I need a J2534 interface that supports XENTRY PassThru reasonably well, within a £20-£50 budget.
So far my search/recommendations have led me to the Tactrix Openport 2.0 interface (original price £180). However, I'm initially interested in trying out more budget alternatives.
The car is a 2009 W207 E350.

Is this the original Tactrix or a clone?
 
I have Scanmatik 2 PRO and I am very happy with it :)

I use GODIAG but it doesn't work very well.
 
I'm using Openport 2.0 and so far everything works great.

I'm using Openport 2.0 and everything works fine if I connect to the correct USB 3.0 port (high current).
 
Great to hear it works great with Tactrix Openport. Can you code? Are there any features that don't work correctly?
 
Bought Openport 2.0 on AliExpress for $24, waiting for delivery. As far as I understand, the computer needs to be unplugged when you use it, otherwise it will break.

I have Tactrix Openport 2.0 and VXDIAG VCX SE.

With Tactrix Openport 2.0 I had 2+ cases where the devices would not respond when using Xentry 2018 or Vediamo 4.X when trying to connect to the ECU. After rebooting the PC everything worked again.

When using VXDIAG VCX SE on Vediamo 4.X I noticed some issues/lags when trying to load CBF files and connect to the ECU. I got the impression that diagnostics became faster in Xentry 2018.

I'll probably use XPT if I can get a copy with the key, so hopefully I won't have any problems. Hopefully I can fix the problem with my machine with Xentry, but I'll probably have to use Vediamo since I have a variant coding issue.

Scanmatik 2 PRO works well with XPT and Vediamo 4.
