i bought this for my friend 3 years ago who has 3 kids and the cars do go with it. So far it has worked out well for him as far as i know.
Man I am your new friend I need one too
The first video I’ve seen that actually shows how to use it!! I was already pretty sure I was going with one of the mid to higher range Autel models, but this helps make the decision easier.
Thanks for your time and knowledge!!
I've used one of these. The cheaper option imho being the non Bluetooth is a good deal because they got much cheaper when the bt model came out
I was about to buy a snap on scanner, and then I came across the mk808bt. Said screw you to the expensive snap on scanner with crazy expensive constant updates, and purchased the autel. Extremely happy with my choice
Wait till you need that updated,GOOD LUCK
Do you know if this unit can reprogram turbo actuators like on a 6.7 Cummins?
Those updates contain vital information for sure track and intelligent diagnostics, two things that autel doesn’t even have.
You do know you will have to pay for updates with the Autel as well right? Also it does not do everything the Snap On scanners will do.
The last shop I worked at bought one of these.... It ran circles around any Snap-On we had!! Much easier to use, faster, more cars supported, Bluetooth dongle connection, scope input adapter, J2534 programming,...
Buying this eliminated about 8 other tools we use to use! I WANT ONE!!!! I HIGHLY recommend this scan tool!
How long have you worked for this company? Your style of praising is very glaring. 40 year snap on using MECHANIC here, you are full of 4hit.
@@fredheaven3730 But he's not.. I as well have a Maxi sys Elite and it shits on the Zeus..
This is the tablet we use at Votech I love it so much and we do have access to snap on ones but I do enjoy this one it’s easy to use
As a highly certified technician I must say I wish I started Aultel. I started with a basic snap on scanner and upgraded every 3 years because it was cheaper than just buying the update. I have used both tools. Snap on is faster in my opinion and the oscilloscope on the snap on modis is also faster. That said, I use oscilloscope a hand full of times a year. Aultel is better priced, covers more vehicles for scans without an expensive upgrade that costs a thousand plus a year to keep up to date. Smh... I spent to much on the wrong tool
I Use autel, snap on and Bosch kts daily, they all do stuff that each other doesn’t but the autel does way more than either the other 2 can do and is way faster.
Also doesn’t crash like the snap on does!
can the autel clear/reset transmission fluid change message on a 2014 captiva?
I use Jaltest, work for several type of diesel equipment, also used for some stationary engines. it has worked quite well for me. www.cojaliusa.com/products/jaltest-commercial-vehicles/
Factual comment.
A great independent shop has multiple flagship tools. They all do things the other won't. Autel seems to do more faster for way less money. It's the tool I would buy for myself.
My Zeus NEVER crashes
I have it and it's great. I spent half of whst the other guys spent and it does everything if not more than the snapon
Hi there. How does it compare to the Matco Maximus 3.0? Thanks.
This is a great scanner. No doubt. But the Bosch scanner is $3k and comes with a fast processor and amazing customer support. It's also oem recognized which means Bosch will get specific updates from ford for example if needed. Its a lot more but most parts stores will finance on commercial accounts. Best move I ever made.
Eric o of s.m, a, up in main has all the good diagnostic tools ,the one you got is very good,snap on is a bit expensive for what you get ,it leaves the door open for other company’s to offer better and cheaper scan tools ,lift your game snap on or you will be left behind, thanks for the video mate
Ford does offer what they call "police dark mode" which disables the interior lights as well as the outside courtesy lamps in each side-view mirror. Presumably to provide extra security for an officer to maintain his or her night vision, and not be outlined by their own vehicle upon opening the doo
I have had it for 2 years. Tried snap on before. Autel is clean and sweet. Only they want loads for the top end models. Im looking at TEXA now.
They all say they do everything. I have Autel/SO/ Texa…It really depends what you have.
@@David-mc8zy autel are turds. Lie on a grand scale and just dont care. Programs not finished they still upload into the tool. Thinking they are doing you a favour when you get using it. Then find you reach end of it without your job being completed but getting a device unable to communicate with ecm screen. Full of lies autel should be renamed. Awfel
We have one of these at our shop and I agree that you can do a ton with it, even the TPMS stuff. Our only complaint is that it's slow and navigating it can feel like you're stuck in a maze. I'm personally use to the snap-on scanner from my last shop and recently bought one. IMHO snap-on did a good job simplifying your vehicles options so they're easy to get to and saves time. I ended up paying twice what the Autel is going for though, so there's that.
