Super ICOM Pro N3+ vs. Super MB Pro N3 vs. BMW ICOM Next

 Super ICOM Pro N3+ is a new BMW diagnostic tool. It's the upgraded version of the BMW's special inspection device A1, A2, A3 and N3. It's 100% compatible with the original BWM special inspection software without any software changes, and added J2534 and DOIP. What's the difference between them? What's new of N3+? Check the detailed comparison below.

Comparison Table:

In Sum:

Super ICOM Pro N3+=BWM special inspection+J2534+DOIP+WIFI

It covers all functions of N3, and both of them adapt original ICOM solution which allows firmware update from ICOM server. ICOM Next is a specific BMW dealer level diagnostic scanner. The clone uses different solution, so it cannot scan non-OBDII older models or motorcycles.

Besides, N3+ also supports both DOIP and J2534, and has a one-key switch button to freely switch between ICOM software and J2534/DoIP software.

N3+ J2534 /DOIP one key switch function:

Super ICOM Pro N3 Plus can use the J2534 protocol to read through after switching with one key. It is compatible with the 6-pin and 14-pin CAN communication and the 7-pin K-line communication of the OBD port. It can use Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota, Honda, Land Rover and other special inspection software with J2534 interface.

N3+ can use DOIP network communication protocol after one-key switching, which can solve the problem that Volkswagen 5054 and Mercedes-Benz C4 cannot test new cars without DOIP.

NOTE:

• For Mercedes- Benz:

It needs to activate J2534 authorization so far (free of charge before October 1st, 2023). Other vehicles do not need.

After activation, install J2534 switching software to work with.

(You can use J2534 switching software if you have. If not, contact us to help with remote installation and activation from the factory.)

Only after switching, then can use MB SD C4 Xentry software (newest version: 2023.06, item No. SS221–10 or SS221-A10B)

In short, for Mercedes- Benz, open authorization+ install J2534 switching software+ install Xentry software.

• For Honda/TOYOTA/ GM GDS2/ VW, etc…

Can switch the protocol to use directly, no need authorization!

But need to install JLR Mongooses Passthru driver (J2534 MongoosePro ISO Setup) and related J2534 software

Precautions

Precautions for PCMflash or PCMtuner flash to read and write DQ500:

Work BOOT: use a direct connection to the connector of the control UNIT, the switching power supply is carried out either manually(recommended) or by using the scheme of automatic power control. GODIAG GT107 DSG gearbox data adapter(same PowerBox or converted from KESS). In case of manual control, the entrance to the boot mode may not happen on the first attempt.

Read DQ500: only when connected directly!

Note: the power supply must be switched manually, while only the ignition must be switched on or off(pin 15), the second contact must be connected constantly.

Operation in BSL with VL300/V30: requires drilling a single hole in the minimum diameter cap in order to insert a probe into it. The probe is connected to the GODIAG GT107+ DSG Gearbox Data Adapter BOOT 1k ohm GND line(included in the GT107+ host). it is mandatory to connect to-line and it is highly recommended to use auto power to quickly "feel" the pin on the board.

The pictures below show the drilling location and the point on the board where the probe should go.
