wp-admin

I am using Autel Maxisys Pro MS908P more than half year, it can do what I paid, it works fine in my workshop. Comes with everything in the packing list, use it for scanning of ABS , Air bag , engine , and everything the car can communication with, all the good working.

10-1

AUTEL MAXISYS Pro itself has already supported ECU programming function for BENZ and BMW cars, if you need to get support for more car models, you must use J2534 device along with OEM software to implement this function. J2534 DEVICE can not only use with AUTEL MAXISYS Pro , but also can work on other OEM software.

10-2

Using additional OEM software, the MaxiFlash Pro can be used as a Pass-Thru diagnostics tool as well, which allows users to read and clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and data log PIDS, collect sensor data and log generic OBDII data etc.

Here is some customer Reviews for Autel MaxiSys Pro M908P :
By Dave.J on May 20.2017
Let me just say I had no problem registering this online at Autel and I took serial number and password right from the machines screen as they show online. After I registered I also installed the CD that was supplied I did that no issues. Then I bought a 32GB sd card (Ultra) not that it matters but that’s the max, I clicked install all updates on the card and boom all went on. Then I took the card out of the machine the 8GB supplied and updated that as a back up. I’m also gonna order one more 32GB to keep in the safe. No issues at all my serial number had a Q in it which is the USA one. My wifi works good as well.

By Juan H on October 21.2016
I owe many scanner , The Autel MS908P has give me the capabliety to scan more vehicles , look at more features. I very happy with the pruchase. I would recommend this scanner to anyone, affordable.has done wonder for my shop.

By Pen Ne on June 17.2016
Best bang for your buck hands down, I’m a master technician with ten years experience as a professional tech. For the money this scanner does more than any of its competitors for a fraction of the price. It puts my snap on scanner to shame! Does almost every make and model I program keys with it, reset adaption and service lights, look at live data , run tests, etc can’t go wrong

By ARamada on February 10.2016
We have a small used car dealership and Autel MaxiSys Pro has been more than sufficient, pulling codes from different modules, the live data and the ability to communicate with nearly any make/model. If there is one complaint, it’s that it doesn’t have an internal battery so it always has to be plugged in, can’t walk around with it with it on. The updates are constantly coming in which is another plus. It could use a little tuning, some words are misspelled but otherwise its been working fine.

By Texas cowboy on July 2015
I am still learning all the ins and outs of this piece of equipment, but I couldn’t do my job without it. It is awesome! I concur with the warnings of others – be sure you order one that is not from China so that you can receive updates.

How to use an OBD 2 Scan step by step

wp-admin

Hi I’m Neal; lots of folks are complaining nowadays that cars are no more than computers on wheels. The benefit though is that you can tap in on all the Diagnostic Tools for Trucks that was never available before. Since 1996, all cars are somewhat OBD 2 that stands for on board diagnostics. It is a standardized gateway into your car’s computer.

OBD Scan tool

In order to get to that information, you are going to need a reader t like this that scans all the data that is in your computer. It used to be really expensive but they have come down in price and pretty easy to use, we will show you.

First step into getting into the computer is to plug it into the port under the dash, most of the times you will find it into right where your knees are. This one is hidden pretty deep, so plug it in. following this one up. You press the button like this. This one is externally powered not all of them are. Most of them run on the vehicle power so you have to switch it on.

Plug the OBD Scan into port under the dash

This one I can configure to get the manufacturer’s codes as well, which are a little different from the standard OBD codes. At this point, in order to update our computer, we will put the vehicle on, so I will do that. The check engine light on this car is on so we are going to scan the car to find what the problem is.

Press scan here follow the directions on the screen and now it’s talking. It is a pretty easy process; you only wait for the computer to do its work. Now it’s talking to us, it’s telling us what’s wrong.  The scan is really successful and we are going to figure out everything right now.

All these scanners are different, this one is a little bit complicated than any normal, but it has got a variety of selections here on its main menu. We are going to get the trouble codes. So go down and get to select frame number 3 and get the trouble codes. It tells us that we have got exhaust gas re-circulation flow insufficient.

