Seems like a good scanner. Has some cool features of higher end scan tools that I've owned and used. Probably worth investing in for a small shop or hobby/diy guy.
I have the BlueDriver unit that I bought this fall. Works similar but uses my smartphone to display the information. Only $99. If I did this for a living I would spring for one of these.
Awesome tool. That would be pretty useful for diagnosing just about anything that only happens when you drive the vehicle, Especially Diesel sensors. I love the fact it you can go on line, that YT function to be able to view videos while fixing a car is just about priceless. I can't count the number of times I've had to go back inside and watch a video then go back outside to work on a car. Tell them super job, just get RID of that BEEP, that drove me nuts. Have them put a chime in it or something less irritating, or software option to put your own status notification in it. Super Review. Thanks for sharing. Best Wishes n Blessings. Keith Noneya

can you bleed abs brakes with the Autel MAXICOM MK808 on a 2002 ford explorer
I work at a dealership and we have the commercial version for iff makes. From my experience the autel's durability is undeniable, it's super easy to use, and I haven't found anything yet that it can't do. I found this video because I'm looking into getting this one myself!
I just checked and a diagnostic check at Honda usually runs between $88 and $111. I usually keep a car for ten years and sometimes more, thus it would be worth it for people like me.

I just got one of these. I love it. Been the best tool I’ve purchased to date and it will tell you everything that’s wrong with a vehicle. I like being able to program key fobs, tpms sensors, bleeding ABS systems. Great system for the price. The only thing I don’t really like is the price for updates after 2 years. Think it’s like $500. Also you can pull up the history email the report and look up codes on a vehicle later.

snap on gives free updates for 6 months after that they come out quarterly and cost close to 700 bucks. no one can complain about the cost of updates if you look at all the time it takes to compile all the information and then build the software package. If you are a do-it-yourselfer and the scan tool has what you need you can shose not to purchase the update. i dont have that option, i have no idea what is waiting in my parking lot in the morning when i open up.

Danny Scarpati I work on vehicles for a living and what you said about snap-on is the exact reason why I didn’t choose their tool. The cost of updates are a little on the ridiculous side with snap-on. I have two different scan and diagnostic tools from Autel and they’re both great products. I have this exact scan tool and I have another that’s got all the bells and whistles. Can’t remember what the model number is, but it’s wireless and is able to use add on accessories for doing a lot of large diesel trucks I work on often.

Come on down to Georgia. We don't even have to go through an inspection by the govt. The only people who plug up to your vehicle are mechanics. I've got a light on on the dash right now and the mechanic told me to ignore it. The code was in reference to a canister that catches fumes when you fill the car. I guess we're pretty lax down here. The only places in GA that do the inspections are the metro Atlanta counties and I hear they are pretty tough.
I would love a comparison of this and harbor freight's latest tool, maybe even the snap on

Hi looks good would this unit be able to register a new battery to a 2006 BMW 318i
Thanks for the INFO !
Was thinking about getting this scanner for the shop to do pre and post scans on vehicles. The snap on scanners have a really easy to read print out that will show the different fault codes in a pretty simplistic way. Does this scanner do the same by chance? It seemed like it had access to all the systems the snap on one does, I just don't know if it's as easy to read for customers. But this would save us like $2000. Plus it has updates that are cheaper and less frequent.
Thanks for made this video but I've a question why you didn't description about immobilizer?

@@angelavillegas4320 Can't really buy the dealership units. They use Panasonic toughbooks with the software on them and a base mounted to them with VCI (vehicle control interface) built in. The most reliable setup available to the consumer is the Techstream software (which is fairly affordable) installed onto a regular laptop with a Drewtech Mongoose VCI cable ($400-700 depending on where you look). This Autel is by far the better deal, to be honest.

From what I understand, this particular model is not a full bidirectional scanner. I don't believe it has output test capabilities. What I'd like to know is if it has the capability to do idle relearn, throttle body initialization, and other functions like GM abs auto bleed. If this is truly a "read only" scanner, then I'd say it's a bit limited, but I don't think the price point is unreasonable for this tool. You're gonna put out some $$$ for a fully bidirectional scanner.

I bought this unit specifically to zero the steering wheel angle sensor on a 2012 Chevrolet Corvette. It would not auto find the VIN, it would not communicate with the ECM, and it gave a communication error trying to do the SAS which is Steering Angle Sensor. Autel was pretty good on phone support. The tech used the remote access , and tried all the things I tried to make it communicate, including reloading S/W, and selecting the Corvette under GM. Told me to check the fuse on the ECM. Really???? No go on the Corvette. Tried it on my 2013 Toyota Tacoma. It would not auto find the VIN , and it had no modules that it would communicate with. He told me it would take about 3 days for support to get back to me. I told him it’s going back to Amazon for credit. Amazon is great. I boxed it up, printed the shipping label and took it to UPS. In less than an hour, I had full credit. The tech suggested I buy the MX808 instead. I’m going to buy a GM Tech II clone.
