Autel MaxiScan MS300 CAN Diagnostic Scan Tool for OBDII Vehicles

I bought this to investigate the occasional engine light codes on our family's two cars ('99 BMW 323i and 2005 Toyota Corolla). Considering I've used it about a half dozen times so far, it's already paid for itself and then some. All of the problems so far have been simple and easy to fix myself- loose gas cap, dirty MAF sensor, bad spark plugs, etc. I would have paid thousands of dollars for a mechanic to diagnose and repair these problems if I didn't have this reader. I've also used this on my friends' 2004 Accord and '98 Protege, again saving them hundreds of dollars. This is the secret auto mechanics don't want you to know. The $100 they are charging you to "read" or "diagnose" your engine light literally involves 5 minutes of labor and an OBD reader that is fundamentally no different than this one. They would like to keep everyone in thedark and pay their exorbitant fees, but fortunately you don't have to be a victim. Even if you never own a single wrench, this is actually the best investment you can possibly make to keep your vehicle and can save you hundreds, in any other case thousands, of dollars in labor charges alone.
