For Ford/Mazda, choose VNCI MF J2534 or VNCI VCM3.

Both work with Ford/Mazda IDS software, support software update by link, and firmware update online.

The difference is that VCM3 is compatible with OEM software driver, supports CAN FD and DOIP protocols, plug and play, can support new Ford pickup trucks and EV cars, but MF J2534 doesn’t have these functions.

VCM3 is compatible with any version of Ford IDS, FDRS (new software), Mazda IDS, MDARS (new software) software, but VNCI MF only supports Ford/Mazda IDS software.

VCM3 supports 1996-2024+ Ford/Mazda while MF supports 1996-2023.

VCM3 supports USB, WiFi, and LAN three connection methods, but MF doesn’t support LAN.

As VCM3 has more functions than MF, it’s more expensive.
