Review on Launch X431 Pro Mini: Full System Car Diagnostic Scanner with Bidirectional Scan Tool, Active Test, Key Program, and ECU Coding - Same Function as Launch X431 V Pro by Francisco Holmes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

BUY BUY BUY! The only scanner you will need in 2017. If you want junk, buy a snap-on.

I live outside of Canada and am very happy with this product. The device is small, the smallest of the scanning tools I've looked at. This tool is the latest launch product launched in 2017. I took a big risk buying it because it wasn't released in North America. But it's good that it worked, because the software updates are newer than in North America. Example. on X431 Mini Porsche Firmware V21.91. In the current software from launchtechusa.com/North America this is V21.81. It depends on the software! No matter where these machines are manufactured, the software must be up to date. I used to have an older version of Launch GDS that was giving me problems. with Acura, Honda, Toyota and Nissan. Thank goodness the problems are gone with this new device. BMW, Benz and VW software is by far the best you can find on the market. Used and bought the previous Snapon-Verus, Autel and PIVIS, Vagkom. This tool is by far one of the most comprehensive. CarDiag's customer service is also very good. They answer all questions immediately. Delivery was on time too! faster than I expected.
