AUTEL is an unethical company that takes advantage of its consumers. I acquired a maxisys pro in 2015 and had no reason to upgrade its software because it was compatible with all of my vehicles. A free update released an application that works like ransomware and installs a timer that prevents you from accessing the diagnostic part of the tool. Now, all I get is a “Software is not authorized!” message when I try to use the diagnostic part of my tool The only available option is to purchase an upgrade from Autel for $1400.00. Product knotting is illegal in the United States, and this corporation should be severely punished for what they're doing to their customers in order to create cash flow due to the recent lawsuit Autel settled.
I have exactly the same experience, Bought an Autel MPpro 808ts with 1 year free update. Didn't want to update after 1 year as it worked for my cars. But when I tested it against my Volvo S90 2017 (SPA platform), the instrument required an internet connection. Then I understood that it will not work after the first year. Which is also true. To read out the Volvo SPA platform, I also think that Chrysler works that way, so you have to pay Autel every year. For this tool, it costs 459 dollars per year, a scandal I would say. So what he says in the video is not true.
THANK YOU for the insight… I have been struggling trying to justify spending the kind of money required to access… then to get the carpet yanked…. BULLSHIT !!

Just bought an xtool ip819. In case your wondering because I can't find any info on specifics for supported vehicles on any scan tool. The xtool I bought does not talk to drb 3. So any dodge between 98-07... I've tried it on two different 05 dodges. Same story on both. One is a ram 3500 the other a neon. Support told me If I want to use it on diesel vehicles to buy a diesel scan tool. (The 819 being marketed with 31 special functions and one of which being dpf systems. Which if you don't know is diesel particulate filter.) So I was more than a little pissed to hear this. Figured they mistook what I was saying as me working on a semi I tried to clarify that, then I was met with a reply that indicated the email I was responding to was a general support ticket generator. I sent everything explaining my concerns and the questions I was needing answers to only to not get a response. I'll be returning it and not buying another xtool. Really wanted to like this scanner.
i think xtool a30m is perfect for diy guy,the free subscriptions for me are what make the difference between paper weight and usable device.put yourself in this position,your friend/family member has a issue with their car,your just a diy guy,how any would cough up $40 just to look at that car one time because you have to buy that cars make subscription and that sub only lasts a year. most would never use it and when they did they would use it far far less then the free subscription scanner. i got the xtool a30m that is the $600 platform just in a bluetooth dongle cutting cost to $200.the fact you get pretty much identical platform as these devices/free sub at $200 makes this imo the best deal for the diy guy

Autel recieved a big massive update like month ago and now it does have active tests and covered quite alot models, own this tool and tested it out on s class benz absolutely supreme update! Overall it does scan better than others, why? Been comparing it with different scanners some of those cant read trouble code even out or they just put you referer to owners manual, but once you hit autel up it shows everything proper fault code number, where and why and you can find soultion much faster.
THANK YOU. I had a bad experience with a xtool scanner recently. SO based on your remark, I just now ordered a new MaxiCheck mx808 I hope it does well enough for my 01 Ram 1500 with "fuel timing" issue.
@@robsdeviceunknown The mx808 has some big updates that allows you to reset service light that can't be reset under the oil service light function on the mk808 (for certain makes) you have to access the special function to do it on the mk808.

