I am so glad of this video tutorial as i was looking for a new scanner as i have issues with the Autel AP200 as described by Aaanton, seen the Topdon Artidiag 600s. What i was looking for, Aaanton has already shown the functions of the device! Thank you so much Aaanton for your great video content! 💯
I just bought this scanner and glad I found your video tutorial... I was kinda curious of the functionality of this 600 and your video did the job. I sure didn't wanna get a scanner that requires subscriptions yearly...
Your not supposed to plug in or remove the scanner with the key powered. Key should be off as it can voltage spike the computer. I have seen it happen more than once. Great video and very thorough 👍 Does this model do fuel trims as well?
bought one in December of 2022, worked up until this month, will not start diagnosis mode, went to the web site filled out contact section, the company does not return e-mail, and also states that after 2 years they want $545.00/yr for a subscription service
@@aaanton11 Have done a complete factory restoration, and reloaded all of the available updates, it is a brick and they specifically state on their web page that a subscription of $545/yr after 2 years.
Hi, great vlog, would this kit pick up the fault code p2453-54 dpf sensor issue on a vauxhall insignia 2.0 cdti, and if so, would it re-calibrate the new replacement to the ecu? Thanks
Hey! thanks for the review …. But I have a question. for someone who’s new to vehicle diagnosis would you recommend this tool ? And is there a way easily look up solution to errors on this tool or that has to done externally I saw a tool a friend uses and right from the app it redirects you to videos explaining what the errors are, causes and possible fixes. I didn’t like that because it’s wireless and it can be unreliable I’d like to hear your thoughts on this Thanks 🙏🏻
Yes This tool is fantastic like I say in the video, free updates for life, link is AD600 Tester on amazon amzn.to/3TCaQvS The best thing to do is google the codes you find and watch the videos on TH-cam Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hi mate, these topdons look exactly like the launch units, I use the top level Delphi ds150 vci with my laptop, but have just bought a 2018 Chinese mg zs (saic), and to my horror, the Delphi does not cover that make, so looking around for a scanner that covers the Chinese saic mg zs, I know the only launch units that cover saic mg are the top pro x431, but I checked topdons site under vehicle coverage, and it says the artidiag 500s and artidiag 600s cover the saic mg, but I think this is an error and they don't, their site says this model you have doesn't cover saic mg. Have you used either the 500s or 600s and noticed if they cover the saic mg brand, thanks👍
Hi, great review thanks. Just got quick question, I bought one of these and when I look at the "Settings - About" it shows memory as 12GB and not 16GB so before I return it does yours show the same ? Cheers
Sorry to bother you mate but Ive just bought the 500 version to code 2 injectors and the bloody thing doesnt do it, well I cant find the function anyway.Do you know if the 600 version youve got does the injector coding atall ? Thanks.
You will need a bi-directional scanner like the Topdon artidiag pro to code injectors video on it is here th-cam.com/video/1BC9P2naH4Y/w-d-xo.html Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hey. I tried to find out, but failed: Do you know the difference between this 600 and the 600S? Their page makes it seem that the 600s is newer/better, but the specs of the 600 device are clearly superior... Price is pretty much the same. (same for the 500 and 500S). Ok, I see you did go into it a bit, but The devices seem very unsimilar.
@@aaanton11 comparing with vides about the 600s the interface is also different. But the 600 seems to have a much higher data refresh speed and seem to work faster. I agree I'd probably get the 600.
@@hausm3ister I was looking into that as well, and I noticed that the 600S has more vehicles, 90 vs. 42, I don't know if the downloading info via WIFI can resolve that, I was hoping that you could help me with this if you are using the 600
@@aaanton11 Thanks for the reply. Your video was great. But have 1 question.. I've noticed the arti600 which is grey & also 600s which is blue.? Are they the same in terms of functionality? I believe the battery is better in the grey 600 one?
Hi, good review of this obds scanner, have you had any difficulty with updates or the lack of them. Also are they really free and available? Is battery coding /fuel injector coding available for VAG vehicles?

I have just purchased the artidag 500, but I have an issue, the obd cable supplied does not fit any obd port as it’s to small
Sounds strange, they all have the 16 pin plug Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
