I want at least to be able to do my own diagnostics, I have seen these Cloned tools, but can anybody tell me that has used one exactly what they will do?
Are they capable of reloading any of the software for example? Can they amend the injector codes on the engine ecu for example? What is the scope of this tool? I see it was talked about a while ago to have this subject, diagnostics tool as a main heading on the forum, is this still something that could be added please, i'm sure there would be a lot of interest?

you will not be able to do software upgrades
injectors no. for the price you will not get a better diagnostic tool. mike

i've just bought one. waiting for delivery, should be tomorrow. will let you know how it goes....
i know i can't upload/download software, but wanted to be able to check all codes/change settings (hopefully)?? the OBDII one i already have is pretty rubbish, so hopefully this will be a lot better. apparently it only works on Windows XP, so just spent the last 2 nights making a dual boot system. |

Not really necessary to dual boot, you can install VMWare Player on any version of windows 7, its free, and then run XP as a virtual pc. Really straightforward and VM Ware player is better than XP mode in my opinion.
