2015 model year update for Honda, Jaguar, Mazda, Mercedes, PSA, Subaru, Suzuki, Toyota and VAG.Lexus added as a new manufacturer with in-depth coverage on main vehicle systems from 2000 to 2015 including powertrain/transmission, ABS, airbag, electric motor power steering, hybrid.Hopefully there will be a few wallets left to crack open.Updates to the Component Test Meter coverage include the addition of Lexus and the manufacturer’s ABS menus, new vehicles for Mazda, Nissan and Renault, and three new technology classes – driver assistance, pressure transducer, and tips for successful fault-finding. I'm wiggling off Snap-On's hook and I'm off to the slaughter house. 'When in Rome', and 'The Tree that Bends' and such. It's just meat after all, isn't it? Why take your time? Next step If I feel the need to scope something, I'll get a real scope. The $6,000 MODIS is getting either eBayed or shelved, along with the surgeon's scalpel and mask. So out comes the $37 Amazon bluetooth scanner and the $60 Launch cReader V (with lifetime free updates), both do CAN bus and have a remarkable data stream if you're handy with OBD protocol. Customers would rather get their !! ** FREE ** !! scan at AutoZone, Advance, Pep Boyz, Firestone, Cottman's, AAA, Wal Mart, ect ect ect ect.īy the time the problem car gets to you (me) it's been so ravaged by the hacks there's no money or patience left for a true fix and the car gets traded by a slick talking salesman and the industry gets another black eye.
With the market being the way it is, the parts chuckers are grossing far more than true diagnosticians, which I had prided myself in being, but it doesn't pay the bills. I'm loathe to go in debt to Snap-On again.