YUP but you get what you pay for, like insanely good customer service and one on one help almost 24/7 365 days a year. It's much more than just buying a tool. My reps literally given me tools before to do a job, name 1 other tool makers who'll do that! Mac Tools won't..
@@dieseldabz7104 My Snap-on reps come around like it's my job to keep them in business. With the way business fluctuates at my shop, I can't always afford to buy from them on a weekly basis. The quality is there for sure, but I wait for promos or until I really need a tool before buying off the truck. Its unfortunate but understandable, the service you receive depends on how much/how often you spend with them.
Back to the scan tool. Keep in mind that you may have to pay for updates to be able to use it on newer cars and to use continue using many of its selling features. My Solus Legend is due for the latest update at $450+ or monthly subscription of about $75.
@@airs2k Snap-On updates scanners twice a year. You can either pay for each update or get a subscription that includes the updates and access to SureTrack, RealFix, etc. I bought my Solus Legend scanner 2 years ago on promotion for $2,400 and traded it back to them for $2,500 towards a Triton D-10 that includes a lab scope. So I definitely didn't lose money on my first scanner, and it was great, I just out grew it.
Dark mode turns off the interior light when doors are open and disables the parking lights from flashing when you lock it. It does not have anything to do with taillights.
I have the FCar scanner and it’s great. I haven’t found a vehicle in won’t read including Isuzu UD Hino Cat Cummins mercedes bmw etc
What model you have?
My Snap-On does those
so i am a lube tech and i do a lot of the newer cars that have the built in e brake onto the calipers was looking to see if you knew of a scanner that would have a live data feature, freeze frame and the abilty to command things that is at a dececnt price compared to the snap on scanners..
Great review on the scanning tool ... good to see you recently at Clark’s workshop with Abomb79 and the gang ..🇬🇧🇬🇧
Just bought one not too impressed pretty slow sometimes seems cool but over hyped it seems balance test and injectors cut out test seem so so. Kind of hard to navigate
We put a nice long piece of red tape on the scanner dongle, so it wouldn’t drive away. Not that it would ever happen in our shop. :/
🌈👹👺☠️
I bough the Autel 906 instead to save a couple hundred dollars. It is the same but is tethered to the car, no blue tooth. In hindsight the BT version would have been worth the extra. There are many times you want the tool with you under the car or hood so you can do bidirectional tests and be there to watch the results.
These are incredible scan tools. Probably better than Snap-On for euro. I believe the only difference between this one and their more expensive Elite model is the programming J box.
Get an OBD ll extension cable
Thanks for the review of the scan tool.
I’ve never used snap-on, for anything, and I’m totally happy 😊
What do you use Harbor Freight? Being a shop owner it's all about convenience snap-on comes to me. I don't have to make time and go to Harbor Freight. But don't get me wrong great place and I do stock up on things for the business.
I have a 2000 dodge 5.9L 3/4 ton. Majority of techs have no clue how to troubleshoot digital. All they know how to do is replace parts until it's fixed. The worse ones are the mfg shops. They only want to work on the new ones, because those failures normally don't exist. Mostly parts changers that is all.
I would think snap-on would love to have people see this. I'd rather stick with my snap-on verus because it has a 4-channel oscilloscope. Which can be used to test things like, Cam and crank sensors, fuel injectors, ignition coils, and many other sensors that require a minimum of two channels for proper testing and analysis. Also snap-on has other adapters you can get like a primary and secondary ignition pickup leads, an amp clamp, pressure and vacuum transducers, also the amount of waveforms that can be brought up at the same time that No other scanner can do. Also do your homework on how often the scanner has to be updated, because most cars that are new usually go back to the dealer to be fixed, due to warranties. There are diagnosticians out there that do own the high-end snap-on scanners and can diagnosed any problem with your car for probably about $100.00, like myself
Keep justifying your purchase
My Verus Pro helped me confirm that my PCM needed to be replaced. I used the Oscilloscope and back probed the signal wire coming from the Bank (2) Cam Shaft Sensor. The DTC indicated that the PCM could not detect the Sensor Signal. I saw a normal sign wave signal. This confirmed that the P0345 Code was valid. I installed a new PCM and the Lincoln Mark LT runs great know.
