Good morning everyone,

I'm planning on buying a star diagnostic system to help me with my CL65. I've seen some listed on craigslist and ebay. They offer C3 and C4 versions. Does it matter which one I get or is one more preferred over the other?

Currently I have the MBII scanner for codes etc and it works well. I just think, since I plan on keeping this car a long time, that having the better system would be worth it.

Thanks for any advice.

Wow....61 views and no responses.....I had hoped someone would have some experience with these. If anyone does, please let me know.

Well, I was able to find out the differences. The C3 is for cars from 1989 to 2015. The C4 is for cars from 2000 to 2018. I was told that the C4 version also includes SCN coding.

So, I guess it's ok to buy the cheaper version.

Thanks for sharing your findings. With no intentions of selling my car either, its something I should invest in as well. Most of diagnostics have been done by closing my eyes and listening. Not the best method.
