News Release: See the Difference with New Snap-on Software Release

LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill., March 31, 2025 – The Snap-on® spring software release provides a complete answer for vehicle diagnostics with millions of new codes, tests, tips and data to extend professional technicians’ diagnostic tool capabilities, giving them an edge over the competition. Technicians and shops with the new software can improve repair accuracy and fix cars faster, leading to satisfied customers and increased profits. 

When it comes to diagnostic software, the truth of the matter is, Snap-on is different. It puts more power inside the diagnostic platform to give technicians everything needed to achieve faster and smarter fixes for complete and confident repairs. By keeping a tool’s diagnostic software up to date, a technician’s overall investment is maximized, and they receive even better performance than they did on day one.

With every software upgrade, Snap-on has added coverage for late and older domestic, Asian and European models, and the latest release is no exception with new coverage for over 30 makes and 2025 code scan and clear for all makes. European coverage is strengthened with new systems for popular vehicles such as Audi®, BMW®, Land Rover® and Volkswagen®, plus secure gateway access for Mercedes-Benz®. 

Snap-on software also includes extensive diesel OEM coverage to simplify the diagnosis with serviceable items such as transfer case to unlock the wheels, locking differentials, NOx sensor replacements, DEF service, advanced driver assisted systems (ADAS) and more.

Snap-on drives innovation to simplify the diagnosis and repair with features such as exclusive guided component tests for electric vehicles (EV) and more component location images to help technicians find the fix faster. With each upgrade, the diagnostic tool will continue to be enhanced with information based on real experiences straight from technicians and validated by Snap-on engineers, resulting in thousands more SureTrack® Real Fixes and PID flags.

Unlike other diagnostic tool companies, Snap-on includes the coverage and features technicians need to finish the job at no additional cost, including: 

-    Fast-Track® Intelligent Diagnostics with patented troubleshooting workflow and filtered information bringing focus to the specific vehicle and code being worked on 
-    Snap-on Security Link™ secure gateway access, including newly added Mercedes-Benz 
-    SureTrack® based on over two billion repair records with tens of millions of Real Fix tips from real technicians validated by Snap-on engineers
-    Over a million service resets and relearns that navigate straight to any reset procedures needed to finish the fix
-    Fast-Track guided component tests provide a direct path to the relevant test, but also includes a step-by-step guide showing how and where to test, including pin-in and -out locations
-    New component location images to easily and correctly identify the component and where it lives
