Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I needed something inexpensive but reliable to keep in the glove box for those check engine lights that happen away from home base. This unit checks off those boxes and more. The only real concern for this unit is that it is pretty big. It sticks out from the the port a bit more than some others and it might be an issue if you keep it installed all the time. That being said, I left it installed for a few weeks and never nailed it with a knee or anything. For the price, you can afford to try it. I bought this in June 2018 to replace one that cost 4x. That one was an exercise in troubleshooting every time I needed it. The BT communication with multiple devices just didn't work without removing everything and starting from scratch again. Not really what I wanted to do when I have car trouble. It has only been 6 months now but I have been able to get this BAFX unit to work the first time every time. I plug it in, fire up Torque Lite and it shows me the code (or lack thereof) every time. It also sends many other parameters for which I have not needed to use. I could see using this to make a cool dashboard with a tablet or head unit running Android apps.
