UPDATE PLANBuilt for the W-platforms of the 2020s.
CAN-FD (Controller Area Network – Flexible Data-rate) is a next-generation automotive communication protocol adopted by Mercedes-Benz starting from 2020.
What is CAN-FD?
CAN-FD (Controller Area Network – Flexible Data-rate) is the next-generation evolution of the classic CAN bus, now adopted across the newest Mercedes-Benz platforms.
- Flexible Data-Rate: Transfers larger data frames at faster speeds than classic CAN, keeping up with modern vehicle electronics.
- Adopted by Mercedes-Benz: The communication standard used on the brands' latest chassis generations.
CAN-FD Ready, Out of the Box
- Native CAN-FD Support: Talks the Mercedes-Benz CAN-FD protocol directly from the standard OBD2 port.
- Newest Models Covered: Keeps the MB V3.0 connected to the latest chassis in its 1996–2025 coverage range.
One Tool, Every Protocol
CAN-FD is only the newest layer — the MB V3.0 speaks the full range of protocols used across three decades of Mercedes-Benz models.
- Beyond CAN-FD: Also supports classic CAN (ISO 11898 high/medium/low-speed & single-wire), K/L-Line, ISO 9141-2, ISO 14230-2, ISO 15765, SAE-J1850 and more.
- Old or New, One Connector: Standard 16-pin OBD2 covers 2001+ models; pre-2001 models connect via the optional 20-pin adapter.
Stop swapping parts on a hunch — test them live.
The MB V3.0 goes beyond reading codes. With full bidirectional control, you can command individual components and watch them respond in real time — cycle the ABS pump motor, run window regulators, activate the fuel pump, open the throttle, and run output tests on almost every onboard module. Pinpoint the faulty part in minutes, without trial-and-error.
Body & Comfort Active Tests
Command the cabin hardware directly from the scanner and watch it respond in real time.
- Run window regulators up and down on command
Powertrain & Fuel Active Tests
Exercise the engine-side components without touching a single connector.
- Activate the fuel pump instantly
- Open the throttle on demand
Chassis & Brake Active Tests
Take direct control of the hydraulic hardware that normally only responds while driving.
- Cycle the ABS pump motor
Dynamic Output Tests
Pinpoint the faulty part in minutes, without trial-and-error.
- Run output tests on almost every onboard module
Your Benz identified before your coffee cools.
Skip the manual VIN typing — simply plug in, and the tool identifies your vehicle in seconds. No typos, no extra lookup time. This boosts accuracy, eliminates input errors, and delivers a smoother, more reliable diagnostic experience.
One-Plug Identification
- Automatic VIN Read: Simply plug into the OBD2 port and the MB V3.0 identifies your BMW, Mini or Rolls-Royce in seconds.
- No Extra Lookup Time: Skip manual VIN typing and model-menu digging entirely — go straight to diagnostics.
Accuracy Built In
- Eliminates Input Errors: No typos means the scanner always loads the exact software profile for your vehicle.
- Smoother, More Reliable Sessions: Correct identification from the first second delivers a more reliable diagnostic experience.
Manual Selection Backup
AutoVIN depends on individual vehicle ECU protocols. If AutoVIN skips your car, it doesn't mean the device is faulty — you always have a second way in.
- Manual Selection Mode: Pick your model from the menu and every diagnostic and service function works exactly the same.
- Growing VIN Database: Send your VIN to the support team and it will be verified and added in the next software update.
