Code Reader / Data logger / Laptop

[BRZ71]

I was going to buy the standard code reader from autozone, but I have found several on ebay that do more and will connect to my laptop and cost less or around the same. Can anyone suggest a good one under 200 dollars???? I also want to be able to use it on my wife's car, family's vechicles, etc. to help them out with their diag problems. Thanks

One of the best, Auto Enginuity!

 

It's way better than the Autotap I had before it!

this one might be best bang for the buck

I haven't used either of these programs, but the 2nd one linked seemed very inexpensive. The only downside I see is that you need to have access to a serial port on your laptop. Not too many laptops have serial ports these days. Of course, there was a note that you *could* try to use a serial to USB adapter but that is more time, money and potentially false hope.

 

The 1st one was almost double in price, but had the USB adapter built-into the unit.

I am one happy AutoEnginuity user. This thing has saved me so much money over having to go to a shop for every SES light and to learn what my LTFT is.

Anyone have any experience with Auterra?
