Softing attended the SAE On-Board Diagnostics Symposium in Long Beach, California, to present its latest diagnostic solutions and exchange ideas with experts from the automotive industry and regulatory authorities. Highlights included a live demonstration of Softing's SOVD implementation on a VCI from DGTech as well as Softing DTS.monaco with the OBD Testing Tool for SAE J1979-2/-3 and SAE J1699. The symposium also provided valuable insights into current and future developments in on-board diagnostics, emissions legislation and standardization.

Modern workshop diagnostics require flexible solutions for increasingly complex and connected vehicles. Learn how modular diagnostic platforms such as Softing TDX combine vehicle diagnostics, centralized data management, industry standards and cloud-based processes for modern automotive aftersales.

End-to-end diagnostic solutions help manufacturers and body builders of special-purpose vehicles analyze faults faster, efficiently leverage diagnostic knowledge, and reduce vehicle downtime. Softing TDX, Softing TDX.workshop, Soffting DTS.monaco, and Softing TCS support the entire diagnostic process – from development and testing to production and after-sales service.

The recording of our webinar “Digitalization as a booster for an efficient cooperation between OEMs and workshops” is now available. In this session, Martin Dietze and Oliwier Sochor explained how digital tools can significantly improve after-sales operations and diagnostic data management. Watch the full recording and gain insights into how OEMs and workshops can streamline collaboration and make better use of diagnostic information.

Software-defined vehicles require new diagnostic concepts. Learn how the new standard SOVD (Service Oriented Vehicle Diagnostics) enables efficient, remote, and in-vehicle diagnostics and what this means for workshops and aftersales.

Meet us on June 3 and 4, 2025 at the 18th Conference - Diagnostics in Mechatronic Vehicle Systems in Dresden. The focus will be on current challenges and technological developments in the field of testing, inspection and diagnostics E/E systems in connection with the networked infrastructure, new assistance functions, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, software integrity and the challenges of meeting legal requirements and standards. In our presentation you will learn everything about the topic “The challenge of workshop solutions with software-based vehicles - SOVD and OTX in use”.

The digital transformation in aftersales uses cloud technology to make diagnostic and repair data available centrally. This enables workshops and manufacturers to exchange vehicle data, repair histories and diagnostic processes efficiently and securely. The Softing TDX.server serves as a central data platform that manages vehicle data and user access and optimises diagnostic processes. Role-based access rights secure the data and feedback from the workshops continuously improves the quality of the diagnostic content.

The increasing number of software functions and variants in vehicles leads to increased complexity over the entire vehicle life cycle. Software updates are becoming increasingly frequent and relevant, even after the vehicle has been delivered, in order to optimize functions, rectify faults or activate new features. These must be carried out efficiently and without errors. At the same time, diagnostic processes are becoming increasingly demanding due to the large amount of data and interfaces. In particular, they must reliably map the high variance in the vehicle configuration. Softing TDX offers exactly the right tool support for a modern diagnostic tester in aftersales.