I HAVE already GOT OVER 67 masters degrees in Auto mechanics from different state colleges because automobiles really are always change way too much every year the auto mechanic never ever stops learning I really do know because I am a REAL ASE certified Master Auto Mechanic OR technician with WAY over 60 years experience my best advice for any person NEVER be a auto technician or a auto mechanic better trades in life to make a REAL living for you and your family auto mechanics do not get paid that much money AlSO most folks can NOT forward to get their automobiles repaired automobiles really do change WAY TOO MUCH EVERY YEAR also Auto mechanic NEVER EVER STOP ! learning
Which one should I get if I want to diagnose to pull up codes that was reset by the owner of the car? I notice that seller now reset the car to sell it but when u buy it and the engine light will come back on in a week or so. Don’t want to get scam. Appreciate the help
Excellent Review! Thank you. Maybe you can advise me what will be the cheapest tool i can get that is able to turn off the warning lights on an Audi A3 TFSI 2021. The headlight was replaced but now the error light keeps showing and so far all of the used scan tools where not able to turn off the error. Best Regards V
Why no mention of Launch? I use it and find it way better than my Autel 908pro. It does bidirectional and actuatiobs and coding and I only pay £100 a year for updates through a non franchised dealer.
Was interested in the Icarsoft CR Max, however trying to contact Diagnostic World is rather difficult, no phone number and don't reply to emails. Makes my worried if I get a problem of I got one.
iCarsoft advised the VAWS 3.0 will not work on Audi cars after 2022. Bought a unit, updated the firmware, contacted them. "we'll put it on our development list" (don't hold your breath).
Do you have to pay every year in order for this OBD reader to work ? If you dont pay does that still work ? Do you need to have internet to used it ? If you don't updates does that still work without updates ? Out from the box can you used it without wifi or internet ? Can this scan for Fuel Pressure ? And can this scan for compression test ? Is this a Complete diagnostic Scan tools ?does it Scan from 1996 cars going up ? How about Toyota Camry 2001 2.2 Liter 4 Cyl or Buick Park Ave 2003 3.8 Liter does it Scan these cars ? Does this scan for battery ignition parameters ? Does it Scan for a bad head gaskets ?
I need help on an affordable diagnostic tool to buy.. I am a budding car dealer, i just need one that can tell if the engine of a car is faulty before i pay..
What does it exactly means? I am a fuel injector technician Will need to access fuel learning and fuel adaptions Does mk808 autel Allows all german or asian vehicles to perform ?
Nice tools, but any chance you could do these demos on every day uk motors like a corsa, fiesta, peugeot, not sure many people buying cheap scan tool to fix there ferrari 😂
Very poor customer service, no contact number, no respond on email… if not helping I need money back. I got issues with pdf reports an email…. I just bought last week. I cant set up an email account it keeps giving me an error message of wrong username/password but i know 100% it is correct. And it wont allow me email the pdf reports until the email issue is fixed. How can this be resolved?
Hi there, bought a I car soft Porsche v2 in 2018 for my 2013 ,981 Porsche boxter s , on your recommendation,in 2020 I bought a top don scan tool as I have a couple of cars,recently had a convertiable roof problem on the boxter s. Neither of my 2 scan tools could diagnose the problem,so now which of these 4 scan tools ,is capable of this diagnosis ?.I am told only Porsche’s PWIS can help me out.looking forward to your reply.

For People that have Holden Commodores! The icarsoft only goes as far back as 2005 so people with older Holden commodores like myself (1994-97 VR Commodore) the scan tool is useless so do your research or talk to your local mechanic to buy a scanner that will read your old commodore.
great presentation. gives us what we need to know at each price point. I note from the purchse links that you might be an agent for iCarsoft? as a matter of amusement, I do like this modern term 'mileage correction' - sounds like what we called 'clocking' in the old days

