The installation is corrupted not the program itself. When you install a new version you MUST uninstall the old one AND reboot before installing the newer version. You most probably have 2 installations (more acurately one and a half installations) on your computer. Check Control Panel and then under installed programs see if CDR isn't listed twice. That'd tell you it's improperly installed. Bosch tech support can help you with the steps to correcting this issue.

The Crash Data Retrieval System accesses data in select modules found on certain vehicles. The data that is stored is selected by the OE (and later the government), not the CDR system. At this time, no known system and none accessible by the CDR system store any date or time information at all.

The current version of CDR is version 3.5 (just released this week, 7/10). One can print the Help file vehicle coverage list and get the currrent list of accessaible vehicles. No one should be using version 2.8 at this point, it is very much out of date. If you have a question as to whether "vehicle"x" was accessible using version 2.8, back in 2006 when that was the current version, opening a copy of version 2.8 and printing the accessible vehicle list there would address that narrow point; however, today, that coverage is irrelevant. For example, Chrysler and additional Ford vehicles were introduced in version 3.0 in 2007 and they would not have been listed in version 2.8 but are listed as accessible today. So, if someone is using 2.8 today and you're concerned as to whether or not that version will access a specific vehicle, really, the greater concern is the fact that someone using that old a version is seriously out of date with the technology.

"CDR" is the system - the Crash Data Retrieval system - used to access data which may be stored in airbag control modules, rollover sensors and powertrain control modules depending on the OE. There is no "CDR" in a car, SUV or light truck. The Bosch CDR system does not access data in Infiniti vehicles (at least at this time) but you may want to have a lawyer client or prosecutor you're working with inquire of their corporate office about data stored in one of those modules. However, askng them if there's data in a "CDR" in that car will likely result in a response "we don't have 'CDRs' in our vehicles" which is an entirely correct response but may not. answer the question you're really trying to ask.

No, it is not. What you're proposing is called "VIN Spoofing" and it is specifically NOT a supported process and is strongly discouraged. Assuming that you DO actually get the CDR program to communicate with the otherwise UNsupported module, you CANNOT be sure any recovered data is translated correctly. Part of the proper translation process often includes a reliance on the VIN and "spoofing"a VIN may result in data being incorrectly translated.

The Bosch Crash Data RETRIEVAL system does NOT "reset" airbag CONTROL modules. Moreover, except where an airbag control module may be useed for more than one deployment event, the OE service manuals call for the module to be replaced with a new one. Replacing an airbag conrtol module with a used part and one with questionable "resetting" may make that module unreliable in the event of a future crash event. Reusing airbag control modules is NOT recommended.

There are no pictures of airbags on the bottom of any airbag control module. You most progably have something else. Moreover, check the most current version of the CDR program to make sure that the cable being called out it in fact the right one.

The current version is 3.4 and should be installed after UNinstalling other pervious versions. Uninstalling the program doesn't delete previously imaged crash data; however, to be sure, you should always backup CDR files in a second location.
