Many vehicle manufacturers restrict diagnostic access to their electronics and systems, meaning that relatively simple servicing tasks, calibrations and even service resets are only possible with a dealer tool, posing a significant challenge to independent workshops and technicians.
This creates several problems for independent garages, including:
- Numerous tools and software subscriptions are required.
- Multiple logins and payment concepts required.
- The tasks are needlessly costly, confusing and complex.
Bosch SDA (Secure Diagnostic Access) provides access to vehicle manufacturer-protected systems, via a one-time registration. With more than 20 vehicle manufacturers included at no additional cost, SDA is the key.
A compatible KTS and ESI[tronic] subscription are required.
Key benefits of SDA:
- A single combined hardware and software solution.
- One single login and registration for all participating manufacturers
- SDA is already included with all ESI[tronic] main package subscriptions.
Manufacturers covered by SDA:
- Abarth
- Alfa Romeo
- Audi
- Chrysler
- Dacia
- Dodge/RAM
- Fiat
- Ford
- Hyundai
- Jeep
- Kia
- Lancia
- Mercedes-Benz
