mpps v13 help

[pro_steve]

Use Galletto, it's clearly superior.

Are there actually any drivers for it or is it trying to run in compatability?

Not true, so please don't buy the Galletto, I get so many people calling me asking for help with them.
The MPPS is much easier to set up, and SO much more reliable. I've not yet had anyone wipe their ECU using the MPPS, so that say's something for reliability doesn't it

I've personally used Galletto on several cars (HDi's and PDs) without any issue at all! MPPS on the other hand, had it's first failure yesterday...considering I've only used it 3 or 4 times thats not a great hit rate in my experience.

I also find Galletto easier to use and don't remember any setup issues either (that said I did install it nearly 4 years ago the first time).

I know you've obviously got a lot more experience in this field and maybe over a wider range there are more 'bad' Galletto's, but as I say I've not had a single issue with mine, used at least 15 times now, well double if you count reading maps as well.

Trust me, the Galletto's are way too unreliable. The MPPS only seems to fail if you give it a reason to fail, like a change in power, knocking the cable etc. The Galletto tools seem to pick and chose when they are going to work, and then you got the issues of installing the drivers which usually has to be done manually.

Another vote the galletto being unreliable. Which is a shame as it covers alot more cars than the MPPS. For the EDC15 ecu though just go with MPPS at least it has a recovery mode.
'Old faithful' decided to just stop working the other day after it doing ecu data which showed up fine. Luckily it failed before erasing the ECU so no damage was done. It doesnt seem a case of if a galletto tool goes defective but more when will it become defective
From what I've seen of the MPPS it doesn't have as much of a "cross your fingers and pray" feel to it when reading/writing

MPPS wouldn't work again today. Guessing it hasnt liked the Win10 upgrade (where Galletto is fine with it ). Anyone else had issues with it on Win10? I would like both to work if possible!
