Pros

Even if not a diy’er, it empowers you when you visit your auto shop. This one is adequate, useable and doesn't give any sub-standard feel.

These scanners read the codes thrown by your car when something is amiss. The scanner case is robust and durable.

This one works as well as other units costing two times or more money. It works nicely and fine but not with 2006 ml350 benz. Works fine with all 4 cars at my house - a honda and a bmw.

The manual booklet has some ranges -- 11. To 11. Volts. The unit also lets you know the voltage of the battery. It allows you to graph 4 different sensors at once.

Of course the seller responded quickly a long time ago and followed up twice afterwards but i was too busy to take action.

Packaging/appearance

    As a diyer i expected the same performance from the astroai scaner as ive seen with others that ive borrowed


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    With the astroai enhanced obd2 scanner theres more than meets the eye


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Some options were not available to me because my vehicles are too old and i couldnt take advantage of the graphical displays but i could at least collect a datastream while driving or parked


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its updating process requires keyhold combinations while plugging it into the usb cable to start which is just so dos or windows 3


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    A columnar format is preferred in my opinion and more suitable for spreadsheet analysis

    So in summary for a convenient but powerful tool the astroai enhanced obd2 scanner is pretty slick
