but on things like bleeding the brakes

Bought for a 2017 Chevy Colorado with a 2.8 Duramax diesel. I updated it and took it to my truck. The DPF function, sensor 02, evaporator, etc. do not work for me. The DPF screen doesn't even list GM or Chevrolet, but in things like brake bleed, SAS, etc. there is a GM choice. Updating was a pain too. They went to the dbscar.com website but that didn't help so I had to google "update 9081" which led me to the launchx431 website where it took about 5 minutes to navigate and find the update screen. I have this for bi-directional tools but it doesn't seem to work on my car. I'll probably send it back and look for a snap-on Ethos or another with true bi-directional capabilities. It would be nice to know what features it will support on which vehicles before you buy it.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Safety
