It a good quality item and work as it should most of the time,. I use it a few times, and it does works but I do have to reenter the specific car I was driving a few times and unplug and replug to the OBD port located underneath the driver areas, but overall, it works and give you the specific of the problems and provide you with a PO code and for the price of the item, it’s a good deal and a must have in order to keep the repair shop honest.

This thing is freakin awesome!!!! it doesn't just give you a code, it tells you what is wrong. if you are not a mechanic like me you might have to look up what it means lol. I have a mechanic friend who is surprised that I got this at this price.

I worked professionally performing car diagnostics for a little while, so I guess you could say my expectations were really high to begin with. I don't have any complaints and so far I've used it for three different vehicles (two Fords and a Toyota). It's intuitive if you have some experience with diagnostics, but the instructions are very brief, so if you get this, you might want someone a little more knowledgeable to help you navigate it.I didn't compare it to any other tools at the same time, but it did read an engine code on one vehicle that I was expecting, along with showing ignition count since last DTC on another vehicle, and that number was about what I expectedFunctionality wise, it's great; it reads DTCs pretty quick, and if there is a code, gives a short description of the issue. Also shows Live Data, which can be a great resource if you're troubleshooting something that doesn't throw a code (like why your AC isn't as cold as it should be).Only reason for not doing 5/5 stars is because I'm used to advanced diagnostics and this device made me feel very limited (for personal use, I think this device is perfectly fine).

I am always skeptical of these budget scanner/diagnostic tools, but this one is IT. It claimed to interface with all late model Mercedes ECUs, and it does. Plugged it in, selected the appropriate parameters and ECU type and boom - you can access a plethora of diagnostics including resetting and clearing non-permanent codes.

Great to have in your vehicle tool bag. Allows you to have an idea about engine issues before you take your car to the dealer for repairs. The device provides a problem code.

Husband loves his new scanner and it works great.

Work very Well. Easy to use.

It's too early for a good rating on this product so I can only give it 3 stars, after I use it for a while I can rate it properly. It sure looked good from the other reviews. Time will tell!
