Save $1,000 on code readers and scanners

Absolutely great device. It has already saved me over $1,000. The garage told me I needed a new gearbox. I bought this scanner, downloaded a free app (there are many), and found that the only meaningful transmission code was a faulty turbo speed sensor. I replaced the sensor myself for $25 and the transmission runs like new. I have had other bluetooth OBDII scan tools and this is the only one that actually works. And the company is fully behind it. I'm impressed not only with the device but…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Some little things

Killed my car in diagnostic test and gauge tools

Landcruiser 2000 I had to see what the O2 sensor code was, I plugged it in, waited for a solid red light and then tried that Auto start but it didn't work. Full power accessories, all electronics but nothing when I turn the key, silence. I tried to get the codes when the car is in the "on" position but it didn't help. Checked all the fuses and even reset the battery. Nothing. I pulled out a voltmeter and checked all the connections from the battery to the starter and the relay, everything is…

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Volume

I'm a pro and I love it.

I have been a professional in the automotive industry for almost 20 years and am an ASE L1 Advanced Diagnostics Specialist certified. I can say that this is the best OBDII device I have ever seen. Of course, it won't do much of what the more expensive hardware I'm using ($20,000+) can do, but it's very useful for quick checks and viewing limited lists of real-time data. I use the Piston app for Android and it works very well with it - fast real-time data update rate and good access to freeze…

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Useless features

Works as advertised. This gives my 1999 F150 the few calibers I wanted to tow. Specifically, I now have cylinder head temp, coolant temp, transmission temp (at two different locations), and torque converter slip. These are critical towbar sensors near the manufacturer's maximum towbar rating. I haven't been able to find out the temperature of the engine oil yet - I'll keep trying. The battery does not noticeably drain when the truck is parked for a week with the scan tool installed. The scan…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Legacy model

Excellent customer service

I originally bought this adapter 5 years ago and until recently it worked great when not plugged into my wife's car. However, it connected perfectly to my machine. I have emailed bafx asking if there have been any updates to the adapter since the adapter was purchased. About a day later, Mark from bafx replied to me saying that there were no updates for the device. He let me run some tests and then offered to test my adapter if I sent it to them. I sent it to them and a few days later they sent

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Really don't like it, everything is fine

Killed My Car is suitable for diagnostic, testing and measuring tools

After Amazon failed to deliver this to me 3 times I finally managed to connect my car to the network after reading the basic instructions , made the connection and proceeded to start my machine. My car rolled over once, made weird noises like it wouldn't start, then nothing, absolutely nothing, this thing either broke my computer or was hoping it was some kind of fuse. I still have full power to light up the radio etc but my start doesn't even click or anything and also my DIC which is…

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Suitable

Good tool for car repair, I use mine with Torque Pro on phone

Good basic tool for extracting codes, bluetooth reading on my phone is nice and works very well, I could walk about 20ft from car to Garage reading program on the phone. I bought the Torque Pro program on my phone for $5 to read the issues and it works great. After getting the codes, you can click on them and go online to see a more detailed description of the problem. You can also send a copy of the codes via email or SMS. I bought a 1ft extension cord to plug it in as my OBD connection is…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some little things

This device works exactly as it should and at a great price. I downloaded the app they suggested from Google Play but ended up with another free, ad-free app called Piston. Piston is digital rather than graphic, which I prefer, and tells you everything you need to know. There are much more expensive devices that do not provide more information. This unit doesn't do a few things (ABS/SRS) that you would have to pay a few hundred dollars to get in another unit. For that rare or unlikely need, you

Pros
  • Great fit for me
Cons
  • No instructions

Amazing tool for the money

I was given this to diagnose a P0420 code that my car was giving intermittently for about 6 months. I scanned it at an auto parts store and got the source code, but for an accurate diagnosis I would have to bring it to the store for $45 an hour (I have a discount). I did a bit of searching for a scanner, but I looked up YouTube and found these things that still do the same thing for a fraction of the cost. I searched for a couple of weeks to find a good one and this turned out to be one of the…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
