Very good scanner. Great price with great features. A few hiccups though.
I started at 3 stars, but went with 4. I must say the MK808 is a very good scanner. It's just as good and does all the same things my 2010 MACTools Taskmaster scanner and that scanner covers every model 2010 prior back to 1987 with all the connectors including giving common repair fixes for each trouble code. Has a very nice size and very useable interface. Comes with an OBDII cord probably 4 to 5 feet long. Didn't measure it. Very nice solid plastic case and manual. Actually a pretty decent manual.
As advertised, it does pickup the VIN number automaticly and it has a great many tasks covered under such as TPMS and another 10 to 12 major tasks.
It picked my 2002 and 2010 Ford F150 and F350 as advertised. Again just as good as my Taskmaster. It also, after I input the VIN, recognized my 1999 Ram 3500 diesel. It wouldn't pick up the VIN automaticly. Haven't tried my 2000 Nissan Frontier and I know it won't read my 1991 Ford Ranger. Doesn't come with the cables to read OBD1 and prior. I even printed the report wirelessly from it to my inkjet printer. I didn't try resetting the oil change light since it's not time for it yet. I found it also had current fixes for most trouble codes just as my Taskmaster which is extremely handy.
The one thing I found issues with was discovering not every vehicle model is included in all tasks. For example, TPMS. As advertised, it's in there. Unfortunately, not for my 2010 Ford F350 gas engine. It's in there for the diesel version. Haven't tried my F150. My 1999 Ram 3500 diesel isn't covered in all tasks either. Just the main diagnostics and a few there aren't covered, but it's also 22 years old. I had to buy a MaxiTPMS TS401 to activate and test the TPMS sensors because the MK808, as mentioned, didn't cover my F350. Even with buying the MK808 and the TS401, the total didn't come close to the $1500 I paid for the Taskmaster brand new in 2010. Nowadays the MAC and Snap-On scanners are well north of $6000. Unfortunately, you won't know if your vehicle model isn't covered by any task until you plug it in.
For the average around home mechanic, it's a great tool at a great price. Keep in mind, your updates are only free the first year. I haven't gotten where I've had to pay for updates yet so I don't know the pricing. However, you may not need the updates if little changes.Read full review...

Not worth it.
Well lets start with updates. You will need to pay for them. While other scan tool give them to you free. Plus they will do the same scans. The only way to get instructions is to down load them and that is confusing as well. To do that you will need to find the serial number and then they ask a lot of personal information. They don't really go into much detail of things that you will need to do before you can use the scanner. I have use one like this for years and they are more friendly to use. I would return it if I knew about the updates. This is not for the home user that only uses it once in a while. Save your money and buy a different one. You will be much happier.Read full review...

Great product.
Autel MK808 BT Pro is a great product user friendly if you have an understanding of how it works that can be found on their website or Utube mechanics on line can walk you through many scenarios of functions it has for diagnostics and repairs you can actually test components to see if their working before you remove them to eliminate parts being thrown at vehicle true game changer for the guy who just likes to work on his own car or truck but goes even further than that thanks Read full review...

Another smarter than me device.
I haven't ran one of these before and it takes time to get familiar with it. Like a new cell phone it does things differently than others. It gives me some imformation my other scanners don't. I use live data a lot and I haven't figured out how to get it to read it yet. It has a tremendous base it's working with and is much quicker than a Snap-on brick or Solis. Read full review...

Reliable
I had been saving up for a snap on scanner for quite some time now. But with further research and networking I found out about Autel and this became a VERY useful tool for my box. I’ve been able to diagnose with ease, isolate problems and troubleshoot the root malfunctions. This tool paid for itself in the first week of me receiving it. I am Satisfied 🙌Read full review...

MECHANICS REVIEW
The mk808 is an awesome machine! we use the higher end autel systems in the shop, but i do a large amount of side work at home. These days you pretty much need a scanner for everything. The mk808 is a great option for home mechanics or anyone that just wants to be able to fix their own car, and for everything it has to offer this product is well worth the money.Read full review...

Autel MK808BT, a very capable OBDII scan tool
I bought this scanner to replace my handheld MaxiCheck because I wanted full live data capabilities. As a bonus, it has MANY other service features and bluetooth connectivity. So far I have been very happy with it and I would recommend it to anyone looking for an OBDII scanner with full live data and common service functions. See my video for more details.
Edit: Amazon doesn't allow full 1080 HD videos to display properly on their website without distortion. I had to reduce quality for my video to display without being extremely grainy. This is a well known problem with Amazon video reviews. Maybe one day the worlds largest on-line retailer will fix their website so modern video reolutions can be used. lol.Read full review...

Best scanner on the market
This is by far the best obd2 scanner that I've ever owned! This scanner gives you the same ability to diagnose/scan /service your vehicle that most shops offer. It is user friendly and accommodates all make and model vehicles. Read full review...