Thank you for the video I am currently working on figuring out an EVAP leak somewhere and just purchased a new EVAP Smoke machine from Autoline Pro called the Ventus. But I have watched other videos that mention that you need to close the vent valve before testing. So not sure if finding a ScanTool that can control the vent valve to open or close it is considered a "Special Feature/Function/Option" or if the ability to do that is a standard option found in anything of these tools? Thank you again
@@edwinc201 Hello, Thank you for the question. The term that I learned that was called “bidirectional” this term means that the scandal has the ability to trigger sensors and solenoids throughout the car. So I purchased a TopDon ArtiDiag Pro for what I could afford and gave me what I needed. Plus I was also able to purchase from eBay a copy of TechStream and a special dongle for the OBD2 connection the exact software that the dealer uses to work on the car, so together I was able to find and repair the issue and now have now EVAP codes! I am very happy
I purchased the Xtool D8 several months ago, but just started to use it more and found while looking at freeze frame data from a 2013 Nissan Frontier, there are PIDs with data displayed that are named Option 1, Option 2 thru Option 8. Not sure what these PIDs are for so I contacted the Xtool help email and after an exhausting 4 days back and forth they say they are not sure to contact S4 Shop. This is really messed up when the Manufacturer dosent know about their own product. Buyer beware.
Maybe it's the vehicle not the tool ?? Curious. I'm brand new here bc of issues I can not afford to have dealer fix, either now or future, so trying to learn to hopefully to be a DIY er. as I was before electronics.
I'm returning my D7 today after I asked them a question and they said, sorry you bought it from a different seller, can't help you. It didn't even start with a hello, or thank you for buying our product. Rude. Atleast for me, they don't deserve a penny of my money.
Great in depth testing reviews. Question for you. Which scanner would support Volvo transmission shifting adaptation learning? I purchased the icarsoft CR Max but Volvo was not a vehicle make Option to choose from within the Service Tab? Can you recommend a scanner that has Volvo Transmission protocol. A scope feature would be an added benefit. Thanks and Cheers. Jack
We have several a few different brands of vehicles in our family I have an innova reader but I’m looking for a reader that will do everything and also to have another reader. I do not want a Autel because they charge for updates….
I purchased a iCarsoft FA v2.0 for resetting oil or reading codes on my 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvios (we have 2 Stelvios). I upgraded to latest firmware successfully but the iCarsoft FA 2.0 (Fiat Alfa Romeo) cannot see any of the Stelvios! When will Stelvio support be available so I can use this FA 2.0 scanner? Maybe on your marketing and sales videos/website you should spell out that the FA 2.0 (Fiat Alfa Romeo) cannot see the Stelvio models. Because the Stelvio is (by far) the most popular Alfa Romeo in the US and you are selling scanners here that do not work on it!
Do any of these support older (classic) cars? I'm specifically interested in a tool that is backward compatible with Volvo models from about 1995 to 2005, but hopefully is also forward compatible.
@@richardweinberger2756 I'm in the UK, and have unfortunately fallen foul of code scanners Thar promise to read our '99 year Volvos, but then either fail to read any codes, or simply fail to connect with the car. Both of the Volvos are OBDII equipped, and as yet have only ever given any info via a Snap-On Solus reader, but they're just a tad expensive for our needs, plus the subscription costs as well. Really, I'd like to be able to "try before I buy" anything of my own. I already have an Autel of some description or other, which doesn't recognise our Volvos, and have even borrowed one or two other readers, all to no avail. Sadly, I can't justify the cost of a Snap-On reader, otherwise that's what I'd go for.
What about Delphi?? ....i have one and i think is dam good ,all cars brand ,i have paid 40 bucks....has everything transmission , chassis, instruments, central locking, battery registration, live data , suspension...i can't remember all but is 💪.....but you need a laptop
hi. by far your videos are the most informative when choosing a scan tool. so thank you for that. can you help me a bit more though. i am looking for a scan tool that will do all the normal everyday scans and resets but i also need it to be able to recode things like a semi auto gearbox actuator robot on a renault trafic. i am getting anew recon unit and it will need codeing to the van. i have been advised that autel are good. i have emailed them but they have not got back to me. i am not a mechanic by trade, i restore classic cars and damaged cars so sometimes i have to turn off lights on the dash but i dont want to be paying a fortune for a scan tool. i was hoping to get the one i need for under £600 could you recomend some that will do the job i need it to do please. thank you john

Great stuff.
How about the Launch X431 and the Thinkcar Thinktool diferent models ?
Would be great to hear what you say about them.
No, Launch seem to have software errors and simply do not deliver the goods
Excellent Review! Thank you.
Maybe you can advise me what will be the cheapest tool i can get that is able to turn off the warning lights on an Audi A3 TFSI 2021.
The headlight was replaced but now the error light keeps showing and so far all of the used scan tools where not able to turn off the error.

Why no mention of Launch? I use it and find it way better than my Autel 908pro. It does bidirectional and actuatiobs and coding and I only pay £100 a year for updates through a non franchised dealer.

