Great review. I Just received my D8W. Wifi direct, not bluetooth. The bluetooth version 'BT' is slower than W. I'm a long time DIYer and have been researching advanced diagnostic tools for YEARS. Look no further than the D8W. It is outstanding in many ways and the cost and even the subscription after the first 3 free years is much lower than anything comparable out there. Other devices in this price point are inferior.

Yes the Xtool brand is offer a great product with lots of extras including the 3 year of updates. Enjoy your d8w. I have not tried any Wi-Fi Direct tools yet.

Perhaps the manufacturer of DX8 abandoned support for it and released this version to cover the shortcomings. Many of the features in the previous version make you frustrated because you are unable to complete it despite their presence in it.

The milage change error was in another YT video a year ago, so seems like they haven't fixed it eh. You gave it a 10 for bidirectional but yet it can't even set the correct mileage?
@RANDOMFIXАй бұрын
Sorry I don’t follow, change the mileage is possible but it depends on the vehicle. I get this question a lot about change the mileage. So here is the run down. Yes you can change the mileage on certain vehicles ( you actually dont change the mileage, you have to change the kilometers, the base reading is kilometers) and even if you change the odometer just know that data is also stored on the pcm as “ pcm odometer reading “ After 2010 it’s now a federal crime to change the odometer unless a repair was made. There was a previous 10 mileage law but it has since changed to 20 as odometer fraud has shot through the roof. I use scan tools to verify the true mileage before buying a vehicle.

Do you have to pay every year in order for this OBD reader to work ? If you dont pay does that still work ? Do you need to have internet to used it ? If you don't updates does that still work without updates ? Out from the box can you used it without wifi or internet ? Can this scan for Fuel Pressure ? And can this scan for compression test ? Is this a Complete diagnostic Scan tools ?does it Scan from 1996 cars going up ? How about Toyota Camry 2001 2.2 Liter 4 Cyl or Buick Park Ave 2003 3.8 Liter does it Scan these cars ? Does this scan for battery ignition parameters ? Does it Scan for a bad head gaskets ?

It works on your vehicles your mentioned and you can use it even if the updates expire. There is no real scan for a head gasket but yiu may get a misfire code for a cylinder that can help figure out it’s a head gasket. I answer most of the other questions during the video.
