Great tool if you are on a budget, offer a lot of different options and make it easy to work on your own projects

Like many of you, I rarely leave reviews. This product, however, warrants it. Whether you use it on one or multiple vehicles, it will still pay for itself quickly. The bottom line: It is well worth the money and has many uses if you are DIY oriented. It will save you hundreds of $$$ immediately. Recently I had to tow one Jeep (TJ) on an auto transport with our other Jeep (08 XK) as the tow vehicle for a trip into the mountains. The tow vehicle began exhibiting drive train issues about two weeks before the trip and began displaying the "service 4wd" error on the VIC. I drove it as it was until my wife called me one morning saying the vehicle made a grinding noise from underneath and had no power. I tried all of the known methods to clear the code myself, as well as using another brand's BT reader to retrieve the code. The other brand's reader would only give me the base code relating to the PCM and nothing more. I cleared this code but it immediately came back. Off to the dealer I went. The dealer used the Snap-on version of the unit sold here to clear the codes. At this point we are two days away from the trip. That same night, I ordered the Autel unit and Amazon had it to me the next day. After the dealer cleared the PCM codes all was well. The XK had full power, 4LO and 4HI worked just fine. We left on our trip and the XK did just fine. I will mention that I never keyed off the ignition until we reached our final destination 600 miles away. The day after arrival I went to move the XK and it immediately threw the "service 4WD" VIC message once again. I hooked up the Autel unit, scanned for codes and cleared them, just as the dealer did. On the return trip there were no errors at all and, once again, I never keyed off the ignition until we were home. A few days later, my wife said the CEL was on so I scanned it once again with the Autel. Several codes were found, including the "service 4WD" error. I cleared all but the power train codes because, after multiple scans, I was seeing a pattern. The issue was with the transfer case shifter motor. I called the dealer to ask if this was covered under my (lifetime) powertrain warranty. To my surprise it was! This alone paid for the unit and then some as the dealer replaced not only the shifter motor, but the associated wiring harness as well. On to the next vehicle - we have a Honda Fit in the fleet that runs great. Several years ago, the second key to the vehicle was lost. The dealer wanted $250 for a new key and another $100 to program it. Here on Amazon I purchased two new key blanks with the immobilizer chip for $19. I took them to the dealership we bought the car from and they charged me $16 to cut both keys. Within 10 minutes after returning home, I had both new keys programmed to the car with the Autel unit. Amazing. The unit is very intuitive and the company pushes updates all the time. When you first setup the unit, you may have to wait a while for all the updates to finish. Take this time to charge the internal battery to 100% while you do something else. It is well worth the money and it saved a cross-country trip.

Works well, compatible with most cars, good diagnostics, abs scans, hot functions, everything good, good subscription for a year, I just reached the end, only had problem scanning 2018+ jeep dodge etc. Good product, recommend

This is a powerful diagnostic tool, one every DIYer should have. It is so much better than the basic scan tools that only read trouble codes. Yes it is an investment but think about how much a shop charges just to diagnose the problem, and you have to hassle with getting your car there, waiting for it, getting a call with news about the problem and how much they are going to charge you to fix it, etc. With this tool you can identify the problem and then decide if you want to do the repair yourself or take it to a shop. Many times you can find a video showing how to replace the part and save a lot of time and money, and have the satisfaction of fixing your own car. This tool can pay for itself many times over with the savings of diagnosing and repairing the problem yourself.

Autel MK808 automotive diagnostic scanner is a great scanner with limits. Being advertised as a full system diagnosis with 25 special functions such a TPMS, Brake Bleeding, BMS system and so on. Well the truth is, you are limit to what you could do based on your vehicle. As a FORD vehicle owner I am limit what functions I could do with this unit. If you own a 2017 model you will be very limited versus a 2005-2011 model where you have more functions to run a test on. I also own a Volvo where I am not able to do break bleeding at all. The best thing is to check Autel website under vehicle coverage and see what special function you're able to do on your vehicle with their products. I did see faults on the volvo vehicle where a regular OBD2 reader wouldn't show. Out of those 25 special functions, I was only able to do about 5 or so. If you have any questions, it is best to contact Autel directly and ask them before buying. I was looking to at a higher end model with a J2534 inlcuded, but found out it is very limit what I could do with it when it comes to programming.

Outstanding tool! The tech writer that created the instruction made it easy to learn how to use the MK 808 and identify the status of the vehicle.. I used it to evaluate a used car that I wanted to purchase and it enabled me, a nonprofessional, to test the vehicle. It identify problems, it explained the codes,suggest reasons for the failure indications, show corrective actions and showed web sites to find further information. I was able to purchase the vehicle with the MK808 test, a Carfax and a physical inspection, I felt sure that it had no mechanical issues. The MK808 also performs the emission test that is required to pass the required state inspection. The MK808 and additional cables that I purchased arrive quickly and in perfect condition. . I used it to test two other old vehicles that I own and it identified two problems that I was able to repair at a great savings. It has paid for itself. I most highly recommend it

Autel MK808S Scanner has above average Diagnostic abilities and is pretty easy to learn how to use. I have been using with a 2000 Dodge 3500 Diesel and a 2004 Hyundai Sonata. It is a nice little scanner tool that gets updates regularly. All I can say is it has been worth every penny to me.

I own quite a few Autel branded scan tools that work great , but this is not one of them . I purchased for size and what Autel claims . First of all it is super slow. Very few actual data comes up in #s just yes or no , no bidirectional capabilities as stated in description and this is just a glorified code reader for $500 . As a shop owner there are many options on the market and maybe it's low price point is the most appealing but don't buy It . Either step up to the 1k plus prices or purchase something else that either just reads code for under $100 or invest in true bidirectional scan tool.

Nickel fonctionne très bien sûr beaucoup de marques utilisation essentiellement sur Isuzu dmax parfait , facile d’utilisation

This has worked perfectly for the several vehicles I’ve used it on. It has pretty much paid for itself.

Works well

TUTTO PERFETTO
