can check the function list at the official site.
Option 5: Autel MaxiCOM MK808
Confirmed: AUTEL MaxiPRO MK808 can program key fobs for Malibu 2001 to 2002 year.
You can check the function list at the official site.
