I found this site on AARP website, seems to be an affordable tool, easy to use. Will be ordering one this week, so will update the post later on. CarMD Earns Coveted CES Innovations Award Mobile Technology Device Helps Drivers Identify “Check Engine†Problems and More www.CarMD.com
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(hwalker911 @ Jun 6 2007, 07:53 PM) [snapback]456990[/snapback]</div> Pros This device is cheaper than a ScanGauge2 by something less than $70. (I couldn't find the S&H charge). Cons This device runs on disposible batteries. The SG2 provides missing instrumentation in addition to checking for and clearing codes. This device can only be used on a limited number of vehicles. The additional tech support is limited. This device strikes me as a 1 trick pony dumbed down SG2. It will be interesting to read the opinions of the technically inclined.
Hi I m new here from U.S.A ca somebody can tell me which scann tool is best for reading codes in mu 2007 prius 120.000 mile on it so far the car is great . went to the dealer twice for reading codes that i cannot read with a regular tool from atozone or any of those places . Anyone can give some info . Thank you very much.
JimN, one more thing. The SGII gets a lot of Prius user support on Prius chat. Miscellaneous readers don't.
The MD unit costs $120. For $160 at the Prius Chat shop. For the extra $40 the X-Gauge option is well worth it. The CarMD is for cars that are non Hybrid!
