Review on πŸ”§ Autel MaxiAP AP200 Bluetooth OBD2 Scanner - Full System Car Diagnostic Scan Tool for iOS & Android, Check Engine Light Code Reader with 25 Service Functions by Robert Gilbert

Revainrating 5 out of 5

If you work with Honda, buy this tool!

This little thing is amazing. I work as Honda's chief engineer at a dealership and I'm a little skeptical of what this is supposed to do. I've been looking for a way to program Honda/Acura immobilizer keys with my cellphone for a while. I've seen other expensive scan tools and bluetooth dongles all claiming options for this in the $150-$200 minimum range. So when I found this one and had a lightning fast $44 deal at the time, I couldn't turn it down. I tried it out on a 2018 Honda Pilot for the first time the other day and was blown away by what it could do. Does almost everything a Honda HDS can do. I had the opportunity to program the new key on a 2006 Pilot so I was curious to see if it would work. So I did the key program procedure and it worked pretty much the same as using the Honda HDS. I cannot recommend this tool enough. It also has the ability to scan all DTCs and erase all DTCs with quick clear function without having to log into each individual system. He's still trying things and learning everything he can.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Some nuances
