AutelMaxiAP AP200 OBD2 Scanner Bluetooth Adapter with All System Diagnoses 19 Special Functions AutoVin (Bluetooth Edition of MaxiCom MK808)

it is slowish to connect initially..but once registered ,which you have to , it works really well and I was surprised how many functions it can monitor and all for just over £50

This shows more than any other obd I've used, it also reads and clears a lot more codes.

Short story: see the title.Long strory:I have recently bought a KIA XCeed (2021 reg) and wanted to get a good diagnostic tool to keep on top of any faults that might appear in the future. This Autel product promised a comprehensive set of features and had good reviews, so I decided to give it a go.After receiving the product, I connected it up and downloaded the MaxiAP200 app to my Android phone. Everything seemed fine until I was prompted to also install an additional Diag-Asia app that was meant to unlock support for my vehicle. Why do I need 2 separate apps to perform car diagnostics? It seemed silly, but I went along with it.After running the Diag-Asia app and selecting "Eobd" diagnostics option, the app would complain that the main MaxiAP200 was not installed on my phone. What an absurd, as I just installed it moments ago! I tried a various things to make it work but, in the end, I could not convince Diag-Asia otherwise.I then tried running KIA diagnostics via the main MaxialAP200 app, and it started by attempting to identify my car via the VIN. While the device was able to automatically retrieve a correct VIN, the app would complain that it could not decode it. I checked the number for invalid/wrong characters, and everything was correct. Still, the app simply would not have it. I then tried to manually select my KIA from an in-app list of models, but the XCeed was not amongst them. Finally, I tried choosing from several available models (e.g., Ceed, Sportage, etc.) just to see what happens next. To my amusement, I could then proceed to select a vehicle produced only in 2019 or older.Then it clicked. The main MaxialAP200 is distributed on Play Store by an entity called "autel2019". This, together with everything mentioned above, points to the fact that the diagnostics kit does not support any vehicle manufactured after 2019! The seller (perhaps intentionally) does not mention this in the product description, but sadly, it appears to be true. Trying to update both apps in an attempt to get the "latest database" did not help as I installed the newest versions from the get-go.Very dissapointing. I will be returning the item tomorrow.

All the information you need for DIY repairs. I needed renault, it lets you explore and read every single ecu for errors and live data etc. Just a bit of a bummer, you get one free manufacturer and have to pay for any additional ones. Very user friendly.

I bought this to recode a fuel injector and it works perfectly. I recently used this to help diagnose my car and it helps find the fault a-lot easier and is more cost effective when coming to fix the car as you know what the issue is without having to strip parts down

A good product to have in the carIt performs well and small and portableEasy to connect and will erase engine management faultsThe fault will come back if the component is faulty or not changedBut it certainly points you in the right direction

Set my BCM when I put a new battery on.

Autel is a great brand, and this does have many positive reviews, but please check your car is supported before buying.I have a 2020 Land Rover Discovery and it wasn't supported.I did also have trouble removing it from my OBD port, and read that few others have had the same issue. Persistent tugging managed to get it dislodged!Returning it was simple enough though.
