Thinkkcar equipment are top quality I actually bought the thinkdiag dongle after watching the video you made about it
Cracking bit of kit, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
ive got one n i work in a well know garage chain in the uk , we have launch and Bosch diagnostic tools but i keep picking this up honestly for the money it can't be beat
Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I just purchased one in Thailand. British pounds sterling 250. Great price.
Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Where did you get it from for £250/- please
The DPF isnt blocked. What its saying is that its underperforming which means that either 1. The dpf is cracked (run your finger round the inside of the exhaust tip, there should be no soot) or, 2. There is an air leak between the exhaust system before it the dpf (cracked flexijoint/bad gasket) or 3. The pipe leading to the dpf sensor is split.
Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I have a Xtool D7 and a Think Diag 2. I really like the Think Diag 2 for the money or even double the money. The Xtool D7 does more things that I do need occasionally. I am looking to replace it with something a bit more functional. I really like the Thinkcar 689BT and the Lifetime updates is a huge factor as is the ease of use. This scanner seems to be a great value considering the lifetime updates. Honestly, the lifetime updates are really pushing this scanner up towards the top of my radar. 👍😂
This is my new favourite, the menus and speed of functions puts it top, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I don't think much of XTool anymore, I had purchased the xpad 100 a few years ago, followed by the D7. The D7 was purchased from XTool's online store on Aliexpress and at the time of purchase, they were offering lifetime software updates. I screenshot all pictures and my bill of sale, which all state that lifetime software updates are included with my purchase, but XTool has unfortunately cut me off and wants me to pay for any future updates!
I've sent them multiple screenshots as proof of their selling the D7 with the unlimited updates, but they don't care and respond that they only offer 3 years of updates! I made it clear to them that the only reason for my deciding on the D7 was the unlimited updates for life, but even though I've made several attempts to reason with them and was told to kick rocks if I'm not willing to now pay for updates.
Thanks for the video.
You are welcome! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hello Sir,
Thanks for sharing this great video review. You covered almost every detail 😊
I recently received mine 689bt that is enough for my use and needs.
There are 2 main features that I really miss. First, car's voltage in the notification bar is not available in this model. Second, a searching bar in the data stream section in order to save time looking for a specific item.
Someone can miss having at least a back camera but in my case I prefer to use my cellphone when I need to take a photo or record a video.
In general, I'm okay with my purchase and not having to pay additional fees in the future (for what it can last) 😅
Its an impressive Bir of kit, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Brilliant review, just ordered one can you do a few more videos showing its daily use ? often get things that people rave about but then never explain everything that the units can do. New sub added and video liked. I work mostly french motors and often find there is little coverage, with the youtubers showing everything on cars that we dont have in the uk. Great video channel keep up the good work.
You wont be disappointed its a brilliant scanner, plenty more videos to come, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Brilliant, looking forward to seeing what it can do. Thanks for the quick reply. I ordered one got it for £257 so a bargain hopefully
@pabloeats8562 hi there can ya send me link to where i can get 1 for £257 .
many thanks
Hi, because of your nice video, I got yesterday my Thinkscan 689BT delivered, I already played with it, I have a Opel Meriva 2004 that has an F error regarding easytronic, but unfortuantly the scanner gives not equiped as message at scanning. I don't know if I made a mistake or the scanner couldnt read it.
It should read it, you will need to input the vin number manually, the main issue with these is the clutch wearing, you sometimes need to remove the black plastic bung on the front of the gearbox, and manually screw the clutch release then they work again, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Nice video and thanks for the showcase. Can you please confirm on your E91, can you monitor live data for DPF soot and ash levels?
Yes you can! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 Thanks, because on my LAUNCH X431 CRP919E BT there was no such option for my N47 engine only differential pressure, which is very strange for the price range of the product, because on some free scanner you would have such live data. Thanks for the info, because I'm considering this scanner to replace my Launch.
