Competition between scan tool manufacturers is great for us on the front lines. Only thing is, for the next scan tool I want topology.

[@ThePracticalMechanic]

Me as well. I have been using more and more OEM and really like the topology they have built into GDS2, wiTech2.0 and FDRS. I have other launch tools but I don’t think they show true topology like the OEM tools do.

it's labeled Honda/Acura on the link with a Nissan option... I need a toy/lex one );

[@ThePracticalMechanic]

I contacted the seller and they ran out of inventory in the Amazon warehouse. I was informed that it should be resolved in about 10 days

[@beforedawn]

@@ThePracticalMechanic thank you for that! I may have to get a car before then, but at least if I get a toy/lex I'll be able to get one of these. I am looking at hybrids. Nice to know these work for the keys!

[@richardjones647]

Thanks for the review! Do you know if you can program a key with it?

[@ThePracticalMechanic]

I heard you can. I will try it this week if I have time.

[@ddk80]

Can it program replacement keys to start the car? I lost my spare set and only have 1 copy.

[@only1hollywoodjacko]

Says it can in their item description

[@newttella1043]

Worth buying the tool if it works as those keys are insanely expensive. If it doesn't work, you still have a usable scan tool.

[@newttella1043]

Update - I bought some OEM H chip keys from ebay (The Car Key Guys) and programmed them easily with the Creader. My vehicle is 2014 Corolla. Once programmed you can get keys cut anywhere. Careful buying keys from Amazon, I had to return them, not recognized by my Corolla. To program new keys, look for immobilizer section, select key registration and follow the screen instructions. It does have option to program all new keys and erasing old keys.

[@SparkyArchie]

Set area for US and it will work

[@philh9238]

Do they only come In Toyota? Or can you get different manufacturers I’d be interested in one for Chevy
