Review on Autel MaxiCheck Pro: ABS Brake Auto Bleeding OBD2 Scan Diagnostic Tool with SRS Airbag, Oil Reset, SAS, EPB, BMS - Lifelong Free Software Update - NOT for All Cars by Kevin Ilango

This is a scanner with a surprisingly impressive array of features normally only found in much more expensive units including automatic ABS venting and airbag diagnostics and reset. to be two of them. It also allows the user to connect to live data. what is actually relevant and from what repairs can be made. There are some differences in Autel's capabilities from one manufacturer to another. For example, it can automatically bleed the brakes on a Chevrolet, but it might not on a Mercedes, and although it can do some very complex operations on a BMW battery, estimate the state of charge, determine the current draw. resetting the battery diagnostic system when changing the battery and even charging the battery via its own diagnostic connection, this is not possible with my Silverado. The fact that these operations are available for any brand of car just amazed me. The scanner can be a bit stubborn in use. Sometimes the screen is slow to respond to prompts, and when selecting a module to access current engine data, the same module provided a vastly different set and type of data from one test session to the next. However, if you stick around after that, this device provides a lot of information, much more than the other brands of scanners I've used. For example, with the help of Autel, I was able to check each of my eight cylinders for misfires, which I couldn't do before. All in all, this is a tool that, with a little know-how and common sense, can be of real help to the DIY enthusiast when diagnosing engine problems and repairing anti-lock braking systems. Finding something more than a glorified code reader in this price range is a real plus.
