Good find Colin....
They really do come in handy. I've used mine a lot, and so have my buddies. Worth the money.:thumbup:

I went with OBD Book, got it half price at Canadian Tire. Well worth it.
i'm more of a carburetor and distributor guy and don't fully understand the newer stuff. but how can a dealer justify a $100. dollar charge to plug into the car when you can buy one of these for 80 bucks ???

Yeah it sounds a bit outrageous -- and is really. They justify it saying that their 'scanner tools' are quite complex and expensive: in the thousands of $$$ range and can diagnose better.
For most of us backyard mechanics a small, cheap handheld unit is just fine and can tell us most of what we need to know.

Hey Duff,
There's one on sale either at CTC or PartSource -- I've forgotten which now but it's the 3110 unit which regularly sells for $299 on for $199. I have this unit and like it.
emailed as requested also.

Man...you guys with all your new fangled gadgets.....
Us guys with the old OBD1 are still using the Snap-on Mt 2500..( the red brick)...at least I am. I see these for sale; cheap all the time, but they are just a door stop for you guys.

I use a screwdriver and a vacuum gauge.

Don't forget for you C5 and C6 owners that you can clear and read codes from your DIC.
