For the price you pay for this tester it is good value for money. It is good enough to be used in a workshop. It has a good range and can do most of the things you normaly need in a workshop. You can also buy testers for 10 000$ so it is of course some limits to what you can expect from a disgnostic tool in this price range.

would not auto recognize the vin, so entered it manually.scanned codes, then went to clear the codesit keeps saying communications lost, tried everything, nothing worked, it would just say be sure the dongle is plugged in and the key is on..which both were. even showed the dongle being paired and connected constantly, but could not communicate with it.several times, it came up with "application has stopped responding", so it's being sent back, and spending the money on a better quality scanner

Saved me the first time I used it 2005 911 997 Carrera it would of cost a fortune at the dealership to have them scan love it so far

It insisted that I create an account before I got started. So make sure you have internet signal available or it will get frustrating.It gave me the option to email a report of my diagnostic information. But when I tried to set up that function Google would not let the setup finish. One of the possibilities listed as to why is that there might have been security concerns. Oh well, I can go without emailing the report.This did let me take screenshots and those were easy enough to find afterwards so that's helpful.Also helpful is that this can be turned on even when not attached to the car. However, it does not charge while connected to the vehicle and the battery drains FAST. So fast that I would be concerned about having to stop midway if I needed to use the tool for too long.This did not automatically find the vin for my vehicle and I had to choose the other option to enter it manually. However this did not let me type in my VIN, I had to choose make, model and year. I might just not have found that setting yet.I am trying to teach myself auto repair. I have invested in several different levels of scanners starting from the $20 version all the way up to this one. This one seems more intuitive than other scanners. But I do not like that I have to create an account to use it. I have a lot more playing around to do.

It’s 2 in1 scanner to work in my car and family

worth every dime

This device is really a bit much for the vast majority of home mechanics. The $700 regular price and even the current $500 discounted price just reinforce that. The learning curve is going to be fairly steep even for many men who work on cars.Being well versed in many types of software and possessing some other skills as well, I was able to use it without consulting any outside help. The first step if you want to keep things simple is to just choose the "OBDII" option from the first screen shown after tapping "Diagnostic". That limits what you see to just the standard On Board Diagnostic list items, so much less to worry about but still enough to handle many basic tasks. Of course there are many basic low cost OBDII devices for less than $50, and there are other in between options that are still well below the cost of this one.To get the big list of options on this unit, including many items your car will not have, choose your make from the list and then let the device auto detect everything else. There is a top level VIN auto detect but it did not work on my 2004 VW Passat. I did most of the testing on my 2015 Honda Accord, and I got to hundreds of different functions/tests/status indicators/etc. that way. Most of that stuff will rarely be needed, and realistically much of it is for a mechanic that works on vehicles for a living.The first drawback I encountered is that on the Honda the remote attachment dongle that plugs in down low on the underside of the dash panel did not seat properly. I've connected low cost OBD only devices with no issue on my HOnda, so there is something off about the connector. If you're using this thing frequently this will be a big problem. It did seat just fine in the older VW.The biggest drawback is how slow this thing is. I realize that the vehicle can take some time to respond, but the slowness is not just in waiting on responses. The maker of this device obviously used a slow processor, and/or the software is very inefficient. Again, if you're using this thing a lot the slowness will be a major pain. On top of that when checking things on the Honda just in one very long list, the list returns to the top after every look at any item you select. This means a bunch more scrolling back down the list each time unless you pick everything you want to see on the first pass.Coupled with that slowness, the device will show many options not available on a given vehicle. You click on them and then it takes several seconds to get back a response that the vehicle does not support the function. This limitation is in spite of the fact that the device already knows the year, make, and model of the vehicle such that it should be able to hide almost everything that was not included on that vehicle. Even if there is a concern of changes or of more options on higher end variants of a model, there could be a simple option to unhide functions for advanced use.All things considered, this device is likely to only satisfy a small market segment. The user must be willing to pay $500 or more for a device that they will only rarely use and they need or just want the extended capabilities of this device. The typical DIY mechanic will not need this device, and the pro mechanic will need something that responds much faster and automatically shows only what is available.I did not try the tire pressure monitors included with this. This device was made in China.
