Best price/quality diagnostic tool

**hmota** · 16th November, 2019, 08:48 PM

Hello all!
I'm currently sarting a small car shop business ad I can't afford a professional diagnostic tool right know so I'm looking to buy a more modest generic diagnostic tool . It needs to do airbag, engine body etc... not just a generic code reader. Probably a good quality clone will do. I was reading about Autocom cdp an it seems to be what I'm looking for. I'm I right? Does anyone know where I can buy a good quality one? Thanks for the help! Cheers from Portugal!

I think you need X431Pro tool

The AUTEL 908 pro is good.

Cheap tools don't work good.
Launch or Autel will cover you 95% of jobs.
You will need OEM diagnostic software sometimes.

X431 is good sarter.

Buy also some OEM clone for brand that You repair mainly

I have never used the Delphi. Is it uptodate? What can one expect to do with it?

Sometimes the passenger seat need zero point calibration when doing airbag module for Honda. Or if you replace the passenger seat sometimes it also needs calibration
