Thanks for your videos and information I bought this scanner tool, good man.

Hi, I went and bought one of these on your video. It does everything you said. The registration was vague, but sorted out in end. Really comprehensive and quick. Greta value

These are great for quick access to some data and codes. I have had on occasions got wrong values on my autel, but getting a fast answer to determine if its a simple fix or if I have to connect a specific scanner is worth it.

Thanks for the video, very informative, brought one & can't wait to use it!

Any chance you can put a vid up of the special functions available? Been researching this tool a lot and not much info on it

Wow i was hoping you would do this product, came across it after i watched your other topdon product two days ago

2 modules(BMW 530i) in the boot/trunk where tire set got wet. Can it be replaced without the parts number on hand or available?

Thanks Dean, have purchased this product. On your recommendation, and using the device it appears excellent with so many features. As they say PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE to gain proficiency in its use, and the device will have paid for itself in a short time. Thanks for all the effort you put into these videos it is interesting and most useful. Keep safe, keep well.

Does this show when you turn lights on or indicators that there active the foxwell nt726 does but only has 8 maintenance functions

Hi, wanted to ask if this can do the full CBS resets on the BMWs, resetting the pollen filter, oil filter, brake fluid, front and rear pads resets, etc.

I don't think this does activations on the modules? Another must have really. Still may be a better bet than the Autel MK series (which does not do activations either)

Hi, can you disable the seatbelt reminder using this device on en e92? Thanks

Hi. Does this do elv reset on bmw?

Hey man I got a e90 and I did my valve cover swap and now my car doesn’t show drive or reverse on the dash . If I leave it in drive or reverse for about 30 seconds the car will jerk then move and won’t shift out of first gear along with 2 codes . I had no prior transmission problems before doing the valve cover . Also if I shift it into drive then park park will go away and I can clear my codes while my car is on and my park will come back but no reverse or drive . I already checked my wires under my shift knob and didn’t find a short the codes I get are A3AA and 5658 and CF17 any help is appreciated

It looks nice but it does not have special actuator test functions, that is, it does not have bi-directional function.

Bro, In America, those cars are nightmares. I use to have a top beemer tech come to my shop to work on beemers. He would never touch that car, seriously. He said it was one of 2 bermers he would never touch because something is messed up from the factory and was never figured out. Im not a beemer tech, but I do take the man for his word since he is in the top 10 bmw techs in America. 3 motors in 7 months ? 😕 Wow .

One feature its missing is having the vehicles battery voltage at the top of the screen.

I have a faulty speed sensor, vsc traction control/ engine management light keep knocking off then back on again. Will this tool keep them off permanently?

Hi, if you change your speed sensor then more than likely all your other problems will disappear..if you think about what the computer has to do then it must have all the necessary systems working properly. Think of it as the captain of a large aircraft or ship. If he isn’t supplied with all the correct information from his support staff then how can he perform his many tasks successfully? VSC Sounds familiar hence me answering you. On my previous8 car a Lexus LS400 I was giving it the once over after purchase and while cleaning the ultra ultra delicate Mass airflow sensor I damaged it, silly me but no matter. When I restarted the car there came the bong, bong, bong to attract my attention to the fact that my VSC is turned off. I didn’t turn it off the car did.. I then did some cranium scratching and wondered what in hell I had done that could possibly have caused this..I replaced the MAF Sensor and hey presto VSC was now working correctly.. still a little puzzled I thought about what these brilliant vehicle manufacturers and designers were all about. Of course they want the car to run great but if there’s a problem they don’t want to leave you stranded so they may put you in limp mode or as in my case they turned off the VSC System. This is because as captain computer didn’t have all the necessary system’s info to hand then forgive him but how can he still control everything perfectly? A bit stubborn these captains/computers it’s either a yes or no and no in between. I’ve not long bought a Lexus LS460 with a humongous amount of codes and warning lights galore on the dash when driving. They list… Radar Cruise Control VSC, VSCG?, LKA (Lane Keep Assist) and a few others. Then the next day all’s well, no ‘problems at all. These many various faults have obviously been why I saved roughly £4000.00 GBP on its purchase. Turns out that all these systems are part of the same family of systems so if one can’t work others who rely on that system as such they stop working too. Nasty little buggers they are lol. So after a steering angle relearn the faults all disappeared and everything worked well… Until I had the cruise control on and happen to touch the brake pedal. (I didn’t want to go round a bend while a slow moving car was ahead. So… I touched the brakes, no problems doing that. It should have cancelled the cruise control immediately but it was a little hesitant in doing so. Hey presto there’s my warning lights on again… (many bad words were spoken to myself.) Then to my surprise when I turned off my Cruise Control the warning lights also went out. Then when I turned the Cruise Control back on again everything behaved as it should again. Now I’m in diagnostic mode so I had noticed that when the brake pedal was pressed I got all the lights back on again. Then the same routine, turn off Cruse Control all lights go off, turn it back on all things working..Hmmm. I had a fault code on the brake light switch when first ran a scan, had a quick look see and the brake lights were working fine so just thought it had had a faulty switch prior to me buying the car and as it was putting the brake lights on without problem I thought that they had just not cleared the code. (Be careful what you assume!), Of course, yes, the brake light switch was faulty and it’s replacement has solved all the related problems on the car. Just goes to show how anything however minor can affect other systems in its family.. I know I’ve gone on a little long but I’m pretty sure that if you think about it if your cars computer hasn’t got all the necessary info to hand then you can’t expect it to perform 100%. Hope this helps. Regards all. Peter A. (PicassoPete,. Every Job’s a Masterpiece. LoL.)

Nice one Dean ,thanks for sharing your knowledge much appreciated, got bmw 116i 2012 , it blows a puff of blue smoke after idling for a few minutes , do these engine suffer with valve steam seals or any turbo problems? it s done 80k miles. thanks ,

@franklyspeaking4480

3 жыл бұрын

Hello, As a former engine builder, yes & no. The turbo engines, or any engine with a power adder is prone to these problems due to random/sudden increase/decrease in pressure. A normal turbo motor is usually 8:1 compression that "usually" goes up to around 10:1 to 10.5:1 compression. Thats basically a stock setup. There are options though, to help stop the "leak". I would also recommend using high octane fuel/petrol. On any car with a factory power adder, take 20-25k off of the regular maintainence @100k, Depending on how its driven. So at 80k, service the motor & turbo. (Hence, the puff of smoke) Take care !
