SVDI is a name found in historical aftermarket diagnostic-interface listings. It must not automatically be read as SVCI or as genuine Abrites AVDI: the abbreviations are similar, and individual products and software bundles need identification. A distributor's historic comparison treats an SVDI Diagnostic Interface and an FVDI BMW package as separately listed items. Historical distributor comparison.
What the listings say
The cited comparison describes the SVDI item using VW/Audi/Škoda/SEAT and BMW software labels and a TAG key-tool component. Another retailer describes diagnostics and selected key-related functions. These are seller claims about particular packages; they do not establish the software's authorisation, consistent specification, or a universal manufacturer or origin for every SVDI.

Relationship to other interfaces
Reliable primary evidence establishing that every SVDI unit is an AVDI clone was not found. The historical name is documented here as a related aftermarket interface, with its provenance and the rights to any supplied software unverified. SVCI is a separately documented name; compare physical labels and exact model numbers rather than assuming equivalence.
Coverage and behaviour depend on the particular hardware, installed software, version, vehicle and module. Before writing or programming, confirm the application, make suitable backups and maintain a stable power supply. Product names, packaging and licences vary between sellers; vehicle coverage claims are not independently verified.
