With vehicle manufacturers increasingly locking the diagnostic ports on newer vehicles, Delphi technologies can offer a convenient and cost effective solution to this growing problem in the form of its BlueTech VCI diagnostic tool. 

Available in Ireland from Tech’n’Tools, the BlueTech VCI offers a full security gateway for diagnostics and repair on a wide range of vehicles. Dave Molloy of Tech’n’Tools says, “Manufactures such as VAG, Mercedes, Fiat and Renault all now lock their diagnostic ports, meaning a garage has to register and set-up many individual accounts for access and pay ongoing fees. With the BlueTech VCI system,  you only need to complete one registration process for full diagnostic access to cars from these manufacturers and the on-going cost is included in your annual subscription.” He adds, “Delphi’s close working relationship with the VMs means that information and access is always fully up-to-date.” 

Dave points out that using the BlueTech VCI tool is the most cost effective and most convenient way to get diagnostic access to all of the latest vehicles. The system also provides DolP capability for Land Rover and Volvo vehicles, as well as full pass-thru capability. 

BlueTech is an intuitive next generation diagnostic solution that is easy to use and provides workshops with an extensive suite of diagnostic interrogations, real world data, and more. Features include the security gateway, flight recorder, VCI status indicator, 360° Multi colour indicator, battery voltage monitor, WIFI and Bluetooth connectivity, Integrated DoIP, Pass-thru support for OEM flash-programming and CAN FD channels.  

The system offers universal coverage on cars, LCVs and HGVs, opening up new business opportunities. 

The VCI comes with a USB security dongle paired to VCI, Rugged tablet with Windows 10 Pro - 10.1, carry case and can be purchased with a one, two or three year licence. The unit is also future proofed with features like enhanced trouble code assistance, with expected live data values on screen, being added. Thanks to an extensive database, it also offers fault probability based of 1000’s of aftermarket repairs. The new BlueTech VCI hardware is also 5 times faster than the previous VCI. 

As an added bonus anyone with existing Delphi diagnostic equipment can get a trade in discount when they buy the new equipment.
