Problem:
Tried to add a spare Fiat 500x blade key with Xhorse vvdi key tool plus using XT1M MQB chip. Process went completely fine until key add part. Original key of course successfully added to the car but XT1M chip says “no dealer key recognized”, even though the generation went fine, tried 3 different transponders, same error.
Did anyone have such an issue?
Solution:
Use XT57B super chip to precode Jeep MQB48.
User report:
UPDATE:
After conversion of xt57b to the MQB Renegade successfully generated dealer key and learned to the car.
That worked, it’s under Special Function -> Convert Super Chip.
For locksmiths getting into universal keys, Xhorse VVDI Remotes is the more flexible and budget-friendly option, with more key formats and a much lower entry cost. Autel is a better fit for those who mainly need universal smart keys and prefer a simpler selection process.
Autel vs. Xhorse Universal Keys: Quick Comparison
| Feature | Xhorse | Autel |
| Universal key types | Smart, flip, wired remote, wireless, remote head | Smart keys only |
| Key price | About $12–$45 | About $18–$45 |
| Entry-level tool | VVDI Mini Key Tool/ Key Tool Max Pro+ phone app | KM100 |
| Tool price | About $99–$419 | About $419 |
| Key selection | More options; frequency and market may need checking | Region and year filters |
| Generation | Depends on key type | Same procedure for universal smart keys |
| Best suited for | Lower cost and broader key coverage | Simpler smart-key selection and added tool capabilities |
The 3 Differences That Matter
Xhorse covers smart keys, flip keys, wired remotes, wireless keys and remote head keys.
Autel focuses on universal smart keys.
So if you need different key formats rather than smart keys alone, Xhorse gives you more options.
Xhorse universal keys cost about $12–$45, and the Mini Key Tool is about $99.
Autel universal keys are about $18–$45, while the KM100 is about $419.
If the goal is simply to enter the universal-key market, Xhorse requires much less upfront investment.
Xhorse gives you more key choices, but that also means more matching is involved. Vehicle searches can show different key types, frequencies or market applications, so the correct option needs to be identified.
Autel keeps the process more straightforward. You can narrow the selection by region and year, and its universal keys use the same generation procedure.
The trade-off is simple: Xhorse gives you more choices; Autel makes those choices easier to narrow down.
Which One Fits Your Shop?

Bottom Line
Xhorse is the stronger choice for most shops looking for a low-cost, flexible universal-key setup. Its wider range of key formats and lower tool cost make it easier to start and expand.
Autel makes more sense when simplicity and the additional capabilities of the KM100 matter more than having a wider range of universal key formats.