QUESTION: how can you go into the PCM control unit, where on the menu?
14:45
control unit I can copy the settings
14:48
that are on it if that control unit had
14:50
failed you would be able to plug a new
14:52
one in or one out of another vehicle
14:54
reload the original settings to that
14:57
unit
The same as in the video where I backup the control unit for the combined instrument panel, As before you would go to the PCM module in the coding menu backup then restore to the new unit. Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thanks for taking the time to review. Will it code TPMS and new keys? Thanks
It will on some models, you might need a bolt on module for some others, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@aaanton11 thanks for the reply, what do you mean by "bolt on modules", sorry to be thick lol
Nice I have an autel maxis 908 pro and thinking getting one soon
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thank you for producing this. Is this the same maker that makes the Thinkcar Platinum S8, and if so -- are those similar?
Yes very similar, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Great review. Have the same car, 2011 Bmw. Can it code replaced EPS? I have to replace my electric steering rack and it requiers coding after.
I thought the steering racks are plug and play on these, but you can reset it and set the steering angle once fitted, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 Has to be coded, same like frm module for example.
Nice review. Does it support writing service history into the HUD for the BMW’s and Mini’s? Thanks.
it will reset the service history, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@ ok SERVICE RESET IS DIFFERENT. writing the service history into the HUD is like having your service records. Does it support that function? Thanks
Good video thanks for sharing that information best all you answer all the replies mate got a ford focus mk3 titanium x diesel alternator went coming up mate cranking excided will this do the job please 😊😊
It will reset all the stored faults, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

Its not something I have tried on an Audi, but it will code modules, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

Hello
I was thinking to buy the thickcar 689bt and i just would like to know if they have updated the device to see the car battery on the status bar
Not Yet, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Yes.
Where is the best place to buy this in the UK? The link above is a website in the US, so I don’t want to be hit by import duties. There's an eBay shop, but it's difficult to tell if it's an official shop or an importer that will also have duties.
Use this link and click the GBP in the top right corner, the units are posted from the uk so no import duties shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=2310847&u=3621653&m=140171&urllink=&afftrack=
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@aaanton11 but when you go to checkout the it coverts back to dollars from GBP?
Dose Support the old Cars like 2000 and more because i want to buy it
Yes it will, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hi, do you know if this tool covers SCR/NOX resets on 2018 on Mercedes Sprinter vans?
I can't see why not, it comes with a 30day return if you are not happy with the unit, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Can we check injector ?
Yes it will do injector coding, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
is there a search tab when selecting PIDS , cheers
What's PIDS? Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@aaanton11 when you opened up the data values , is there a drop-down tab to search for a certain pid, i.e. , airmass , rather than flicking through all the data pids , cheers
@@robertmobileman8304 There is no search function for PID unfortunately. A bit of an oversight I think😮
@@aaanton11you doing a review of an OBD scanner and you not aware of what a PID is🙄
Did they send you this for free? I’m guessing they did 🙄
@@Law_Abiding_Citizen_ok I am old Skool & would call a PID an engine management sensor, or "EMS", but now I know PIDs are On Board Diagnostics “Parameter IDs”, codes used to request data from a vehicle, The same thing! Every day is a School Day, This is why I make the videos, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Does anyone know if it can do proxi alignment on Fiat and Alfa Romeo?
It will do steering angle reset Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Can u take seatbelt chime off on bmw e90 with this?
I will have a look, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Can this scanner do key programming?
You can carry out some key functions, You can add keys without the need for additional equipment. However, key programming may not work on all vehicles as it depends on the specific vehicle and key types. for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11do you know any makes that it does program keys for? Not pointing any fingers at yourself but many YT reviewers claim things which in the end aren’t true and it’s all paid promo. I hope you aren’t one of them as the video was pretty good.
Be interested to learn at least 1 UK car make it will program a key for.
I don’t think it does
Does it do ADAS??
yes, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
