Having a 'cheap' scanner to faff around with is one thing, but investing in 'decent' professional diagnostic equipment (and the expertise/training to use it) is another thing. My advice, find a good 'man' and let him invest in buying the gear. Just my opinion, others will follow.....? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Casper 272 Posted November 14, 2019 As the other have said I use a basic code reader for the basic and I use a garage that uses specialist diagnostics for the more detailed stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
