Overview

A wireless Bluetooth interface plugged into the diagnostic port sends data to this Autel handheld while you move around the car. The Android tablet auto detects the vehicle, scans systems and shares reports over Wi-Fi.

Free lifetime updates and a wireless link are the reasons to consider it. Major brands are unsupported or limited, and the seller warns a paid account may be needed for some functions after updating.

Who it's for

DIY owners of supported models who want a tablet scanner without subscription fees are the target. Shops working on many brands need wider coverage.

Performance notes

What it can do depends entirely on the software coverage for your make, model and year, which the seller asks you to confirm by VIN. The wireless link lets you watch data from the driver seat or engine bay.
