I just purchased this one , Autel AP200 from Amazon and this 38Pin Diagnostic Connector for Autel MS906/908 Be*z Car Diagnostic Tool NEW from ebay. They seem to work pretty good. Did full system scan had quite a few stored faults and scanner erased all but one. Can also do live scan.

Thank you for the information I'm going too order one and the 38 pin connector,what was the code that it wouldn't erase?

I see it doesn't read the bas/esp codes that's the reason why I was looking for a scanner that will read them codes so I can fix and shut them lights out I guess the autel doesn't I'm back at square one again

My2001e430w210

I see the autel does read the (esp)code but not the brake assist system (bas) I have both them lights on and the ABS light this car is driving me nuts lol

It looks like the bas is part of the esp. I see a bas fault in the esp test.
