Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have had this tool over a year now and before I bought it, I had read some reviews with bad comments about updating this product. It is a hard product to update but I have some information as how to update it. I got this info from actron's support people. I was told to go to otctools.com, select support and then downloads. When you get there you will find a drop down menu and you will want to select 3111 and down load it. Its a big file about 321 mega bytes. I ran the program with my actron cp9580 hooked up to my pc. I selected to update the Otc suite and It recognized my actron and updated to the 4.0 scanning suite found on actron.com. The whole otc program converted to the 4.0 scanning suite and I was then able to update my Actron. The update Is great because not only does it go to the later veheicles it will detect them automatically. I did this after spending a few hours on Actrons website downloading scanning suite 4.0 and following the details as how to update it there. Believe me this works. I went out and put it on my wifes car which is a 2009 and it detected her vehicle with ease and no more selecting domestic, year and make of vehicle etc. I have used this tool a few times now and it works great. My email address is rlg@yrless.net in case you may have any questions.
