They all say there the most advanced obd2 readers... blah bla blah bla blalalalalalah. BS.
I can't remember all the names but just type "Snap on scanner vs" into YouTube and you'll see all videos comparing them. DRB I found a few for 900 and below when I looked a few weeks ago. I know Harbor Freight has one that claims it will ldo anything for $189? But I'm not sure if it actually does.

Ill take a gander.. I think I looked in to the harbour freight one but I don't think it even did tranny codes, I know it did air bag and abs. I might try one of these 3, and see how it goes. I'll let you know how it goes when I get a chance to get my hands on one.

The freaking $150 Bosch I bought from oriellys doesn't do anything but abs, and regular codes. Freaking sucks.

They're usually covered by the PCM anyway. I mean TCM -> PCM -> Scanner. So when people scan for codes they end up pulling engine and transmission codes at the same time.
