This Stage 3 scanner does everything i need it to do. It really does allow for a true All around Complete solution to diagging and making repairs. I upgraded from the MS906 to MK908. If I had done better research, I would have bought the MK908 from the very beginning. *just a note, MS906 is a stage 2 scanner...The Hardware specs on the MK908 are far better than the MS908... the MK908 runs supper fast with no lag that is noticed. This is a must have!

I am a professional automotive technician with 30 years of experience and have used a multitude of scanners in my time. I must say that this scanner goes above and beyond my expectations. In the short time I have had it I scanned about 10 different cars and got full fault list from every one.... not just engine faults. Scanned every module on Bmw, Audi, Mercedes, Chevrolet, Ford etc. I used the scanner to release and re-engage rear electronic parking brake on Audi, reset service lights on Mercedes and Audi and test and activate rear air suspension on Bmw. I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend this scanner to anyone interested in an advanced scanner. Super easy to use, update and set up. Wireless connection is solid and requires no initial setup. Just plug in and go. Great product!! It is not going to be a walk in the park to learn this if you are not used to navigating this type of unit. Run the Update software as soon as you can and do it a couple more times after that to get the first batch done, then once a week to stay current. Some people answering questions are not telling the truth about updates and Autel's commitment to the unit. I spend a lot of time in a garage where they are trying to get by with handheld model they never update or a Snap-On unit that they pay subscription for. This is way past the mid-way point between those two units.

I wanted to start out with how well this scanner works. I own Autel IM608, Ultra and now the MK908. I know many people worry about this because it’s not USA supported and won’t do Chrysler’s fca autoauth blah blah blah well that’s true however for the money this mk908 has the same body and software as the IM608 hardware which is way better than the ms906 ms808 and the ms908. This scanner also is a 10.1” screen which is really nice and very fast processor etc. I own many scanners including snap on, Bosch , launch etc and this mk908 fills the holes of those. Let’s face it no one scanner does it all however if I had to live with just one this would be it. This mk908 will do coding, bi directional controls, some key and fob programming etc. note; this does not program Ecu’s etc you need the mk908P and the j2534 box with it. You will also need a laptop as the j2534 plugs into laptop not the scanner. I’ll update this review as I go but I wanted to start here.If you notice I bought an Autel VCI100 to use with my MK908 vs that brick VCI that comes with it. I added a yellow bumper to it and a obd2 cable so I don’t leave it in a car. You can also use the VCI mini with it, you don’t have to use the black box VCI that came with it.Ps the customer support that I received is bar none the best I’ve had in a while. Don’t forget just because a seller is in China etc you can use WhatsApp to call and text them for support, it’s not like you can’t get in touch. The days of going to brick and motor stores are over anyway.

I’ve been a auto technician for 38yrs for a nation wide repair chain and have used many different scan tools. We have used Autel for years with very little problems. So when I was researching Myself a new scan tool. I found this one to have the best bang for the buck. I’ve been using it everyday at work. And it performs well and I’m happy with the purchase. I don’t have the lab scope attachment but like the fact it can be added anytime
