XTOOL A30M

Great for diagnostics but EU ford will not have a lot of special functions. ABS module will give random error while reading error codes.

Works perfectly

So far so good
Amazing tool for the price

After checking reviews and doing research on features vs. cost, I ordered the Xtool A30M from XtoolGlobal. Living in western Canada I expected the unit to arrive in the 5 - 7 day window identified. Instead, the A30M arrived only one day after it was ordered and it was in perfect condition. Setting up the A30M was easy and the numerous updates installed well and went quickly.

I currently also have a mid-level Innova code scanner. The A30M cost a bit more but it does much, much more and is easier to use. I have used the A30M on each of my three vehicles with good results. My 22 year old Toyota van is considered OBD2 old protocol by the A30M so I had to input the VIN and mileage. Less scanning options were available on this older vehicle, along with less bi-directional diagnosis ability, but I was already advised this by Xtool when I emailed them prior to my A30M purchase to confirm that my vehicles would all work with the A30M. My other vehicles are both newer Toyota hybrids and both were quickly identified by the A30M with regard to VIN and mileage, along with many more scanning options.

Overall, the A30M identified some codes that my Innova did not. The reporting and sharing of results abilities on the A30M are a game changer compared to the Innova. The bi-direction abilities to help diagnose causes of problems are extremely useful. I am happy with the A30M and I use it for DIY maintenance on my vehicles. After seeing what my A30M can do, a couple of my friends plan to order the same scanner.

A lot of function,quick send.
