I have a XTool D7 and it was past it's 3 year free updates. XTool had a program for my 2018 Hyundai Kona 1.6T AWD 7 speed dual clutch actuator touch point program, 7 speed dual clutch adaptives reset, engine adaptives, and 4WD clutch reset for my car. I used it to keep my car running properly while the clutch was wearing out from high use.
When I had the dealer install my new OEM dual clutch and new OEM dual mass flywheel that I both cryogenic froze to see if that would help the clutch last longer, (no aftermarket dual clutch setup for the 7 speed Hyundai/Kia trans.) I got the car back after Hyundai installed the clutch setup and it worked, but was kind of wonky. I did my own retouch pointing of the actuators, but what worked with the old clutch did not "complete" with the new clutch. It ran 3/4 of the way and failed to move on to the second running the engine part it did before to fully finish the programing. I did not figure this out till I was done with my 1,000 miles " drive like Grandpa" clutch break-in, 500 miles is my normal break-in , but there are 2 clutches so I had to add another 500 to do the minimum break-in. I also found out the wonkiness was fixed when I reset the 4WD clutch plates. They were not syncing together without a reset the dealer did not do.
I am in good with the old service manager that moved sideways at the dealership so I ask him if they reset the 4WD clutches and he said they never do that as it is not protocol for Hyundai. I told him to tell the 2 top techs that do the clutches to ADD the 4WD clutch reset protocol as when I did that the wonkiness was fixed. I digress.
So explained all this to XTools tech dept in a 3 paragraph email almost the same as this post, saying "dealer installed OEM clutch does not pass the clutch actuator touch point test and suggested to run the 4WD clutch reset as a suggestion note ( they did not do that note suggestion) and 1 month later I bought the 1 year upgrade as I wanted to see if they ever fixed the issue and there it was, a new fix within 1 month of my email. So XTool listens to their customers I would say. They could of easily blown that fix off.
