thinkcar 1 OBD2 Scanner Bluetooth Full Systems Scan Tool for iOS & Android Check Engine Light Code Reader Real Time Remote Diagnostic

I procrastinated even trying this because I was afraid it was going to be a real pain, but after it was so easily configured it was actually fun to watch the live information coming from your car to your phone. As you rev the engine you can see the RPM gauge in the ThinkCar app go up matching the one on your dash board. I ended up spending hours testing different cars. It's so easy to use but it is a bit hard to understand unless you are very familiar with all the terminology. It's really just plug-in-play and the blue tooth paired to my S10Plus with no problems whats so ever. I really expected this to be a real pain to use or have connection issues like I have seen in the past with other devices. It came is a nicely packaged box and it doesn't really look like much at all but it does a lot more then I ever could've expected. I still haven't done everything it's capable of doing yet, but I did connect it to two cares and a truck with no problems. I wish there was a way to retrieve data off it while it's disconnected from a OBD 2 slot. I guess that's why it sends your reports to you.You do have to download a Third Party app which I don't like to do, but it doesn't require any unusual permissions or anything out of the ordinary. The app was very easy to use but a little hard to understand and you could only do the automated diagnostic full vehicle scan on one vehicle without a paid subscription which I am not willing to invest in at this time. I'm sure I will end up regretting that later but we'll see. The Black Box portion of the app is also fee based but the OBD 2 diagnostics are all free if you can read and understand them. There is also an pretty cool option, which I am not trying at this time, to perform a real time remote diagnostic with a certified mechanic. I am sure there is a fee involved so I didn't look any closer at that feature. It works great in all the vehicles I tried it in and while a lot of it is easily understandable there is a lot that isn't, at least not to me. I'm more electrical then mechanical to be honest.I love the way you could just easily send a report to your email address or even a text message depending on what options your phone has to share to. Just being able to clear pesky diagnostic codes that are a lot of the time false or due to a O2 sensor can easily be reset would easily pay for this device. I am sure all the extra subscription features would be worth it for anyone interested in learning or really troubleshooting a car yourself. For me I just want to it to tell me where the problem is and if it is serious or not and this does a great job of that without having to pay anymore extra fees. This is a great buy and a must have for anyone to own!

Very easy to use, great value for money, I was able to scan my 2011 bmw 320i with no issues, now I can know the health status of my car because I just leave it in the obd2 port, any problem I know it will pick it up and tell me whats happening, it also has a lot of extra functions as well. Great product.

Works well and easy to use but they want you to pay for a subscription of some sort once you've purchased the device.

This requires a contract to connect to database and is useless if you do not agree to continue the contract. None of this was mentiined when purchased. Don't waste your money!

My 09 TPMS indicator is on. Brought other scanner then found out only can read error codes relate to engine.Want to buy a full system scanner, then they all cost 300+See this on only fraction of the price of the full system, so give it a try.It works. It gets everything from my 2009 Corolla (see picture) it read my TPMS error codes, saying 2 TPMS sensors has problem.It can also read some live engine information (temperature, air flow from MAF etc.)Now, for free, it only read one vehicle and for 6 month. After that you will need to get premium. But again, if your car keep having problem, it is worth to get one.

This is an accessible tool but my only issue is that you have to pay every year to use it with your car and if you want to read codes from a different vehicle, you have to pay as well. That SUCKS. That's why i returned it and bought a BLUEDRIVER SCAN TOOL.

It did not work well with my 2018 Ford Ranger 2.2 diesel engine and my 2015 Hyundai 2.0 diesel engine here in the Philippines. There a lot of functions that it could not do. It did not tell me anymore than my Konnwei KW850 OBD2 scanner has told me. This device is probably better to use on gasoline engines than diesel engines.

My first time ever using a Bluetooth OBD2 Scanner at first I had trouble setting up but then I read some forums online and after that everything went smooth I was surprised that such a little thing can tell so much about my vehicle that at the end I had to take my car to the mechanic shop. Overall I really liked the app and how it works and how detailed the information about your vehicle comes up in the app really awesome experience and cost effective as i asked several friends and family and they told me there are far more expensive scanners and mines was as good as those expensive ones they had used.

Product claims free scans for 1 year, scanned 1 car ok, for another car bmw 2013, prompted to pay $9, no free scan. Is it really free scans or should be payed?

La documentación que acompaña el producto es muy escasa y la interfase con el usuario es muy pobre, por lo que es difícil de entender y aprovechar. No lo recomiendo
