XTOOLA30M OBD2 Scanner BT, Wireless OBD2 Code Reader with 23+ Reset, Bidirectional & All System Car Diagnostic Tool, FCA/CANFD, Car Fault Code Reader and Reset for Android & iOS, Lifetime Free Update

I'm very impressed with this A30M diagnostic device from Xtool. I'm going to keep it in the car for emergency use and we'll as regular diagnostic checkups on my own car and friends/family cars. I've owned cheaper USB diagnostic devices in the past, but this is in a different league:🟢 Helped find the fault to allow an easy fix on a reoccurring airbag problem🟢 Loads of diagnostic and service options that simply aren't available on other brands at a similar price🟢 Has some bi-directional capabilities to test components🟢 Made of metal and feels well made and sturdy🟢 Had lots of regular firmware updates🟢 Super easy to use and fast app - no lags🟢 Works on any modern android and iphones🟢 Fast reply to support email questions🟡 I can't access the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) maintenence mode on a Ford Mondeo 2017. Emailed support and hoping for a future firmware upgrade🟡 Android app not available on the play store at the time of this review, but available on the website or via the support email addresses (replied in mins to my questions 👍🏻)🔴 None!

I have been using this one over 12 months help I’m getting from this device so many things can be done. Absolutely fantastic. Everything worked well straight out of the box and exactly as described.Setup was incredibly easy and the included instructions were simple and easy to understand.I couldn't recommend this scanner highly enough.I have tried a few in the past and this one is by far the best value for money of them all.

Fantastic DeviceUK based car flipper.Do not waste your money on sub par cheap devices or extreme dealer level OBD kit you will not be able to use. This device hits the sweet spot.Full summary, tips and setup guide below.Pros:- Fast, Portable, easy to use- Lifetime free updates- Excellent aftersales support- Accurate and powerful- phenomenally low price even at full msrpCons.- None as of yet or foreseen, will update as usage continuesSummary:Forget the cheaper ballpark £30-80 OBD devices and just get this.Having access to dealer level obd equipment and snap on/autel devices that are £500-£2k the Anyscan A30-M is unbeatable value for money even at twice its price.It has a huge range of compatibility, has enough special functions to keep a seasoned mechanic happy and is simple to learn and operate for a new user.A cheaper device will only read basic codes, the expensive ones will cost you more per year in updates than the purchase price of this.Upon first use we used the device to wipe 8 error codes from one vehicle after a new engine fit, reset an airbag light, diagnose a faulty window regulator, faulty abs sensor and provide live data to analyse an issue on another purchase.It has carried out any function we have required from it.Live data can be recorded and saved to file format for review by another party if required.Tips:- Install the app on an old android tablet with shock case for a dedicated professional look device.- Allow 10GB minimum for app and all updates- If it cannot find vehicle VIN find your year and engine number and it will connect- If these devices are new to you, spend a few hours playing around with it and hitting play/pause on an instructional to learn how to really get the most out of it.-Ensure it is the A30M you purchase as the A30 and A30D are not as powerful.Setup:1) Get chosen device, download/install anyscan app by Xtool on playstore.2)Open app and register your A30M via serial number on device rear.3) Hit the update icon in the app and download packages from your chosen manufacturers.4) With engine and ignition off insert A30M into your vehicles OBD port, a red light will show.5) Ensure Bluetooth is turned on your phone/tablet, start the ignition and pair with the A30M. A blue light will now also show.6) Tap on the app to Autoscan/diagnose the vehicle and begin. A green communication light will now also show on device.If VIN reading fails, use the year and engine model method above to connect.I hope this was helpful.If this doesn't save you money from unnecessary garage work you must drive a 2CV!

I’ve tried a few and really wasn’t expecting too much from this for the price but boy was I wrong! This was originally bought for a job at home but is now in my toolbox at work and it’s definitely a handy bit of kit. I emailed their technical support about one of the functions and had a reply within hours with the help I’d requested. I’ve recommended it to anyone looking and would definitely buy xtool again! The app is simple to use and has frequent updates, I genuinely can’t complain.

Seems very good and comprehensive. Good value as well with lifetime updates.

Unfortunately i had to return it, not compatible with newer cars models I couldn’t test actuators witch was the main reason i bought it

Cheap all round scanner, works great would be 5 stars but takes ages to connect even on a bang up to date iPhone

A30M its great when you have internet connection. 1.5 ago they changed way how to operate and after one specific update you can work only when internet connection present for no aparet reason. The re its no real change where you need direct connection. I had 2 car modules installed simultaneously one was working fully online and 2nd was required connection. There was no difference in diagnostic apart new vehicle updates have very sloow data readout on my particular car its nearly 20s delay with data update. When i bought 2nd unit i had to redownload all car modules again as they are tide to serial number. I had to also contact manufacturer on feew occasions as was having connection error when i was clearly connected to mobile internet or wifi and connection was stable but diagnostic wasn't working. If you planing to bought one for your campervan then look somewhere else as when you will needed it somewhere in the sticks shaman will be better option. I dont accept any manufacturer BS about connected car, or for better diagnosis. Its for pure licensing thats it.
