Does Openport 2.0 Support 2023+ Cars?

[Atilla]

Doesn't Openport 2.0 support 2023+ car models? I can't find any information about this.
I thought I could enable some features on my 2023 C118 CLA 200 pre-facelift using this interface.
Should I buy an ENET cable instead?

Openport does not support DOIP cars. You can use ENET cable or VXDIAG VCX SE. I use VCX SE and everything works fine.

Are you really sure? I'm confused.
My car should have the following (after checking the VIN).
Navigation system: COMAND NTG6.
Detected control units: IC177, HU6, EZS167 (this statement belongs to another forum user on another forum).
VCX SE is too expensive and not available in my country.

 

[Ajkaro]

Yes, I'm sure. The new models use the DOIP protocol, so you'll need a special device like the ones I mentioned earlier.

 

[handygraphy]

Yes, that's right. Openport doesn't support DOIP, and the best options are ENET or VXDIAG VCX SE. I use VCX SE too, and it works without problems.

 

[Atilla]

Are you saying this because of the model year or because of the control and communication modules I mentioned? In some sources the communication type of the EZS167 gateway system is described as CAN bus.

 

[handygraphy]

This mainly concerns the communication method - new models increasingly use DOIP, which Openport 2.0 does not support. The CAN bus can still be used in some modules, but if you want to code control units or activate functions in the CLA 200 (C118, 2023), Openport will not work.

 

[Atilla]

In that case, I will just return Openport 2.0 without even trying it. Since VXDIAG VCX SE is not available in my country and it is very expensive to buy it abroad, I am thinking about buying this cable. What do you think? Is it compatible? Is it possible to code with DTS Monaco 8/9?

 

[viteamo]

ENET is suitable for DOIP models like W206, W223, W297 etc. But will not work with W167, W117, W177 etc.

I'm confused again... I think handygraphy is using ChatGPT or something to reply to me and a couple other people on the forum. I wouldn't trust his answer.

Please someone with REAL knowledge answer my question.
Do I need to purchase an ENET or Openport 2.0 cable to enable some features for my C188/W118 2023 CLA 200?

Checking the VIN number using MBTools gave:
Navigation system: COMAND NTG6.
Detected control units: IC177, HU6.
