Car model and year: 2021 Cadillac Escalade
Purpose: Add key
Key Programmer to try:
Test report: can’t communicate
Look at the image below, it cannot read out VIN, key numbers etc.
Autel vehicle coverage stops at 2020 for this model Cadillac. It can do some GM’s but it would have required a CANFD adapter no matter what, but no 2021 full size suv and trucks yet. Maybe they will update to 2021 later.
2. GM MDI2 with SPS2 online subscription.
J2534 and 50$ will get that programmed in 12min.

What more advantages does obdstar X300 DP Plus have? Let’s read one user’s feedback:
I bought it because it’s the 1st tool out that can do the 2021 GM, also 2021 Dodge.
Clone gm bcm
Has toyota akl bypass
Ford akl active alarm bypass cable.
You can buy the full adapter set and you get free motorcycle immo key learning. also PWC into.
Also has odometer change. I already have the odometer table from them and it’s got good coverage and works good.
I used it today for the first time, 2007 ford freestyle AKL. 2010 Pontiac g6 AKL, 2018 Hyundai sonata AKL proximity key.
Right now I’m doing a 2018 Malibu proximity keys so far it’s done them all, and it was pretty quick pulling pins. both gm and Hyundai.
so far it’s working out pretty good.
Why I go with the obdstar X300 DP Plus / Keymaster DP Plus over the code cannibal?
Because with the obdstar one you can buy the MOTO IMMO adapter set and it comes with ford AKL active alarm bypass cable. Toyota can cable. and also it gives u the motorcycle and PWC key programming license. can’t get that with code cannibal.
and also the keymaster dp plus also has odometer capabilities. and I already have the obdstar odomaster and it has good coverage. I’ve been happy with it.
Hope it helps!