@@locluke979 you are a Snap On hater, you have made that clear, now run along to Harbor Freight and buy your next cheap tool and pretend you have beaten the system.
Know why I like Snap-On? If I ever have a problem, the guy I bought it from comes by my shop once a week. How fun is it when your Autel isn't working correctly?
He just stops at your shop to make sure you make your payment. Lol
Autel support is about nonexistent
You throw it away and buy a new one. You need to at least get 6 before snap on is cheaper
I was looking to get the 908 version which is the step above this one but honestly i think im leaning towards this one because it can do everything the 908 can with the only exception being the ecu programming (which i don't see myself having a need to do, ever). As far as i know ecu coding is probably the most your ever going to need a scanner to do and this tool does it. If anyone knows why the 908 is worth the extra money let me know. Thanks for the video.
'Dark Car' disables the interior lighting when the doors are opened....so the officer inside is not silhouetted.
Cars have a switch for that inside too loo
@@TEMPLE7D They do? One that disables all of the door switches, internal switches, etc.? On basic model CVs? Hmm...I didn't know that.
Hello my thanks for sharing keep up the great work bless . all the time
But Stephen, do you buy your scan tools or are they given to you?
FREE AND PAID TO PROMOTE THIS COMPANY
Eh, for fords ill settle with a 30$ adaptor and free forscan.. once you learn how the asbuilt data is encrypted then u can do everything with some saved code templates and also do all your oscilloscope stuff and triggering.. even do the key codes and lockouts, unbrick an ecu without the damn dealership.. all i need,.
agreed but not on some 2018 and up fords. you'll need fdrs for those
Yes, absolutely! And you don't need a real pussy to fck with. The right hand will do the same!
Works great I use it on European and exotic. Only scanner I have that successfully reads Rolls Royce Lamborghini Ferrari and Bentley, some bidirectional functionality isn’t there for them but almost all the date necessary every time, lacks Ferrari 488 GTB and pre 2005 Lamborghini has trouble
I own that! Love it!!
Hi can you tell me who much they charge annually for software update?
From what I recall, the police mode made the car completely dark, with only headlights operating, and no brake lights. The headlights could be turned off by the switch and turned on by the switch, and the light bar and spot lights are separate, but this is on Crown Vics, Impalas, Tahoes back in the early 2000s. Probably by now they have all that from the factory, lights and sirens in the wiring harness.
For a p7b just for engine load tests and to check for canbuss failures what would you use
@@kylemartinez3008 Never worked on the newer interceptors. Honestly, Im just learned the newer electronic stuff. Hell, the 2004 Crown Vic I have will run fine without the ECU operating. Sure, gauges and CEL etc will go nuts but it will drive. So, not sure. I recently bought a Snap On Zeus, with the Guided Component Repair...because its a very good teaching tool for a ludite like me. To give you an idea, I have one project where I want to swap out the computerized LFX engine from a Camaro, and put a carbureted, no ECU crate in it. The biggest issue are the windows (which I may just go with crank windows lol) and gauge cluster. But yeah, sorry I wasnt able to really help. Im pretty sure that the newer stuff as far as diag computers can do these things (hoping? lol)
I had one. In general it was good. Couldn’t recommend a tool with a better value for a home mechanic at about $1600. Got tired of Autel support so I went back to snap on Zeus for my shop.
Do you have to buy tokens
@@briannaalexander8220 you do it directly on the scan tool. They connect to WiFi
Smart man
@@briannaalexander8220 NOPE
What was wrong with autel support compared to snap on that you went back to snapon?
These Autel's are great units...I have a 906CV ....does OBD automotive through Class 8 heavy diesel...only bummer is,it doesn't work with CAT offroad😔
I need to upgrade mine. I have a Snap on Solus Edge that doesnt have that many functions like the Autel you just reviewed
@@vuhuynh702 nope
@@dieseldabz7104 why?
Can it do transmission relearn?
That was pretty damn good
Have you ever done the complete ford brake bleed process //hope you have a gal. or 2 of fluid on hand... love the scanner....
