It's always been that way with new stuff though. Between exclusivity agreements and whatnot it takes time for the documentation and supplies to be available outside the dealership service supply chain.

Used to be most dealership software tools would work offline because of the global nature of vehicles. Therefore the software tools would leak to the public. Now it’s moving “to the cloud” and that’s getting more complicated.
