Review on 🚗 LAUNCH X431 Creader VII+ Car Code Reader: Advanced EOBD, OBD2 Scanner for Engine/Transmission/ABS/Airbag System Testing & PC Updates by Timothy Weems

I have been using this scanner for a week so far. It's...damn good, especially at this $150 price point. To be honest, I'm neither an experienced do-it-yourself auto repair and maintenance enthusiast nor a total novice. So my review can be a kind of reference work for you. Firstly, this diagnostic tool comes with a paper carrying case containing the main unit, user manual, OBD2 cable, USB cable and USB sticker. You can save important diagnostic data to TF card or use it to update software. Felt like a PSP when holding it with one hand. It's lightweight and appears to be non-slip. In terms of diagnostic features, it is almost certain that the features offered by this scanner are the same as advertised. I tested it on three cars in my family - 2012 Ford F-150, 2015 Toyota Camry, 2016 Chevrolet Equinox LS. Works perfectly with all these vehicles, reads and clears codes in OBD, engine, transmission, ABS and airbag systems. I thought this scanner supports oil reset and SAS reset, actually it doesn't. It's an VIII that looks like this VII+ that supports reset services. My only complaint is that it's a bit difficult for me to register my scanner so I can update the scanner. Does it have to be that annoying? Hopefully this can be improved, after all it's not an easy task for most users. Overall, the scanner is great for basic diagnostics. The seller responded quickly when I asked for help. By the way, I definitely recommend everyone to get this for a simple DIY car repair or repair, so that you can seriously save a lot of time and money on car maintenance.
