(Review) TIS TechStream program immobilizer chip key for Toyota Tundra

Here in this article i will share with you my personal experience on buying a China clone Toyota diagnostic tool : MINI VCI OBDII cable, that will be a good reference for your purchase.

I lost my immo key on my way home and can not find it anywhere, the next day to get a new one i came to workshop which would charge me nearly $500, that’s really too expensive! I searched on the fourm that whether the key worth this price. Some kind friends told me:

-Program new immo keys for Toyota by with TechStream hardware and software is the best choice which will save you tons of money and time.

-Repair shop is that in the case…

Finally i bought the MINI VCI cable with $26.99 at China OBD2 Shop , very cheap i thought if it worked fine. I received the package 4 days later, after reading its user manual, i began to program my immo key for my Toyota Tundra.
