Autel AP200 Top 21 Things To Know Before You Buy

[@Utilitiesconsultant]

Worth mentioning that the £20 for other cars is an annual subscription that must be renewed rather than a one off payment. If you’re keeping your 2nd car longer than a year, buy a separate AP200 for it!

[@hendersonjp]

Had this for over a year along with worth wow and vcds , nice to turn off stop start . The Ap is very good but but has a lot of repeat data . Also it would be of some interest if you would make time to reply to the concerns instead of just providing links .. Interested in replacing the Ap200 withe the Mx 808 .

[@psions555]

I got one for £48, it took my Volvo out of limp mode by force regen of DPF. What a bargain! If I was being picky I'd say shame it won't work as a standard obd scanner for Torque app etc, I'd like better graphing and display ability

[@JustinPVlogs]

Hi, does this scanner have the ABS auto bleed function to run the ABS motor?

[@nervousordo]

4:40 That's $22/yr per brand/model. So why wouldn't I just buy another $60 Autel AP200 for another vehicle and get a lifetime registration? 🤣

[@IndioBlanco5]

did you find it out?

[@Leeam.092]

Exactly 😂

[@vilemdemel6804]

okay so the 1st one free and unlimted but if you buy more they are good for only 1 year and 22 each each.... but what im more confirming is after year it wont ask me for more money on the original

[@amosdunham2511]

Does it show live running data?

[@davemoneybags241]

Yeah

[@CuriousSoulCanada]

It can print, also it allows to save reports as pdf. On my Mitsubishi it triggers a code when I read the transmission and airbag data. It might be a clone, or software glitch, not sure, but once I have the dongle out, no more flashing lights

[@johngammel]

As I found out when trying to diagnose my Sprinter in the middle of a park with no internet access, and which was confirmed by the vendor, you need internet access or it won't work. They have no workaround so you're unable to even get codes.

[@mhalcon]

When regiter , only work with one brand or a specific model of the brand

[@jamesmichael8549]

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 do 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 ?

[@clmarbejdekuntilarbejdsbru1794]

Does it communicate with PSA DeNox system on the BlueHDI diesels?

[@radostinivanov2428]

I don't understand one thing. can I read a car for which I have not purchased the software? what exactly do the Demo and Eobd options do?

[@smiert13]

Eobd works on any car, no software purchase is needed.

[@lukeymclukinson]

Hi would this be able to perform this function if now what would you recommend for a diyer to undertake this?

[@LB-W]

Does this do Volvo and Dacia?

[@MrChriskep1]

will it read gmc quadrasteer codes?

[@magneticscanner5381]

This work in Android 9 tablet. Or work only in smart phones devices

[@sukhoi3535]

It's work with Android tablet system well

[@rideout1989]

Anyone know if this can read diesel injector balance rates?

[@crystalsam2439]

Questions I have a Mini that I can’t start most likely cuz the car don’t recognize the key. I got the AP200c assuming that I can program a key fob however in the service tab don’t have IMMO key option so I’m thinking of getting the AP200. I can’t put my car in standby or anything of the sort will it still work if car isn’t on?

[@Driving_Miss_Daisy]

Great piece of kit. I’ve got one. Used it on a Mazda. Going to use it on our mini next to register a new battery.

[@mabuthomkhize9491]

Did you come right with the battery registration? Thinking of getting one to do the BMW E90

[@Driving_Miss_Daisy]

@@mabuthomkhize9491 yes. Battery registration was straight forward. Just make sure the all the software is updated on the device before starting.

[@cristianojoana1898]

Can you do sas and dpf regen? Or you have yo buy that option?

[@donniev8181]

​@@cristianojoana1898yes

[@kooltechno5108]

Hey question I was going to buy the ap200 then I see ap200c the c version cost 130$ the AP 60$ do you know the difference between the two

[@therealbigfoot3076]

Yes, one you bend over and get it dry, and the other lubed up well

[@ottofumbler7267]

Good video. Says it has EPB service menu. Does this include rear caliper rewind for replacing pads & discs? I ask because some of these tools open the EPB, but don't necessarily rewind the piston fully. Autel customer services weren't helpful unfortunately with this question. Their answers were a bit "woolly" at best.

[@PainDealer86]

I just recently bought this tool mostly for the rear break job. So far I've pretty much only cycled through the menu but tried out the EPB function and the app has the option for pad change. The dash also said the calipers were in service position for a pad change when I selected it. I'm planning to do the actual job next week. I'll try to remember to update you with how it went :D

[@PainDealer86]

Successfully changed pads for Hyundai Ioniq Electric. Procedure as follows: Ignition on > Select pad change from the app and leave app running (pistons wind back) > Ignition off > Do the job as you normally would (pistons can be pushed back by hand now) > Ignition on > Hit ok on the app > Wait for the system to run the pistons in a couple of times and it's all done.