Hi is the xtool d7 better than yhe autel 608

how does these Android-tablet tools compare to software, like Delphi or Wurth WoW Snooper?
Hi, does the ICarsoft tools read Peugeot manufacturer codes?
yes
can replace vin no on abs module mercedes 2016? thanks
Is there one that can be used straight off, which does not need updating and upgrading and all that complications?
No they all need updating and registering before using
iCarsoft advised the VAWS 3.0 will not work on Audi cars after 2022. Bought a unit, updated the firmware, contacted them. "we'll put it on our development list" (don't hold your breath).
Do you have to pay every year in order for this OBD reader to work ? If you dont pay does that still work ? Do you need to have internet to used it ? If you don't updates does that still work without updates ? Out from the box can you used it without wifi or internet ? Can this scan for Fuel Pressure ? And can this scan for compression test ? Is this a Complete diagnostic Scan tools ?does it Scan from 1996 cars going up ? How about Toyota Camry 2001 2.2 Liter 4 Cyl or Buick Park Ave 2003 3.8 Liter does it Scan these cars ? Does this scan for battery ignition parameters ? Does it Scan for a bad head gaskets ?
I need help on an affordable diagnostic tool to buy.. I am a budding car dealer, i just need one that can tell if the engine of a car is faulty before i pay..
MK808 is confirmed to be bi-directional after latest firmware update
What does it exactly means?
I am a fuel injector technician
Will need to access fuel learning and fuel adaptions
Does mk808 autel Allows all german or asian vehicles to perform ?
@@shazebmohd71623.24 explains bi directional tests.
Nice tools, but any chance you could do these demos on every day uk motors like a corsa, fiesta, peugeot, not sure many people buying cheap scan tool to fix there ferrari 😂
My thoughts exactly. Can't see them lying on their backs in the pishing rain under their car, in their designer suits.
Google search "Bavarian Dominator - Review Centre".................... its the same guy!!
xtool has more cars but the feauters are limitted
autel has less vechical coverage but each model is specific
about which ones need subscription??
Very poor customer service, no contact number, no respond on email… if not helping I need money back. I got issues with pdf reports an email….

For People that have Holden Commodores!
The icarsoft only goes as far back as 2005 so people with older Holden commodores like myself (1994-97 VR Commodore) the scan tool is useless so do your research or talk to your local mechanic to buy a scanner that will read your old commodore.
what do you suggest Shotz?
you can get xtool a30m bluetooth dongle that has all abilities of that a7 yet only $200
nice video, thanks
i just bought the d7 on amazon for 400 dollars and i see you are saying it is 640 dollars? Confused
Can anyone recommend OBD2 scanner for the MG5 EV long range .
Great video Thanks.
Great video
I got the D7 for $325. If you only knew the future you would have chosen it...
great presentation. gives us what we need to know at each price point. I note from the purchse links that you might be an agent for iCarsoft?
as a matter of amusement, I do like this modern term 'mileage correction' - sounds like what we called 'clocking' in the old days
Tune into another youtube channel of his and discover how he has been found out lol Just type in

@cuthbert2340 when i found this guy on here i nearly bought an icarsoft from him but his website and videos screamed dodgy
I was under the impression that icarsoft had a limited number of cars.
The YT channel of ‘Car Care Nut’ has a better description of X-Tools Scanners.

