C32 AMG, C55 AMG
Dealer level diagnostics, programming

I have a 02 C32 and 05 C55 and absolutely love the cars and plan on keeping them long term. I do my own maintenance and have used dealer-level computers on my other cars, and would like to get the same for my C32 and C55. What do I need in terms of software and hardware? Thanks in advance!

Following.

I know there's Star C3/C4/C5/C6 but most are poorly made clones that require an old laptop with an RS232 port.

Xentry Passthru with Openport 2.0 cables don't work with KLine cars such as the C32.

Are there any cheaper/better alternatives other than Autel MS scanners?

Launch X431 V Pro has met all my needs with 02 C32, 03 CLK320 & 07 Chevy Avalanche.. It does way more than what I need it for and the software is soild and it's relatively fast. I've used it a lot and it has yet to crash. Comes with 2 years of updates. I looked into Star and it some people swear to buy it. Chinese version you take your changes or spend $10K or more for the real deal.

I saved a lot of money finding out my 16-year-old Nephew's check engine light was from him running over the gas cap
