Today, we will test one of its core functions ” Audi A5 TCU Clone with Launch X431 PAD V and X431 X-prog3″.

Operate in normal method:
Get security code
Get used transmission security code
Make replacement step
TCM programming
Coding, basic setting…

Why clone?
After replacing the used transmission, perform a TCU CLONE may help you skip all security, programming and coding steps. It will effectively improve work efficiency and save working time.

X-PROG 3 Key Immobilizer & X-431 scanner Pad V will help you to quickly complete the entire operation process with ease.
