VDIAG SUBARU SOFTWARE COMPATIBLE SSM3 OR SSM4
Here, we’ll talk about SSM3 and SSM4 working for Allscanner Vxdiag Subaru
What is SSM?
SSM, the short form of Subaru Select Monitor, is an OBD based tool that allows configuration and customisation of the Engine Control Unit (ECU) and Transmission Control Unit (TCU), which is great for diagnostic and tuning purposes. It can be used for Subaru vehicles from MY1999 onwards, including the Legacy, Liberty, Outback, Baja, Impreza, Forester and Tribeca.
What is SSM3?
SSM3 software is designed to work for model years 1998-2016 using Hitachi HDS3000 or the newer Denso DST-i. It doesn’t work at all with standard OBD2 devices.
What is SSM4?
SSM4 works with model years 2016+ and it’s designed to work with the Denso only.
Subaru SSM3 on Vxdiag?
Confirmed!
The third-party tool called VXDIAG which claims to work with SSM3 and they provide instructions on cracking the software. Most are interested in it for personal use. PP think it good when use VXDIAG SSM3
Subaru SSM4 on Vxdiag?
You need luck!
The official has not tested SSM4 software with VXDIAG Subaru. So, Allscanner holds no responsibility of what you will do with SSM4 on VXDIAG.
But some users tested it successfully.
Vxdiag can support Subaru SSM4, but it need license for it, so you need to use Subaru SSM3 with our device.

2.Save Subaru.exe to folder of C or D, Install it on win 7 or up, right click to run
