Review: Great scanner, very intuitive - This scanner works really well. The user interface was really straightforward. We were able to easily run a diagnostic on the car and confirm that no warnings or issues were found. Once we had verified the car had no issues, we were able to clear our Audi Q5e annual inspection due reminder with peace of mind. Simple to use (we didn't need to download a separate phone app to use it like some other scanners) and worth the money.
Review: Sees and clears airbag codes - My battery died. Jumping my 2017 Jetta caused all sorts of dash light warnings to pop up. After replacing the battery, all went away except the check airbag warning. I tried to clear it with another scanner but it couldn’t see the code. I searched YouTube and forums for a manual procedure and found nothing. My normal mechanic told me to take my Jetta to the Dealer. Dealer quoted me $250 to diagnose the warning light. I am cheap and took a risk and bought this scanner to try to save money. Luckily the scanner saw the code and cleared it. It was easy to figure out and use. Took 2 minutes to clear the code. Fun fact: Mechanics and Car Parts stores will tell you to go to a dealer because they don’t know your car and don’t want to get sued if you crash and the airbag doesn’t go off. Don’t believe the hype on the internet. You can clear it. This scanner can see it in the 2017 Jetta

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to use!
*by K***W on August 5, 2024*

I purchased this device mainly for replacing my brake pads on my VW-Arteon,( front & rear ), and as many other newer models, my car has a electric parking brake which I needed to retract with a device like this. When I got the device delivered I was surprised from the quality and the feeling when I pulled it out of the box, given that this brand wasn’t so famous to me, but could be something famous in Europe, I don’t know 🤷. It’s made in China, though as most of the things nowadays, but so far is of a good quality, and worked perfectly for me! I was able to retract the electric parking brake ( the metal axle inside the pistons ), so later when you need to press the pistons and to install the new brake pads, nothing stays on your way and it was easy and like you don’t have electric parking brake to deal with it. Now something important to remember when you use the device for the first time? So when you use the device for the first time , make sure and put the car in contact first ( the ignition ON ), then plug it in while the ignition is still on “ON” position without starting the engine. I did it in reverse, I plugged in the device first, then I pressed the ignition button on, and the device didn’t show and didn’t want to do anything, and I was scared and thought that the device it doesn’t work on my car, so again, ignition ON fits, then plug in the device, and it will work perfectly. I highly recommend the product, especially at the discounted price that I got it in Amazon!
