REVIEWS OF THE PLUTO JLR ENGINEERING TOOL
"Pluto and its Developers have a powerful tool here.
We operate a busy Automotive Locksmith Business in the south and
Part of our service and contracts with various customers require us to be able to supply
keys for all Vehicles (Most of these have no keys)
We have most areas covered with numerous tools; however, recently, we have been having
issues with 2018 and newer JLR Vehicles. We do have other tools, including AVDI for JLR; however, this has let us down on some occasions, and I'm not a fan of emulators for PEPS/UWB Vehicles.
Cory at 3D Group informed me about this product. Dave Lovell kindly gave me a demo at 3D Group HQ.
I was very impressed with what I saw. So, I immediately purchased it there and then.
We had a 2021 Range Rover L494 in progress that had been Programmed with AVDI but failed to
Crank. It shut itself down on every attempt. All tools failed. The following day, I returned to the vehicle
With Pluto, I had it running in less than 15 Minutes.
We have also covered a couple of 2021 I-Paces and 2022 Range Rover Evoques. All successful.
Great Tool - Great Support - Certainly Recommend it."

"We recently purchased Pluto after seeing a live demo at MLA in Telford, UK, in October. We were invited in to watch and then given an opportunity to use it ourselves on a Jaguar I Pace simulation of all keys lost.
Needless to say, we were impressed. We purchased there and then at the 3D stand on show day.
Within a day or so of purchase, I was added to the support network on WhatsApp. This has become an extremely large asset to owning Pluto as the knowledge base is fast and very friendly, with hints and tips being shared each day by the users.
Since purchase, we have done 5 keys 4 Peps, and 1 ps 3 with locked KVMs.
The process with Pluto is extremely fast and user-friendly. We had 2 Velar with locked BCM, which created an initial issue; however, with a fast response from Dave and Moe with direct connection to support in China, new files and solutions were written into the vehicles, and both were completed within 30 minutes of interaction with the technicians.
Other completed tasks have been the activation of Apple Play on an Evoque and the setting of media screen graphics, all extracted quickly...I fail to see how this tool cannot make you money.
Overall, this tool has given us 100% performance with an extremely helpful support network, and the tool has just about paid for itself outright with the jobs we have completed.
I watched Pluto for over a year and nearly pushed the button on purchase many times, but having seen it in action, I honestly honestly wish we had purchased it sooner.
Keep up the good work."