Police mode- sometimes you want to roll into a scene with the headlights out, or sit and watch something. It keeps the dash lights from going to daytime brightness when the lights are shut off
Jeff how ironic
Always has to be one of those "They dont want you to know about this"! B.S.
Cool story, I’ll keep my Snap-On solus.
How much we have to pay every years for updates. This system
this guy didn't pay for this tool to do a review he got it for free or a hell of a deal on it
Quick FYI: The EL just means Extended Length (Lincoln is just "L") and has nothing to do with trim level. Trim level of your father in-laws is Limited, below that is Eddie Bauer, then XLT. There's also a King Ranch trim. Ford later eliminated The EB & added Platinum. All trim levels are available on EL & standard length alike.
I loved those EL models. It made the Expys look better than the standard wheelbase model.
@@blasianboomboom2006 I absolutely love my Limited EL or would that be EL Limited?🤔 I've had a 1st Gen XLT & 2nd Gen EB & now 3rd Gen Limited EL. It's the best car I've ever owned. Comfortable, looks good, practical It's everything I would want in a vehicle but around town gas mileage sucks. Personally, I think it's a bit underpowered. A larger engine would probably work less at pushing its 6,100lbs. Now the newer ones have gone with small V6's that have more hp but work harder via twin turbos. Longevity is still to be determined. The 4.6/5.4 has been around for a very long time, police & fleet vehicles with them top 300K & higher with ease. I'm afraid to buy a newer one with the V6 EcoBoost.
Any decent technician will have more than one diagnostic tool. Snap on has the benefit of a oscilloscope which will confirm a fault part instead of just reading codes.
Well the only problem I see is everybody saying it's too slow guess what.
time is on my side
oh yes it is. Thanks again
Must be nice to have a good scan tool. O wait on my obd1 all I have to do is cross a plug and count flashes and bam no tool needed.
Times were simple back then
I'am Your Newest Subscriber Great Videos
I need to borrow that lift you have with the garage
This tool is the entry level and very basic but good for beginners
Love my autel 906. I hated that bt version . prefer the call and love the $499 yearly subscriptions if you get it straight from autel. Dont bother with snap on or matco
Ya ok
If you get the scanner from MAC and keep updating it every year the scan tool keeps warranty goin as long as you don’t forget to update it
Talk to a MAC dealer in your area
1:56 why do we need so many adapters when OBD-II has been around since 1996? I know some non-NA cars took a while to comply, but that was almost two decades ago.
Like the 906bt. What chip/tuner would you recommend for 2002 f250 7.3. I'm towing about 13,500 lb with trailer and Track hoe. Bone stock with 63000 miles on it.
With the advent of secure gateway now being used by Chrysler and all other manufacturers ready to follow suit. It was said at the Matco show in Orlando last week by the Launch tech guys that autel will no longer be granted access along with many other brands through auto authority starting this fall. I hope that is not true. That then makes these tools "read only" devices. No special functions. No code clearing or relearn capabilities. May be true. May not but would hate to spend money on the tool then find out 2018 and up it's a paperweight. Already had to register my shops scanners with auto auth to allow access to Chrysler Security Gateway. 50 bucks a year and all manufacturer said to be going that way in the next year.
Thanks!
And look low and behold you already did a review on it
I really like your video on the Autel Scan tool. I agree with you that they are really great tools, very user friendly. You should do a video on tips and tricks on the tool. I have the Autel Elite, I'm really trying to get the most out of it. I want to link it to a large monitor for my diagnostic cart, and do more printing on scan reports. I really don't know how. That why I think you should try that. Thanks.
How much is the update software?? Thank you sir.
$550 per year, if you resub directly with autel, but that also insures the hardware too.
@@MrPiimpslap Wow now that's some crazy $$$$$$ wouldn't you say ?
@@ne14lov22002 I just resub every other year, I work for an independent shop, so current model year vehicles always go back to the dealer. But this is still cheaper than snap-on.
If anyone is thinking of buying one of these in the Uk from Ebay, don't get the bluetooth version, I've got one, brilliant tool but the battery is rubbish, Autel Uk will not replace the battery without sending it off somewhere far, at my expense etc etc. I have to have a 12volt lipo battery and lead plugged in while I use mine. I'm not going to argue with anyione about this, I have tried all avenues, so don't suggest one. Buy the wired version, it's cheaper than ther BT model. Other that that, if you buy the wired version, you will be very happy with it.
