This package contains the Global Diagnostic System 2 (GDS2), which is the official dealership-level diagnostic software for all modern General Motors (GM) vehicles. This is not just the base program, but a "Mega Database Update" that provides the very latest vehicle data for 2025, ensuring compatibility with the newest cars. It is the essential tool for professional diagnostics, service procedures, and troubleshooting for the entire GM family.
What is GDS2?
• Purpose: GDS2 is the software technicians use to communicate with all the electronic modules in a vehicle. It allows for reading and clearing fault codes (DTCs), viewing live data from sensors, running actuator tests (e.g., commanding a fan to turn on), and performing critical service and setup procedures after a component is replaced.
• Required Hardware: GDS2 requires a specific diagnostic interface to connect to the vehicle. It is designed to work with a genuine or clone GM MDI or MDI 2, but will also work with many high-quality J2534 Passthru devices.
What's Inside This 2025 Mega Pack?
This package contains all the components needed for a full and updated installation:
• GDS2 Software Installer: The core program (GDS2Install.exe) that installs the main diagnostic application on your computer.

- GM Global: For Chevrolet, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac in North America & other global regions.
- GM China: For specific vehicles sold in the Chinese market.
- Opel/Vauxhall: For the European GM brands.
