The software recognized my tool as well. In fact i got HONDA HDS running too, it recognized the autel J2534 then again communication error. Tried both acura and honda and nothing work. How about you try civic 2002 , rsx 2006 and post the result . I think you might be misunderstanding the J2534 Programing. Are you programing using the laptop and J2534? We're not talking about running it on the Maxisys.
Thanks for the information to start off as it seems the best support is in the communities not the manufacturer. Between my personal use the few times I've been able to get a live person on the phone picking their brain and whatever I can gather from other sources been trying to put together the big picture about capabilities for the 908P and whether or not I should upgrade. Currently have the 905 mini recently purchased and happy with the extensive coverage although it has some things that don't work or gaps (all scan tools do) mostly disappointed with management system which is a bare bones and locked. Like others WI-fi is flaky but get it to do basic needs like printing reports and updates. Went for the mini because bigger screen meant nothing to me and after talking to support software different from base 908 to 908P. Have been using cardaq-plus for 8-10 years now and is always the unit validated on OEM sites or something they made for other vendors like snap on so I agree on that point. The big mystery to me or what Autel isn't willing to state is whether using 908P always requires use of manufacturer's website especially J2534-2 capabilities or do they supply programming,coding directly to the tool without OEM like Auto Logic. Since shop works on everything split by region evenly and some manufacturers are just way too expensive unless you specialize what's done or not done just with the 908P is paramount as I could just continue using cardaq if those capabilities aren't any different from my current status as 908P would just be another scan tool as far as I'm concerned. Not sure what community to post in as this is the first but we are talking about what I'm trying to find out more about. Thanks all for any replies
First of all I have windows 8.1 installed on my Asus K46CB and the Honda j2534 is also installed on it.... I connected my maxiflash pro to a Honda Accord and my laptop... I switched on the ignition and click on start button on the software...it recognized my maxiflash then recognized the vehicle.. just two control units... ABS Module and MICU....I was in need of programming MICU and I did that without issue...
For all who saying autel is not good, I'm using my maxsys pro every day and I'm very happy with it, I use my maxisys pro with loptop programming bmw, benz, gm, ford, never have no problem, except honda, acura.

Could the reason that you had success programming that 2013 Honda be that you only use a Maxi Flash Pro from a Windows 8 laptop from the very start and not ever paired it as a VCI to a MS908 where the files could possibly be stored and sent to a 3rd party server in China?LOL
