Absoloute must have for diagnosing and rectifying faults on Mercedes. This is bi-directional allowing 2 way data stream communication with the ECU and gives you virtually all dealer level access.

with practice and reading the manual a very useful tool ! make sure u download updates !

This is a brilliant bit of kit and has helped me out various times since my purchase. But my advice would be, don't fiddle too much with settings that you're unsure about. I managed to accidentally reset my DDE CAS, resulting in my car only turning over, but not firing. And I got an error code - EWS tampering. I managed to sort the error, by reverting to original values for the DDE CAS and then I was able to start the car again. But definitely be careful. Overall, I am very happy with this product. It really is great value for money, it's very easy to use and it is a nice size device. It is handy being so portable, as I just keep it stowed away in my car, so it's always close by, if I need it. There are a ton of free features on this device, there are even some special functions and it is a great buy!

The scanning tool just stopped working during BMW injectors coding procedure. I ordered another one and sent this one back. Hopefully it didn't damage the car's ECU as it aborted coding in the half way...

This was bought to reprogram the electric windows on a 2008 Mini Cooper S which annually would lose its window settings when the weather goes cold and frosty and the windows freeze up and can't move. Go to open the door, the glass can't drop even though the motor tries and wham! the memory is lost. One touch no longer works, closing the window is almost impossible as it gets to the top then drops back down. Specialist BMW garage charges £100 each time to reprogram. This tool has the feature to reprogram them, and it works, first time. Took me 20 minutes to find it in the menus though..... Looks like the tool does heaps and heaps more as well. Easy to use, clear menus, touch screen too. Good value for money, has pretty much paid for itself on first use. I updated the software over the air, simply plugged a USB C charger into it the first time I powered it up, connected to wifi and followed the prompts, very easy.

Having used this for some time now I have to say I am impressed with its abilities and options. Although I bought it primarily for a particular Marque, you can also load it up with software for other makes at very reasonable rates per annum. This little unit has saved me a great deal of money as it has directed my repair efforts in the right direction thereby saving me no small sum which I would otherwise have lost to repair garages. A must have in the tool arsenal.

well its a bit of a scam really has you have to pay extra for each reset function so write up is miss leading so buyer be aware there are other units that do it all for a lil extra cost better in the long run
