Review on 🔧 ANCEL VD500 OBD II Diagnostic Scanner: Diagnostic Tool for VW, Audi, Skoda, Seat - Check Engine Light, ABS, SRS, EPB Code Reader + Oil Throttle Position Adaption + Brake Pad Reset by David Cook

scanner to help me change the brakes and rotors on my 2016 VW Passat. The scanner itself is solidly made and doesn't look cheap, but I didn't like it. I followed the instructions that some people kindly posted in their reviews and the scanner didn't do anything. It processed the command I tried for EPB but kept saying "cannot start" and then froze my dash and drained my battery (like my car was having a seizure). I tried it three times and the same thing happened every time. I would have to constantly jump on the machine to get this scanner working. Then I checked to see if it was needed and updated and the site is NOT user friendly AT ALL! I connected the scanner to my computer and was unable to download the new version to the scanner. The scanner screen remained blank and I could not open the scanner file on my computer. All in all, invest in a better scanner! The motto "You get what you pay for" clearly applies to this product. Invest in a better scanner and save yourself the hassle. I needed someone with a $200 scanner to help me and this scanner got the job done with no issues and drained my battery. I hope my review helps you make a decision. I will definitely invest in a better scanner because I enjoy working on my cars and a scanner saves me a lot of time and money.
