Hi Josef, I hope our doing well. I think you need a diagnostic tool consultation with me. This way I can run my framework and give you my tool strategy based on the problems I discover. Go auteltech.co.za and book the DTC service. Hope this helps
Hi Curtis, I have a Porsche Panamera GTS 2015, does this MS906BT have similar functionality compared to Porsche PIWIS II DIAGNOSTIC? Which Autel system will you recommend for my personal use to my vehicles including my Audi and BMW.
HI Joshua, you need to book a diagnostic tool consolation with me so I can ask you more questions and asses you properly. This way I can take the time to give you the best tool recommendation. Thanks auteltech.co.za
Problems are not stop signs, but guidelines. It's not about the obstacle, but the approach. Now that your tool is not able to do this procedure , you need to change your mindset and focus on "the how". I dont mind you making complaints on my channel but I didn't sell you that tool and I cant take responsibly for your problem.
Hi Curtis I’m from Trinidad and Tobago I want to buy a 906 bt can I buy this tool at jb tools also I work on Asian vehicles as well as European would this tool be a good start up for me and also can it do ECU programming without being subscribed
what I've seen so far on Autel and ADAS Calibration it looks like I would need the Autel MaxiSys ADAS Tablet. Would I need this separate tool for maximum ADAS cal capability or can I just download the software on the Elite and if I can, will this software eat up too much of the 32GB memory? On another note WHY aren't we at 1TB of memory yet? I am considering starting a ADAS calibration business. Thanks
Hey MD, There is a lot of options on this topic that I cant explain in one paragraph. If your serious and want clarity I would suggest booking a consulation with me. www.auteltech.co.za/schedule Then I can give you the answers you need . Thanks
@@lsr2.036 I wouldnt touch these tools. The just read codes and alot of guys who work from home buy this model and return it because they later realized their vehicles need coding to resolve the isses. I havent diagnosed your problems but at minimum you need a stage 2 device. The Mx808 series is stage 1
I've been looking to purchase the mk808 but seeing your video made me have doubts about it. It's been 2 years since this video was uploaded, has it gotten any better with updates now? I also usually just work on domestic and asian vehicles and have only ever owned code readers that show some live data and almost no functions so this would be my first scan tool purchase. I don't do any programming or tpms sensors either so would you recommend the mk808 to me? I would really like a tool that can control things on and off for example like vent valves and purge solenoids when looking for an evap leak or powering cooling fans on and also doing idle air relearns on nissans. Would this be a good purchase?
Hello, I dont want to give you any advice with me diagnosing you thoroughly as I could recommend the wrong tool to you. If you want to self diagnose this tool yourself it will be extremely difficult to know the limitations of this model as there no detailed information on it. Personally I am not a fan of stage 1 tools but it doesnt mean its not right for you. You should try and do more research on it before you buy or book a consultation with me to get a professional recommendation.
@@AutelConsultancy thank you for replying. After doing more research and reading your comment I've decided to go with the ms906bt instead. I was also looking at the scan tool harbor freight sells the zr pro but I wasn't really convinced. Now I just have to look for a reliable seller.
@@utbelok Hey Robb, Good choice. I know its a difficult task finding a supplier when there is 1000s of them. Your challenges are going to be figuring out which suppliers sell US versions vs International Versions. Once you determine that out you need to ask them " What are 5 problems that will go wrong with this tool I'm buying from you and how will you address it" If they cant answer those questions I wouldn't purchase it from them as this is going to increase your costs when those situations happen. I know about 10-15 problems that you will have during the duration that you own the tool and one of them is with your updates cost. ( for example my clients dont worry about updates for at least 4 to 5 years) In your case you are going to have those update fees lingering over your head starting from the day you purchase the unit Most people dont think about what happens after they buy the tool so its a good thing to ask your supplier. Hope this helps

It's a shame Autel's User Forum remains just a broken embarrassment and folk have to resort to Curtis TH-cam videos comments section. Any Idea why Autel Disabled their own user forum? I have not seen any you tube videos yet of anyone using that small illuminated dongle VCI (of the MS906BT) paired to a MS908P, so I called Autel of NY and told the small dongle VCI 100 will not work except with the MS906 BT, MS906TS , and the TS608. Sure would like to see video showing whether a $300 906BT replacement Dongle off Amazon could indeed be paired to and work fine or it does not off a MS908P. The seller lists it only as a replacement VCI for the MS906BT, so sure would be cool if Curtis could prove the Naysayers wrong if they are wrong.
Hello. I cant validate tools the information/ VCI being sold on Amazon. What I can validate are vci's that I order for my clients for their devices. When they recieve them I click the VCI manager to pair up the small vci to the scanner. From my hands on experience its compatible with all MaxiSYS tablets with Bluetooth capability. Just make sure who ever you buy it from has the ability to install the firmware on the VCI if its "bricks" after an update. It doesnt happen alot but when it doesn its irritating expecially when they tool you they have to send it in for repairs when the problem could be resolved remotely and make sure they have a return policy if it doesnt work.