The system is too lean what that means is that oxygen sensors and the engine are reading too lean. It is the same with the other side of the engine. So that tells us we have got a little bit of an issue with the way the way the fuel system is detecting or the way that it is working.

So generally, all these codes have the same meanings across all brands, but if you have to get a good read of what is going on with your car, it’s probably best these days to take these codes along with your make and model and actually do internet research. It will put you in the right direction. Really that is the best thing that these pulling codes can do for you.

tips

Whenever you pull the codes like the oxygen sensor is failing. Don’t just throw an oxygen sensor out. It might be apart upstream, it might be parts totally unrelated to that; it takes a little bit of detective work to test it.

These used to be widely expensive but they have come down in price a lot. You can actually go and rent them out at your parts store.  But they are so simple and easy to use that everybody should probably get a little bit familiar with them to use for your car scan.

Customized scan tools like this one used to be the only way to do this job. Now they make Apps for it. This is really cool; it’s a cable that plugs into your cars computer into your phone. So just like with the scanner, you plug it into your OBD 2 port then plug this into your phone, now you can launch the car diagnostic software.

Once you get your phone hooked up, you can clear the lights, and you can check what is wrong with your car. Let’s say that you have something silly like the gasket is loose. Just through a code. You can find it here, go fix it, clear the code in here and then turn on the engine light, and then you will be back on the road with this simple fix.

tips2

The thing you can’t do, those who live in emission regulated states is just clear the codes and go through the test as if it is just a cheap pie. We all know that it will get faster. So the cool thing with the Smartphone system is that it can’t mess up the car.

It can’t mess up the car with an opening a Bluetooth, it will just read the codes. You can do all kinds of powerful stuff, you can log data, and you can watch standing performances as this is going or have a Bluetooth download. So you can always have this thing one step of the car.

This is the way it should go. Are you having any questions about this job, leave a comment at the comments in this article or contact me.

The overall ways to keep the cost of car ownership low

wp-admin

The total money that you spend on car insurance, maintenance, repair and vehicle ownership in its service lifetime is not less than that you hand to the car dealership at its purchase, and these expenses continue to rise. Take fuel as an example, its price reached record high in 2008 and best obd2 scanner foretell a possible continuing rise in the future. More and more people find it hard to sustain their car ownerships. However, there’s always something called solution. Below are some simple and easy ways that everyone can have a try to reduce costs with one’s car.

* Get slick to reduce maintenance costs and to save fuel.

Upgrading to one of today’s modern high performance motor oils can make a meaningful improvement to your car’s fuel economy and engine life. For instance, independent studies have documented that Royal Purple motor oil improves fuel economy by as much as 5 percent and significantly reduces engine wear. Using high performance synthetic motor oil, as opposed to conventional oils also allows for more miles between oil changes, reducing maintenance costs and the amount of time spent on maintenance. You’ll pay a little more for premium motor oil but the savings in fuel and reduced maintenance costs more than make up for the higher price.

* Reduce your insurance costs by doing your homework.

One of the simplest ways to reduce insurance cost is simply to shop around. Prices vary from company to company, so it pays to do your homework. Get at least three price quotes. You can call companies directly or access information on the Internet. Your state’s insurance regulator may also provide price comparisons. Other ways to reduce insurance costs can be found by visiting the U.S. Insurance Information Institute’s Web site.

* Mind the air to save money on fuel.

The U.S. Energy Department reports that under-inflated tires can increase fuel consumption by up to 3 percent. One Benz diagnostic tool  estimates that 50 to 80 percent of the tires rolling on U.S. roads are under inflated. Astonishingly, we could save up to 2 billion gallons of gas each year simply by properly inflating our tires.

Secondly, a clogged air filter can increase fuel consumption by as much as 10 percent. Air filters keep impurities from damaging the interior of the engine, so replacing dirty filters will save gas and protect your engine.

Auto Scanner Tools can save hundreds of dollars a year on automotive expenses without buying a new car or changing lifestyle. All it takes is a little time and research, and the good sense to choose better performing products.
