Renault can be cool when they want to

Why is Abrites Diagnostics for Renault so popular

We have spoken about Renault a million times already and we have been looking at different functions for them. Many people would say that the popularity of the Abrites Diagnostics for Renault/ Dacia has increased because of the fact that other tools have been removed from their companies’ portfolio, but this is not really what happened. The fact is that because we are the only tool we know of that does its own research

• we do our own research for key programming;
• we do our own research for cluster calibration;
• we do our own research for module replacement
  Аll from scratch we get the cars and we start working from them.
  Unlike other tools which rely on the OEM tool or other people’s tools we do everything ourselves. This is why when someone decides to stop their access we are left as the only key programming tool or anything else a diagnostician, locksmith or any other automotive professional may need.
  This is what our customers respect and expect from us.
   

Why is Renault so popular?

Objectively speaking Renaults are much more than a runabout, people rarely buy Renault for brand loyalty. This isn’t the point of the brand – they build stuff like the Capture and the Arkana – middle of the road crossovers with not much to write home about, their cars are built by committees and marketing departments. But sometimes they let their engineers let their hairs loose. Examples range from the 1963 Alpine A110 which was an extremely popular rally car, which competed between 1963 and 1977. It was re-released when Renault brought the A110 back with one of the few really great successful successors – the new car was really expensive and the one I saw during the Imola Gran Prix was a car with carbon fiber wheels. So they can indeed be cool when they want to. Renault really know how to build a cool car – we all remember the F1 Espace. What this really means is that the trickle down from F1 really works because as all cool brands always do – they are consistent in Motorsports- from Alain Prost to Fernando Alonso and Pierre Gasly. Cars like the Clio have always been a benchmark. Hell, you can even see me walking around in a Williams shirt in one of our videos. There is much to love about the cars Renault have been building.

​​​​​The fact is that we are completely independent and we are definitely the ones to go to when you guys need a tool for any service you need in terms of Renault and derivative vehicles.
We have really more than decent diagnostics, standard diagnostics. Actuators and DTC descriptions but most of all we are independent of any outside influence, of course we are under manufacturer pressure all the time, but that is part of the business we are in, but we are independent, so is our development, our product and so are our customers, this is important in today’s megacorporate world and we should cherish it.

Until next week,
