3.0 out of 5 stars Good for reading generic codes only, June 14, 2008

This review is from: AutoXray 700 CodeScout (Misc.)

Another reviewer said the dealer found 8 DTC codes but the CodeScout only showed 2. The MFR's website description (http://www.autoxray.com/product_detail.php?pid=92) says the CodeScout (only) reads and displays generic DTCs (not manufacturer specific DTC's). It will however erase both generic and manufacturer specific DTC's. So if you want to read custom DTC's for you make/model, you'll need the AutoXray 1500 instead of the 700 (and pay 2x the price).

This has come in very handy. I recommend it for anyone who has a car that has a check engine light that comes on. We had our car at the dealer and he told us the car showed 8 codes and needed approximately $800 worth of parts and labor. I bought the AutoXray CodeScout and checked the car myself and came up with 2 codes one being related to the O2 Sensor. I bought the sensor for $60 and had a mechanic friend install it and then I reset the check engine light with my AutoXray CodeScout. The check engine light has not come on again and the car passed the emissions test with flying colors. So far I have saved almost $700 and I have loaned it to friends too who have also saved money.

This review is from: AutoXray 700 CodeScout (Misc.)

I live in an emissions testing state (Georgia) and annually battle mysterious check engine lights on our two cars to pass the test. I bought the code reader because I wanted to stop paying ridiculous amounts of money to have others chase down minor problems. The reader is super easy to use, and after two months has helped me (who knows little about cars) self-diagnose and correct issues with both cars. Also, being able to erase pesky codes that remain after being fixed is a big plus.
