We know it can be hard work choosing the right scan tool for your vehicle so we have made this little guide to help you along. We have indicated for each manufacturer which years should be safe for you to use OBD2 Engine Code tools for.
Key:
OBD2: This will show what year this manufacturer was OBD2 compliant from. If you follow the link it will take you to our OBD2 Code Reader category. This category lists OBD2 Engine Code Readers, great if all you want to do is read/clear Engine Fault codes and view live data only.
All Systems: Clicking this will take you a Manufacturer Specific/All Systems tools page. These tools will cover more than just Engine systems, they will cover other vehicle systems such as Transmission, Airbags, SRS, EPB and maintenance systems. If you car is pre-OBD2 then this page will also show you all the tools which will work with your car.
