Amazing that you get a lot of bang for the buck. When I started DIYing, all you could get was a code reader. Tool trucks had better stuff, but for huge money.
Awesome video brother. Nice scan tool. Wish i could afford something like that. Keep the content coming. Hope you have an incredible weekend. Much love and RESPECT.
Hello CP: Thank you for this video sir. A ways back you had mentioned the Xtool D8 with the corded connection to the diagnostic port. I must agree with you 100 % that I prefer the wire connection to the diag port as the Bluetooth connection has a tendency to loose the communications with the display + at times poor bluetooh range. I must say that this tool has bailed me out many times, is well made, the weekly updates I run are terrific so for what I do now it's terrific. Now if had my businesses I must have multiple scan tools by different OEM'S cause there is no one tool for all regardless of price. I've gotten burned many times with programming using aftermarket scanners so all of my programming needs it goes back to the OEM DEALERSHIP. Nice job CP, & my best to Henry. TMP from N.J.
I have problems with the xtool and the live data stream. The scaling is locked in and cannot be changed, I would except auto scaling but that doesn't happen. I was trying to monitor a rear O2 sensor and the scaling was set to 10 volts plus and minus
Hello, nice review. Im a diy’er i started first with d7s,d8s,d7 then a30m im exploring and selling them if i feel i dont need them no more. Now im tyring the launch platform. I feel launch can really do more. But as youve said in the review, most if the special function is not support ive experienced that. But mostly its the car that is not equipped right? Now im planning ng to explore the autels… would you recommend it? Whats the best among these 3 for you?
I have the Xtool nice unit for the price! Use it a lot for new key programming, nice side hustle! My only complaint is it’s speed is not the best. Have had mine for 2 years now.
This is $400 on Amazon. I think I would’ve went with a D8S or a D8W. More money, memory, and possibly future proof. Plus topology. I think the D8 you can also use as a pad.

Awesome info thansk buddy for sharing!!
I have problems with the xtool and the live data stream.
The scaling is locked in and cannot be changed, I would except auto scaling but that doesn't happen.
I was trying to monitor a rear O2 sensor and the scaling was set to 10 volts plus and minus
Interesting what tool was that on a D8 or D7?
I also had the live data inaccuracy problem on a xtool d7.
Was going program key on 2022 Toyota, it asked for 50 points, which I have no idea where to add points and how much it cost
I have had the live data inaccuracy problem on a xtool d7. Doesn’t work sample rate too slowwww.
Hello, nice review.
Im a diy’er i started first with d7s,d8s,d7 then a30m im exploring and selling them if i feel i dont need them no more.
Now im tyring the launch platform. I feel launch can really do more.
But as youve said in the review, most if the special function is not support ive experienced that. But mostly its the car that is not equipped right?
Now im planning ng to explore the autels… would you recommend it?
Whats the best among these 3 for you?
It's more the vehicle that's the issue than the tool.
@@CPthetooladdict thanks! I already got the launch on hand now. X431 pro elite. To you which do you prefer? Launch ir autels?
I have to replace a control module on a 2018 Mercedes S series headlamp. Can the IP819 code a new control module?
I'm not sure on a Mercedes. I don't work on those, unfortunately
I have the Xtool nice unit for the price! Use it a lot for new key programming, nice side hustle! My only complaint is it’s speed is not the best. Have had mine for 2 years now.
Thanks for the tips! Yes, it isn't as fast as my launch
Wish you did this video a month ago, I just bought the Launch x431 Pro 5, it was $1200.00, you would have saved me money.
You're better off with the launch trust me!!
@@CPthetooladdict Could you clarify why please? It’s third time I saw on UA-cam from pro mechanics…
which is better xtool d9 or launch x431 pro 3s thank you and I await your response
Launch 100%
ok and which launch do you recommend plus what model do you recommend 3
Hey CP. Does the xtool do rear camera codes?
Great question. I have not had to experience this, but now I'm curious, so it's now my mission to find out!!
Does this have topology
Unfortunately it doesn't
For the price don't look half bad option for a DIY guys
This is $400 on Amazon. I think I would’ve went with a D8S or a D8W. More money, memory, and possibly future proof. Plus topology. I think the D8 you can also use as a pad.
This is actually 399.99 if you look at the link, my guy!! 100 off cupon right now
Xtool D9 pro, espectacular!
Xtool is not good on older Chrysler just like autel
The start up on these xtools making me think twice about buying one. Reminds me of UTube mechanics
Xtool is not that great
WooOoOoOoOoOoooooOo!!!! DAAAAG-NahStiks
Launch is better
💯
What launch for 400 ?
Why???...never heard much good about launch
Looks slow hard pass
