Benz Key programmer, AK500+ VS AK400

Recently, Carlon wanted to buy for his Benz a proper car key programmer while he is a layman on this line. So he decided to ask me for advice. He was confused about two kinds of car key programmers he selected online — AK400 and AK500+. Maybe as many people asked, what are the differences between them?

1. Functions

It is obviously that AK500+ is more powerful than AK400 on the functions; especially it has the good function for Motorola chip programming. AK500+ matches and supports function”keyless go” of Benz infrared key. AK400 is key programmer which can program for Benz smart key via infrared or on board programming, even work for the car all keys lost.

2. Car list

AK400 can do both Benz (W220/W208/W210/W203/W215/W230/W209/W219/W211/W230)     and BMW cars (New 1/3/5/6/7 CAS/CAS2/CAS3+System), while AK500+ mainly do Benz cars (W208/W210/W220/W203/W215/W230/W209/W219/W211/W230/W215).

3. Update

AK400 cannot be updated, while AK500+ can be updated by mail, or download software on the website for upgrading.

But still, there are some powerful auto key programmers support multi-car makes. Such as SBB key programmer, CK-100 key programmer and Key Pro M8 and so on. more information will be found on—- a reliable online shop.
