     Any one had any luck getting in to programming keys on 2013 up Ford's ? Can not seem to find the PATS. or immobilizer to gain access.

     Now is this a hardware issue that the 708 is incapable,or is this a software issue that someone didn't pay enough for the information?

     I  really doubt the DS708 hardware wise could not still program  newer keys if the same # of Autel engineers and hours were put into the tool's software development as they once did when it was The Flagship scanner and The Pride of Autel. It was once hyped as the closest thing to an OE tool as you can get. Bet the GM Tech 2 or Ford NGS hardware and  processors are even slower than the DS708.
       The coding ability of the DS 708 on Autel's tool comparison chart is listed as Minimal where the regular (non Pro )MaxiSys  coding abilities are listed as advanced.

     You can check our notice in FAQ. DS708 will be discontinued on Y2016. But we will continue to maintain it for 5 years, to cover the basic functions in DS708.

     Is Autel doing any kind of discount or but back program for their 708 customers that want to upgrade to the MaxiSys?

     I wish I would have known I just bought mine last week.  I guess I got the shaft. I would have upgraded had I known.  I did not see anything about when doing my research.
