Tried Autel MaxiIM IM608 key cloning (all keys lost) on  2015-2021 Land rover AKL Key Cloning Function, working. 
Must use Autel universal smart keys though. No other key will work. Aftermarket or oem won’t work either.

Make sure you have wifi on. Hazards on and xp400 you go to go. Charge a lot too. Because those keys with tow are over 1k.

Works on FK72 and HPLA (if you use extra cable to tap into can lines), jpla have to use another tool (Londsor K518 or AVDI)

One of the customers tried that on fpace hpla, but with aftermarket change id key. Failed, then owner found Ori key and keyless was not working anymore. Used yanhua acdp by obd to clone to aftermarket and after that both keys worked fully with keyless. He used double can adapter and it read all by obd. Used aftermarket changeable id key, so acdp read both key ids via obd, and cloned one of them to the key. 5min and done. All by obd.

Problem: Today i try to add a key to a Porsche Cayenne 2008 with Autel IM608.

Read data from ecu me7 -ok
7th bytes from working key – ok
Make dealer key – ok
Program key – no ok
Lost communication with car when i want to program.
The original key can always start the car. Any solution?

Possible solutions:

Solution 1)
Just went through this a couple days ago. I had to jump fuse 26 and 36 to wake up car gateway aka cluster and then used VVDI2 to do key learn with pin I got from Autel, because Autel kept losing communication, if you go under diagnostic and talk to Kessy you’ll see it talks just fine but some glitch in the learning process.

just put power to the car normally and then jump the power from a full time fuse like 36 to the one that needs to be powered up 26.
You might be able to do it through diagnostic mode using same instructions as vcds and a PIN code like you would with earlier Volkswagens.

Solution 2:

the solution was to pull kessy and eeprom it then make key on bench.. ended up being quicker than trying to add the key obd2

Autel MaxiIM IM608 Scan Tool is able to program a used transmission controller(EGS reset) for 2015 BMW X3 by OBD successfully. Following I’ll show how to do.

Problem
This is 2015 BMW X3 with a diesel 3.0 turbo engine. This car is getting a transmission swap, and new transmission is already installed. This transmission will not let us put the car to drive or reverse. It will not disengage from park basically even if does. It will jump right back to park. The reason is because there’s a password between CAS module which is the immobilizer and the transmission. If the code does not match, the car will not shift apart. The car will start, but you will not be able to move anywhere. So I have to erase the eprom basically and reset it back to the factory settings on the section where it holds its immobilizer information.

Preparation
When you’re programming this kind of vehicle, especially with German cars like BMW or Mercedes, you must be careful. You need to have a stable voltage supplier & clean power. As you can see, I have set it up to 13.5 volts and left it on the flashing setting of the device.

Procedure
Connect Autel IM608 Key Programmer with OBD, press
IMMO >> Accept >> BMW >> Smart selection >> EGS transmission system >> EWS_EGS status
It says:”Authorization failed.”
So I’m going to go ahead and fit it.

EGS reset >> OK
Note:

1. There is a risk of EGS resetting, please be cautious!
2. It is recommended to remove the EGS module and operate it separately.
3. The process of EGS reset needs to be programmed. Please ensure that the power supply voltage is 13V and stable.
4. EGS reset process needs to access data online, please check the network settings to ensure that the device is connected to WIFI and keep this state during the whole process.

Download completed!
The EGS will be reset soon.
Confirm the current EGS software version number, press “OK”.

Backup code failed! Then encoded file does not exit, press “Yes” to continue.
There’s a problem: file does not exist. Better to continue, it’s okay. I’m not worried about the coding because I can record and reprogram this. Do a software update or just do regular coding.

EGS reset is divided into 3 parts.
Please wait a moment until processing 100%…

The reset EGS succeeded, but the restore encoding failed.
Note: after the EGS reset is successful, please strictly follow the steps.

1. Remove the gearbox from the test platform and load it into car.
2. Restore the encoding or coding operation of the EGS module.
3. Turn off the ignition switch for 15s.
4. Turn the ignition on for one minute.
5. Turn off the ignition switch for 15s.

Check
Let’s go back to check EGS status.
It shows “EGS: unlocked, ISN: erased”.

Clock to the drive, it’s actually changing gears to reverse.
EGS reset is totally done.

I don’t know why encoding failed occurs on this particular car. All I need to do is to do coding.
I like Autel IM608 immobilizer tool, it does the right job every time for me so far. If you do have an IM608 already, you don’t have to worry about that. Because you can recode and reprogram this device without any issues.

Reprogramming an old smart 453 key, 2018, Password (immediately) – ok and after learning both Keys – Total 5 minutes with Autel IM608. With voltage stabilizer.

When you go to program a key on Smart 453 you have to launch the command “read password” and autel first reads the flash then rewrites it and at the end gives the password.

In my hand Working key – and addition of an older key, from the same car. The process took less than 5 minutes with battery support. No Akl process.

Did 2 weeks ago one smart 453 2016 need to read password in i think about 25 minutes.

You can see the AKL function under the immo tab for bladed types.

Smart Key AKL: Partially 

Autel adds all smart keys lost function for some models as of 2021 including Outback and Legacy with the large vertical dash screens.  

People have done a few even 2022.  You are able to generate analog key under smart key.

2020 Outback (new system) all keys lost was done by autel im508 and Apb112. Worked great. This was just added in the last update for this system.

Generate analog key then add smart key.

If you do the job with an autel with the help of the apb112 your AKL scenario becomes an add key scenario no need to smart box reset.  It reads the immo data from the vehicle and then creates a temporary smart key to turn on the ignition.  Then you add a new smart key.

 

If you cannot read eeprom to generate analog key for other 2020+ Outback and Legacy new system, you need to change new smart box and steering lock or access with SSM4

Autel IM608 Volvo XC40 2020 All Keys Lost Success