Hello Mate... I've read that the iCarSoft units can't connect to VW. Many units don't but you infer here that these do. Can you please clarify if the scanners are able to be used with VW? Thankx
You need to buy the VAWS unit. But beware, the VAWS V3.0 does not work on cars after 2022.
Thank you for the video
I am currently working on figuring out an EVAP leak somewhere and just purchased a new EVAP Smoke machine from Autoline Pro called the Ventus. But I have watched other videos that mention that you need to close the vent valve before testing. So not sure if finding a ScanTool that can control the vent valve to open or close it is considered a "Special Feature/Function/Option" or if the ability to do that is a standard option found in anything of these tools? Thank you again
Did you ever find your answer?
@@edwinc201
Hello,
Thank you for the question. The term that I learned that was called “bidirectional” this term means that the scandal has the ability to trigger sensors and solenoids throughout the car. So I purchased a TopDon ArtiDiag Pro for what I could afford and gave me what I needed. Plus I was also able to purchase from eBay a copy of TechStream and a special dongle for the OBD2 connection the exact software that the dealer uses to work on the car, so together I was able to find and repair the issue and now have now EVAP codes! I am very happy
I purchased the Xtool D8 several months ago, but just started to use it more and found while looking at freeze frame data from a 2013 Nissan Frontier, there are PIDs with data displayed that are named Option 1, Option 2 thru Option 8. Not sure what these PIDs are for so I contacted the Xtool help email and after an exhausting 4 days back and forth they say they are not sure to contact S4 Shop. This is really messed up when the Manufacturer dosent know about their own product. Buyer beware.
Maybe it's the vehicle not the tool ?? Curious. I'm brand new here bc of issues I can not afford to have dealer fix, either now or future, so trying to learn to hopefully to be a DIY er. as I was before electronics.
I'm returning my D7 today after I asked them a question and they said, sorry you bought it from a different seller, can't help you. It didn't even start with a hello, or thank you for buying our product. Rude. Atleast for me, they don't deserve a penny of my money.
@Jazzydaze That's because you bought a fake one DUMMY 🤣🤣🤣
Will never buy any xtool products
@jasonpeter5140 Scotty Kilmer says they are one of the best scan tools money can buy. Lol
Great in depth testing reviews. Question for you. Which scanner would support Volvo transmission shifting adaptation learning? I purchased the icarsoft CR Max but Volvo was not a vehicle make
Option to choose from within the Service Tab? Can you recommend a scanner that has Volvo Transmission protocol. A scope feature would be an added benefit. Thanks and Cheers. Jack
I am also looking into Volvo hybrid and would like to know which would be the best bi directional diagnostic tool.
We have several a few different brands of vehicles in our family I have an innova reader but I’m looking for a reader that will do everything and also to have another reader.
I do not want a Autel because they charge for updates….
They all charge for updates

Helo, Do you have Conducting Training Autel to how to use it??
But which can clear a Nissan i-key system fault from changing the door handle?
I purchased a iCarsoft FA v2.0 for resetting oil or reading codes on my 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvios (we have 2 Stelvios).
I upgraded to latest firmware successfully but the iCarsoft FA 2.0 (Fiat Alfa Romeo) cannot see any of the Stelvios!
When will Stelvio support be available so I can use this FA 2.0 scanner?
Maybe on your marketing and sales videos/website you should spell out that the FA 2.0 (Fiat Alfa Romeo) cannot see the Stelvio models. Because the Stelvio is (by far) the most popular Alfa Romeo in the US and you are selling scanners here that do not work on it!
Contact iCARsofts support, they should be able to tell you.
Do any of these support older (classic) cars? I'm specifically interested in a tool that is backward compatible with Volvo models from about 1995 to 2005, but hopefully is also forward compatible.
I don't know where you live,, in the U.S. any car made after 1996 is an ODB2 system, which means that all of these will work on those Volvo's.
@@richardweinberger2756 I'm in the UK, and have unfortunately fallen foul of code scanners Thar promise to read our '99 year Volvos, but then either fail to read any codes, or simply fail to connect with the car. Both of the Volvos are OBDII equipped, and as yet have only ever given any info via a Snap-On Solus reader, but they're just a tad expensive for our needs, plus the subscription costs as well.
Really, I'd like to be able to "try before I buy" anything of my own. I already have an Autel of some description or other, which doesn't recognise our Volvos, and have even borrowed one or two other readers, all to no avail.
Sadly, I can't justify the cost of a Snap-On reader, otherwise that's what I'd go for.

Hi sir, order one if I can pay in installments because l have enough money.
hi. by far your videos are the most informative when choosing a scan tool. so thank you for that. can you help me a bit more though. i am looking for a scan tool that will do all the normal everyday scans and resets but i also need it to be able to recode things like a semi auto gearbox actuator robot on a renault trafic. i am getting anew recon unit and it will need codeing to the van. i have been advised that autel are good. i have emailed them but they have not got back to me. i am not a mechanic by trade, i restore classic cars and damaged cars so sometimes i have to turn off lights on the dash but i dont want to be paying a fortune for a scan tool. i was hoping to get the one i need for under £600 could you recomend some that will do the job i need it to do please.
thank you
