1.0 out of 5 stars AutoXray EZ-Read 2000- Did not like it., June 8, 2006

You can get a code reader cheaper than this one. A lot of the functions on the unit like 'MON' and 'DATA' buttons require an upgrade for $99. The unit did not come with cable to link it to a computer to do the upgrade, you also have to purchase that.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected, January 18, 2007

This review is from: AutoXray EZ-Read 2000 Advanced Code Reader (Tools & Home Improvement)

This code reader performs well. I like the case and all the items supplied. What is lacking is information. Yes it reads and displays codes, but codes without explanation are of little value. I inquired by e-mail to the manufacturer about cost of code descriptions but the reply was lacking in explaining how to obtain same. The reply did note that the particular code I asked about was related to emission controls but that is too broad an explanation to isolate a problem. You can buy upgrades for the code reader but description of what you get is also vague, therefore anyone buying an upgrade would not know what they were getting.

On the plus side I was able to find code descriptions on the internet but it was not easy. Once I had the code I bought and replaced the defective part and the problem was solved. Calling a dealer and inquiring about the cost of replacing the same part revealed I saved over 50% of their price, and I included the cost of the reader. Therefore it was a true bargain, but without the code description would have been of little value.

1.0 out of 5 stars Big Disappointment, January 9, 2006

If you want just a code reader, you can get one for alot less money. I expected more out of this one (my mistake). When I contacted customer support and questioned the unusable 'MON' and 'DATA' buttons, their response was "buy the $99 upgrade".

I don't think so!!
