Great video, if I only want to work with electric vehicles, which one do you recommend? I am searching for my first scanner to learn with my own car.

Is it possible to change mileage with Thinkdiag tools?

Great video.

You're welcome JC! I cover a comparison of each towards the end of the video to help you decide (feel free to use the bookmarks on the video to jump to the section of interest).

Hello there Thanks for the video, witch one do you recommend to use it on Honda CRV 2018 and Accord 2018. To read codes and change brake pads and do regular maintenance

@AlexAutoFun

Hi! Normally brakes and normal maintenance can be performed without using a scanner. Reading codes can also be performed with a basic scanner like this kzread.info/dash/bejne/e2iBqqlmZqXKiNY.html However if you are looking to access advanced functions of the ABS module, both the Thinkdiag and Thinkdiag2 support Honda (you can see Honda during the vehicle coverage portion of the video) Cheers!

@@AlexAutoFun the reason i ask is because i replaced the brake pads on my crv and all the lights came on, brake lights, vsa, and radar also, just because of that. Had to go to a friend of mine who has a scanner and erase those fault codes. I think i will go with the Thinkdiag, it has all i need

Hi Tarik! The Thinkdiag 1 or 2 would be good choice if you are in a very limited budget. However if budget allows a larger scanner like this one would be a better choice kzread.info/dash/bejne/lmWrqKNsl9bXYpM.html as it will support multiple vehicles after the expiration date, where the Thinkdiag is really meant for the at home mechanic that may only need to work on a single car.

Does it capable activating features like carly does? I mean activating cornering light ? Or adaptive Lights?

@AlexAutoFun

2 ай бұрын

Hi Akos! Unfortunately I have not tested Carly so I can't comment on it's features or performance. However yes Thinkdiag supports activation features. Just remember that actually being able to activate a specific component or feature varies from vehicle to vehicle (vehicles have different levels of control, some allow you to active more things than others) Thinkcar does accepts VIN numbers if you want them to check if it will be able to access the specific function you need. And I have more scanner reviews on my channel in the playlist "OBD2 Scanner Reviews" if you like to compare them. Cheers!

Great features, but will it show how much air pressure there is in each tire? TPMS (PS: I have 5 full size tires)

@AlexAutoFun

6 ай бұрын

Hi Tech! The scanner supports TMPS, however the actual PID's you will be able to read will depend on your car depending on which sensors it has and what information those sensors can communicate to external tools (Some TPMS systems can communicate actual PSI and some can only communicate if they are off their target PSI. ThinkCar does accepts VIN #'s if you want them to check if it will be able to access the function you need. Cheers!

How much is the subscription after a year of free updates, inquiring for somebody interested in the thinkdiag 2 (south africa)

@AlexAutoFun

Hi Nsabosd! The price varies depending on what area your are located at, if there are any discounts or coupons going on, how many yrs the renewal will be for and also when you renew (it's likely price will be different every year). You can also contact Thinkcar if you want an estimate but like I mentioned there will be many factors affecting price. Cheers!

Can this show live transmission temperature?

@AlexAutoFun

2 ай бұрын

Hi Amtrak! Yes the scanner does support reading the transmission temperature. Just remember that some vehicles are not equipped with a transmission temperature sensor, some are quipped with a one but it does not communicate to scanners or only sends the signal to a cluster gauge, and some are equipped with one and can also send data out to a scan tool for readout. Thinkcar does accepts VIN numbers if you want them to check if it will be able to access the specific function you need. Cheers!

can it do immo keys/fobs? does it work on European cars? does it have topology?

@AlexAutoFun

5 ай бұрын

Hi Joey! The Thinkdiag 2 does supports IMMO (you can see that function around the 3:55 mark) but the ability to add a key to your car will depend on the type of key (there are different transponders and frequencies), the year and model of the car etc. Also remember some cars allow you to reuse non virgin keys, and other cars won't (but this can sometimes be bypassed by a dedicated IMMO tool that can make a key virgin again). Regarding EU cars, yes, there is coverage as shown around the 8:20 mark where I cover the supported car brands. Cheers!
