  • Saved me hundreds
This OBD reader has saved myself (and coworkers) hundreds of dollars. I do a lot of my own maintenance work on my cars, in some instances I can do the repairs and some I take it to a shop. Knowing the code before showing up to the shop may save you a lot of money. I will explain below. Even if you don't do a lot of mechanics this is a good little tool to have. I decided to get one after my wife had a check engine light come on, she took it to a dealer and paid the $30.00 fee to have it diagnosed. They said it was an exhaust system sensor malfunction and a big portion of the exhaust was needing replacement, this repair was quoted at $800.00. We could not afford that at the time so that night I came to Amazon and purchased this unit as it was quick shipping and a decent price. It came in a few days. I plugged it into my wife's car and was shocked when I saw that the check engine light was due to the gas cap not being on right after she refueled the morning it turned on. I literally walked to the drivers side unscrewed and screwed the cap back in and bam light turned off. I am not saying all mechanics are sketchy, but this saved us hundreds. I have since used it for co-workers who have had lights come on. I have helped them replace parts as well. My Recommendation: I would recommend, even if used once every so often you could be potentially saving yourself a lot of money. ... show more

  • Works, but not well. Can't read much on F350 diesel 6.0L.
Bought this to check live data - fuel and oil pressure, temperature, injector control voltage, ICP position, duty cycle, etc. It can literally ONLY read temperature and RPM, and I already have those on my dashboard. It cannot even read the vehicle VIN or engine information, turbo boost, battery voltage, intake air pressure, exhaust backpressure or anything else that my aftermarket chip can already provide. This tool offers nothing but a nice graph of the engine RPM. It can't even read the codes, so I didn't attempt clearing the "air intake temp circuit high" code that I could see on my other display. Useless on 2003 Ford 6.0L diesels. But - it powers up and looks pretty. Works perfectly on 2005 VW Touareg. ... show more

  • A must have for any car owner!
Amazing product! Save hundreds of dollars from buying this inexpensive tool, this is a must have for any car owner whether you know how to fix cars or not you NEED to own one. Installation is very easy, you just need to find the On Board Diagnostics (OBD) port on your vehicle, if you have issues finding the port you can always just refer to your car manual or via google search which normally tends to be a lot quicker than flipping through your manual. But just find the port, connect the dongle to the port and then turn your ignition on and done! Absolutely no batteries necessary. You can now view if there are any codes thrown or issues with your engine or ECU. Navigating through the menu is quick, easy and smooth, you can look up diagnostic trouble codes (DTC), I/M readiness status test for checking if you will pass emissions, O2 sensor test, onboard monitor test, read descriptive codes, clear codes and more! Thankfully I was fortunate to receive this product almost right before my car threw a Check Engine Light (CEL), plugged this bad boy in, saw the pending issues with random misfirings between cylinder 1 and 2. Had the ignition coils, wires and spark plugs replaced on both cylinders, cleared codes, CEL is gone and my car is up and running again! Saved me a trip to my local mechanic to have it looked at and having to pay $150 for their “full” point-to-point inspections before having any work done. Save some money and buy this tool! It’ll help you easily to decide whether or not you even need to have your vehicle serviced professionally either by your local shop or dealership whom will constantly up sell you or rip you off regardless of the issue, JUST BUY IT! ... show more
