Why do I suspect that this is a spamming attempt? 😏  
I do not intend to “Google” that product.

I bet very few here know what you’re talking about, much less have an opinion on a $3000 car scanner. You’ll get more opinions on a car mechanic forum.

totally depends on what you are planning to do with it. If you are a DIY with a single 2014 Toyota- then it’s gross overkill.  
If you are a tech in a shop and work on several type of vehicles, then it can be great.

I don’t have that model, I have a couple year old heavy duty truck version, but I love it for my fleet. Most of the time, I use my Autel before turning to dealer software- it’s just easier to work with and maneuver through.

I can’t say enough though: practice, practice, practice. Get used to it, to the functions, and don’t be afraid to play around with the different options it has. Play with the things before you need them and it will be easier to use them when you do need them.

Thanks, Eddo. I have the Autel 808s and a lot of the time it says “not supported by this module” when tryna work on cars from 2000-2010. Was wondering if this means the car or the scanner doesnt support. Thoughts? Partly why I got the updated one because i get that pretty regularly but know the optioms change for the Autel per car, so why offer it if ya aint gonna gimmi the option to use that tab…

ScannerDanner is pretty awesome. tons of good info there.

As for Module not supported, I take that to mean that the particular vehicle doesn’t support whatever it is I’m trying to make it do. That can be frustrating. I’ve not really ever delved into if that is a scanner or vehicle thing, though.
