TOPDONCar Diagnostic Tool ArtiDiag800BT OBD2 Code Reader Bluetooth Wireless Scanner with Full Systems Diagnoses, 28 Reset Functions, Free Lifetime Upgrade, for 10000+ Models

I have been using the TOPDON Arti800 BT Scanner for over a week now and has been a pleasure to use.The Device fits very nicely in the palm of the hand and is a good size. The Colour Display is Clear and bright and Touch screen is good maybe a bit too sensitive at times I found.I liked how neatly the Bluetooth Dongle stows away into the bottom of the Device.Connecting to a vehicle was easy I plugged the Dongle into the OBD socket, and the LED lights up showing connection to the Vehicle and then flashes when there is communication between scanner and dongle. This then powered on the Device and went into Scan VIN Number and within a minute automatically found my Vehicle and I was able to read the codes from the Vehicle. The Health Check scan is a good option as it scans all the modules from in the Vehicle and gives a Preview of faults stored.Also, modules can individually be selected if you want to Quickly Read a Fault Code. There is also an option for live Data View but not used it much yet.Another Good Feature was There is an inbuilt Library Which shows Fault Code Descriptions and gives an overview of the Fault Codes.The Case Supplied is neat and has a Carry handle and nice little compartments to Store the Scanner and the Charging plug which also comes with different country adapters too.The Battery Life seems good and System Boots up Quickly too.What I did find is When Doing a VIN read it did not pick up a 2003 and 2007 Vehicle automatically but was fine on a 2011 Vehicle. but it’s not a problem as you select the Make and Model separately and are able to Scan codes that way.One thing to note is that when you first set up the device for the first time, you require to connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi. This is for updating the database and turned off if need be.

A great product. Excellent for diagnosis and realtime monitoring. Packed with features and easy o use. The Bluetooth is great as cables always seem to be too short for these diagnostic devices.

Got tired of garages asking me fortunes to fix my cars, so i went ahed and ordered the TopDon800BT from Amazon.Product arrived very quick, in a quality package and i got straight to business.Straight away i managed with the help of the TopDon800BT to pinpoint an issue i had on my Volvo S80. Last garage i went with the Volvo told me i need a new engine, car has 90k miles on the clock.It was a lambda sensor that was shot, ordered the part and changed myself in 5min, car runs like new. This scanner has also the option of testing and programing each individual part, from sensors to injectors etc.I am really impresed with this product and wish i knew of it before spending fortunes with shady garages.You get daily updates, it also searches the internet for the error code you have on the car, providing solutions, amazing!I helped couple of my friends with the TopDon800Bt and fixed some complex issues they had on the cars.It's an awesome product, really easy to use, I can recommend it to any one who wants to save money and time with diagnosing and fixing the cars.10++

Our local garage changed ownership and the quality of service is now pretty poor, so I am doing the maintenance and repair on our cars (Subaru Forester 2.0D and Fiat Panda Twinair). To do this efficiently, I needed a scanner to identify issues and fix problems on our vehicles. I tried a couple of dongle's that work with a downloaded app on your phone (e.g. Torque), but I couldn't get any information from the Subaru. Having satisfied myself that 'you get what you pay for' (the dongle's were about £40 apiece) and reading plenty of reviews, I bought the Topdun 800BT for £299. The item was shipped quickly and safely.I put the unit on charge for an hour, booted it up and linked it to the WiFi and checked for updates. Instructions are clear and easy to follow and it was simple to link the dongle to the hand held unit.With a couple of touches of the screen, the unit identifies the car's VIN, you can then command a 'health check'. It takes a few minutes to check the whole vehicle and then the information is displayed; whether the component is operating well, or if a fault has been logged. When a fault is logged it has fault code.'Click' on the code and the WiFi linked handset opens a Google search page, describing the fault code, identifying the parts, linking in to parts suppliers and videos showing how to repair the fault - brilliant.The ArtiDiag can also provide real time readouts on all, or selected, components and take a video of the data. This data along with screenshots and diagnostic reports can be emailed to yourself (or a customer)'The unit feels well made and robust and the buttons, touch screen work really well. The dongle slides and locks into the handheld unit, keeping it well protected when not in use and the whole unit comes in a nice, padded, bespoke case.I have only had the 800BT for about 3 weeks and I definitely fall into the 'amateur mechanic' category, but I can see that this tool is going to be really useful. I have identified and repaired 3 faults on one car and one fault on the other. I suspect that this tool is capable of a lot more wizardry that I have utilised at present, but, with my basic use, I couldn't be more chuffed with it.

I have Just brought this product one week ago first thing is good value for money as you get life time software updates which makes it stand out from the rest. You also get Bluetooth with it which is why it is a very modern diagnostic device it has 28 reset features but no bi directional control on it depending on vehicle you may not be able to use all of them Topdon also provide aftersales assistance after purchasing product thank you.
