icarsoft MB2 scanner

i got the icarsoft scanner today and just played with it a little bit on my gl

it seems to do a lot
comes in a pretty decent padded case and overall quality seems pretty good

showed the airmatic stuff, tpms, i did not do a lot because i have no codes etc

will read seat weight values on each seat in real time, but i dont see that i can adjust that

a couple of things came up could not read that i definitely have on my car, like the xenon headlamps etc

but i was just sitting in the driveway and they were just on auto, only played with it a few minutes but overall it seems a pretty decent scanner

have no idea how it stacks up against launch and autel but hoping to show it to my mechanic tomorrow and see what he thinks...

if anyone has specific questions about it i could probably hook it up and see if it reads something particular

i got this mainly for trips so i would have some idea of what is going on if having problems/cel etc

Just got mine today had lots of old codes I had to clear one at a time, ABS lights went off but I still have no reading on the two rear speed sensors. Cleaned but no luck so not sure may buy one rear speed sensor to see if it gives me a reading.
