Thanks so much Scotty. At this time, the 2024 version is $105 on Launch's eBay store. I was just about to buy a different scan tool costing hundreds of dollars more. As a DIY person, it was paining me to put out that amount of money, so I sat on it for a few days with the item in my cart. Then your video popped up on my youtube recommendations. This is exactly what I am looking for. Features galore, even ones only available on expensive scan tools, with low cost. As a DIY person who will not use this tool much, I wouldn't mind the slowness. This tool will allow me to learn more about my car.

I had misfire problems with my Grand Prix this fall looked at hundreds of scanners on AMZN from 10$ to 250$. They all had 4.5+***** stars and tens of thousands of certified purchases! So I gave up and bought none, just way too many choices! My 10$ HF will have to suffice for codes, and borrowing from the parts store for more. Sorry! I really wish i had the time to find what i want and narrow it down. Nice review Scotty, but i still can't trust it, there's hundreds more all with great reviews too! (And what was with the whole ABS vs non-ABS scanner thing on AMZN? that's really confusing...)

I remember my dad did a deal with a company to test a new OBD2 scan tool while working. This was in 2009. He was told it was a $23k tool and to not attempt to fix it himself he probably used it 4 times and it was as slow as an old Hilux but it worked and was extremely accurate if the vehicle was made correctly And for it's time it was probably worth that but nowadays my dad has a tool that does the same thing hooked up to his dashboard 24/7 that he got for $80 and tells him his temperature, boost and air density outside the engine Edit: spelling
