Thank you for your time, I found the review very informative. As I'm a beginner in the field of system diagnosis, I have a specific purpose in mind for this device – to assess cars before making a purchase. I would greatly value hearing about your experiences in using it for this particular need.

REALLY IT VERY HELPFUL AND WE HOPE LEARN MORE SPECILLY ABOUT AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SOLENIDE FAULTS AND HOW TO CHECK THEM WITH LAUNCH SCANNER
OR WHICH FUNCTION TO BE USED TO TRACING THE FAULT CODES OF TCM

THANKS .

I know this comes with no tech support but when it comes time to having to redo the update where do you get the updates from? I know it's not from launch Tech USA

[MrClarck]

That's a great video, finally a proper review of the Launch. Maybe it's a thought to get the key programmer and try it out. I have a Chinese scanner that does most things but it's not as advanced as the Launch. I really need to get my hands on one of these.

I upgraded my launch diagun to this x431 because lot's are not supported from diagun and i'm dispointed because diagun and x431 are same function and they telling x431 is upgraded software but it's not. Mostly lot's of my diagnostic experience are disapointing from this scantool. Powerfull when supported.

good review TU. they can skip all other plugs and lower the price few hundread. I doubt if anybody has ever used any of them.

[DzevatS]

How is the customer support since it's an international model that's not supported by Launch USA?

[utahyork]

I'm not great at diagnosing problems, but if you tell me the problem I can usually fix it. These scan tools are very handy in finding out the problem, but pricing is a little too steep for me. It would be nice to see something as functional in the $200-$400 range. Maybe future technology will bring pricing down a little more for us home DIY'ers.

[williamh.hutchinson]

Can someone tell me if it's possible to reset the codes in the Mini Cooper footwell module with this scanner?

[adriannyasia]

Nice! I just picked this tool up and had an issue with a vehicle I was diagnosing a few days ago. I called Launch, gave them my S\N and found out that this particular Launch is not recognized by Launch tech USA. I mean, it's an authentic Launch tool, but it's a "global Launch" according to the operator. I was wondering why some American cars keep coming up as import. Is your unit a global spec as well..? I'm curious. Hope I didn't get duped! Smh

[brucebratschi]

I purchased one but before actually using it attempted to talk to someone in tech support. I could not find anyone to talk to and for warranty you have to send it to China. I sent it back for those reasons.

[jamesmetz]

The cost on the things that need to be added and the yearly cost could get too be a problem. Do you have any incites along those lines. That may make another video.

[G-im]

Can you check the coils individually when the engine is running ?

[jhncvngh]

Thank you Mr Jason we are love you so much

[wesleyashton]

Could use one of these at home but may be too expensive just for occasional self repair use

[sebczajna]

Which difference its vs. Topdon or Thinktool? Thats the same tool?

[nattan]

will this work on heavy equipment construction machineries?

[dewaynepotts]

Will this tool disable the auto shutdown that new cars does after 30 minor running

[OldboyWOW]

CAn you see the injectors mgr and etc? Cuz i didnt saw that option in your video. And i have thinkdiag which doesnt show injectors live data to all actors, only to certain