Hi Stephen I'm new to learn about all these car programming device and I'm following all yr videos, and I'm learning a lots from these videos, can u tell me from all these devices which one is the best one between Im608 and thinktool
I have the FCAR scanner and it’s the only scanner that I’ve ever seen work on diesels like UD / Hino Fuso
Ancel 3200… also work on those
Im tired of my Snap On Solus Edge myself😔been wanting an Autel for a while now💯😏
Contact them and tell them you'd like to be an affiliate and possibly sponsored by them at some point. Have them send you one to demo and shoot a UA-cam video. Once they see your hits tell them you'd like to do a second one. They will let you keep it. Thats how you do that.
@@mrjaybennett80 sounds like a plan👍
Very SLOW scan tool compared to the Snapon Solus Edge. As a "flat rate" tech. we are expected to get to the point asap, time is money. That`s why I prefer the Snapon Solus Edge
Exactly
Great content man…. I have a shop and service a lot of BMWs for rental company, have had a lot of Brake jobs but after we do the work, the parking brake malfunction comes on. Would I be able to reset with this scanner. Also do suspension work on them and have to reset the rack and pinion, do you think it will work for this problems?
klunk from catch tha pigeon.
Does this one reprogram the keys?
Good Work
Just so U know Stephen coding is not programming. B4 U can go 2 programming whatever CM U R designing it has 2 B identifiable that's when it's given a code. Once it's coded then the next step is programming. Thanks Steven Cote
I wonder if it can reprogram the Tcm on a later model gm truck or van after replacing the transmission. It has to be reflashed or reset after replacing a 6l80.
I don’t own it, but you need an autel that comes with a j2534 module because you have to flash through the acdelco tools website. This BT960 won’t do it. If you want to flash most modules you need a pc and a j2534 tool to do it.
I have a 906 BT is does not auto ID older vehicles. I have a snap on that will ID the vehicles that the autel won`t. I like the 906 BT except I cannot get the screen clean.
So this thing should be able to program immobilizers, sweet.
Depends. Friend has an autel and it wasn't able to do keys on a 2018 f150

I’m looking for a scan tool. I have a 96 Silverado and a 06 Chevy express. on the Silverado I need to set the distributor with a computer. When I read the description on the scan tools I don’t see anything about it. Is there something you would recommend Witch and such?
I have this scanner...I like it but it does have its limitations. It worked great at reprogramming a new headlight control on a 2014 F Type Jag, but it will not code or reprogram any new parts or modules on my 2009 Buick Enclave. I am guessing that it will be the same for any GM car. Foreign cars yes, dodge and others, but not GM. So buyer beware.
police mode locks the shifter on keyless cars when key is not detected.
Power balance test = cylinder contribution test?
Does it work on semi trucks?
Will that reset the electric parking brake on a 2017 Passat??
Can this tool change tire size and turn off dash cameras I want to go from stock to 305 on my pickup
Yes,Autel and Launch can do calibration service after change tire size
So would this scan tool be able to reprogram a computer to the car if you swap a computer from another car into it?
Yes. The 906BT can code a donor ECM into a different car. There are a couple videos on UA-cam that go thru the process of VIN coding the new ECM.
I used to sell the autel scan tools when I was an outside salesman for advance auto parts. I allowed my friend, who is a Chrysler master tech to demo it. He was going on and on about the "great new proprietary Chrysler scan tool" that his dealership just got. After plugging the wireless adapter into my obd 2 port in my company fleet unit. We sat in his warm living room as he rooted deep into my jeeps computer. After a few hours of playing around and triggering functions of my car remotely. Honking horn, popping hatch, rolling down windows, lock/unlock doors etc. He said that it was every bit as good as Chrysler's $50k
Scan tool. I promptly sold him one for 1000$. Yes, 1000 if you paid more you got ripped.
i really wants one
A question, I see some when you select the type of car it is in color and some are black and white any idea?
Will Autel give you a loaner if yours needs repairs? I didn’t think so.
What about toyota nd lexus. Can it be used on them.
