Great review guys!

Thanks James, it’s a great bit of kit.

[@upthereddevils]

I need to invest in a new scanner soon,the topdon looks like a good choice 👍

[@HomeBuilt]

It is very good, I have also updated the link in the description so you now get it for £271 instead of £420

[@rossjohnston9377]

Another great video guys you should have tried your luck and asked Topdon for a discount code incase there are any subscribers that would be interested in buying 🤷‍♂️ you dont ask you dont get 🤣

[@HomeBuilt]

The one we’ve put a link to is on sale now on Amazon, I have also asked them for a special offer in June so keep watching for an update and hopefully a good discount 🤞

[@rossjohnston9377]

@@HomeBuilt well im 100% needing this as i keep have to borrow a diag from folk depending on what jobs i get so i will keep my eyes peeled 👌👌

[@HomeBuilt]

The one in the link is the best price I’ve seen at the moment but i should find out tomorrow or Tuesday if they can do anything else for us, I will let you know mate.

@@HomeBuilt bet you's glad you bough the audi take its good on diesel what millage is on it

[@HomeBuilt]

It’s been awesome, it’s great on diesel and only has 140k! Still plenty left in the old 1.9pd

For the TOPDON AD800BT OBD2 Scanner On Amazon they said it does Mileage Calibration: Copy or write the kilometer value Please can you explain that? ..........

[@HomeBuilt]

If you need to fit a new set of clocks it means you can transfer the mileage from the old ones to the new ones.

[@stevo4649]

thankyou gentlemen,a very good thorough walkthrough,,

[@HomeBuilt]

Thanks Stevo, Loads more on Sunday. I think we went through most of his cars.

[@gc5384]

Quick question for Charlie when you leave school in a few years do you want to work in the motor trade .?

[@HomeBuilt]

Depending on how mynexams go i want to drop out in a year(if mums ok with it😂😂) and work with dad flipping cars and filming, from what ive heard by dad is that the motor trade isnt very good anymore but id love to work full time woth my dad

[@gc5384]

Yes mate that would be good hopefully meet u and your dad one day as I’m looking to get back to flipping a couple too . My advice would be always have something to fall back on so if you get grades do some courses etc if the motor trade does go quiet you can always do the other job you trained for

[@gc5384]

Maybe look in to doing a wee video course .. just an idea Best wishes to all the family Greg .

[@GadgetGazza1690]

Alright Lad's hope you're keeping well

[@HomeBuilt]

Good video where about on the topdon did you find the abs gap Cheer's

[@HomeBuilt]

I’m sure it was through one of the live data channels, I’ll have a look at the Topdon over the weekend and see if I can find it again.

[@newry123]

How do you tell the difference between current and historic fault code , cheers

[@TheWhisky81]

Hi steve, thanks for this great video, as a diy mechanic i think I'm going to buy this topdon, there's lots of warnings on the Internet about fakes being sold on ebay and other sites and not just on topdons etc, is there a way to be sure I'm not buying a fake on ebay if i order one of these, thanks john.

[@HomeBuilt]

Hold off on that as im about to show you guys a better one this week and i have a special offer on it thats cheaper than the Topdon

[@TheWhisky81]
