I have used it to read error codes and code in various things on my car including folding mirrors, disabling auto unlock and numerous other small things which I fancied.
For me it is a great tool to keep in the glove box and gives me instant access to diagnosing any problems that may occur while on the road.
It is to my mind, a really good, cheap item to own for anyone considering home maintenance although it has its limitations and there will be better (but possibly less convenient) readers on the market.
For me, for the money, it is well worth it!
Oh wow that's interesting that you don't have any annual fees. It's $59.99 a year in the U.S. It does seem like a great tool like you listed above but the Schwaben pro scan is $183 on ECStuning.com so i was wondering if it would be a better option to just go with that instead of paying $60 a year for the carly software unless there was a clear benefit over the Schwaben.