[@Toby_the_Glen]

Will this device provide basic obd2 info for all cars without download?

[@wyattvanloon6094]

Can you buy the app without the device?

[@davebrown4005]

There is a print facility available.

[@ImGumbyDangit]

Good day Sir, Very informative video. I have purchased one and waiting for it to arrive. I already have an Autel TPMS scanner, but I need to do a few IMMO fobs and maybe keys and I seen another video showing this device doing that. Now as far as initial selection. My Truck is a GMC Canyon, my daughter's car is a Chevy Cobalt. I have heard that if you select GM, to will get GMC, Pontiac, Chev, Cadillac, Buick etc. I'd that correct?

IS it possible to see the real mileage somewhere with this tool ?

[@itsinthedetail9093]

If you purchase 2 dongles Can you register 2 dongles to get 2 different manufacturers please?

[@Joel-yz3eg]

I would think it'd be cheaper to buy the other car manufacturers software and one dongle. But maybe I'm misunderstanding what your asking.

[@itsinthedetail9093]

@@Joel-yz3eg Hi, thanks for your reply. The reason I asked is that we always seem to have a Porsche and a Nissan so that the cost of having to pay for the other brand would work out more than the one off cost of purchasing 2 dongles with free life time updates. At the moment we have a R35 Nismo and a Cayenne GTS.

[@Joel-yz3eg]

@@itsinthedetail9093 sounds like you've got this under control. I have the same issue actually cause I have a Chrysler and Chevy. I guess just make sure you label the dongles so you don't constantly mix them up. My dongle cost me 75 on sale and the software is 21.99 but that's only for a year if I remember correctly.

[@itsinthedetail9093]

@@Joel-yz3eg Hi, yes it is just for a year. So I’ve got 2 dongles and will register one on iPad with one email and the other on our Fire HD with another email address. Hope this helps, I have a channel which I hope to post some videos which you may like (please subscribe!!) 🙂👍🇬🇧

[@allisatum4081]

will it do ABS bleed on Mitsubishi shogun 3.2did

[@markm-ci6rj]

Hi, do you know of a scanner that will read Japanese grey imported cars. I have a MRS?

[@romanjaspe4172]

Thanks for the video

[@johnranaghan947]

it can be saved to PDF doc

[@mdrobiulsheikh4335]

Can I test activation with it?

[@nickys5578]

Thanks for the in depth info I really need a reader that will not charge me an extra $22 per car manufacturer I need. I have a Mitsubishi and Saturn, my sister a Honda, my father a ford and Mercedes, my other sister has a Toyota and Hyundai. So this is not for me, unfortunately.

[@cristianojoana1898]

Does this does sas calibration ?

[@m6rees]

Great review thanks

[@bnbnh8]

Will this reset a weight sensor on passenger seat? For a 2017 civic

[@therealbigfoot3076]

Pretty sure.. it definitely does allot

[@bigbadlouroma]

Which model of these is best?

[@smiert13]

Ap200(No C/M or any other sh...)

[@abukawsar5357]

How do I register on another mobile if I lose my mobile?

[@CEOsario]

thanks...nice job...

[@vns55]

Would this bleed the ABS on a 1998 jeep cherokee

[@therealbigfoot3076]

No

[@Jim_Kay.]

So, I'm guessing this wouldnt be great if I wanted it to view multiple vehicles? I'd have to fork out approx €20 for every manufacturer I view, pity.

[@bobdring8857]

Just to finish my previous comment. It has been over 2 months since reporting my problems to the Autel dealer and nothing has happened...

[@Golo1949]

Autel is a Chinese company.

[@fsouzajr]

register a new battery??

[@sukhoi3535]

Yes if your car supports this

[@neindochoohh7955]

Why not buy directly at Autel?

[@saifakh7843]

I’m getting system error every time I try log in, I’ve registered

[@JerichoMullet]

App not working on my i phone 14 pro max

[@Hillbillyhiker]

Not every function is supported on every car .i got it just to bleed breaks on a 04 Toyota but it's not able because of the ecu

[@rbizzydot2260]

Get to the point

[@sukhoi3535]

Autel ap200 ios app not good lot issues android much better

[@waynec4048]

Do not buy this from Amazon. They have already used it and have it sent back to them and reselling it. That is what happened to me. It did not work for me because Amazon head repackaged it after somebody already bought it and re-sold it.

[@happy543210]

Every company is now a chinese company....they make everything!!
