The difference that stands out immediately is the autel has the flagship j-box included. This thing seems to have some kind of basic transmitter instead. The autel box retails for about $1000 on it's own. The tablet isn't especially important. Features are nice on some tablets, but the box is the real meat of the tool.

[@autoguygl]

Very interesting! It is hard to believe that Autel would allow a company to re-badge and sell their product for a lesser price and still be compatible with all of their accessories and, in particular, software and software updates. It makes one wonder how long this level of association and cooperation will continue!

Hi, There is one thing I dont understand with this update fee, is it like a software update (to access more recent car or for more fonction), or is it more of a license like adobe or office, that will stop fonctionning if you dont pay the update fee ?

[@angelkovskiigor]

Hi, the continous updates are both software updates and vehicle coverage updates. It updates also the softwares that operate the different functions. I read on some Autel products description that you can “jump” 1 year of subscription and if you pay the next year it will update everything even with the updates that you missed the previous years

[@jamesmichael8549]

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 fpr Fuel Pressure ? And can this do compression test ?

[@patrickmercado5284]

So I have the Autel 906TS. Now to master it ! Wonder what the differences between the names ? I can ask Autel Consultant.

[@Uncommonsensetoo]

I am curious. Why would one need to update it and pay the hefty update subscription? My car and it's codes won't change, this year, next year, or any year after that. Also, as a programmer myself, I doubt that ANY car mechanic do any programming at all on any cars. Changing some settings/configurations yes, absolutely, programming, highly doubtful. It seems like one of those terms mechanics use to make what they do sound more complicated/difficult than it really is in order to convince the customer that they definitely need a professional mechanic to do the work. I have configured a couple of ABS modules myself and it is not difficult. Just a matter of changing a couple of setting to match the car's specs, that's all.

[@_patontheback_]

Thanks for this clarification. I'm personally getting confused whether I should buy a more expensive scan tools. I guess Otofix D1 is suffice.

[@crunkwun]

Updating is for the newer model vehicles. If you get 2 years free updates, that means any vehicle after the subscription it won't be able to diagnose. But anything prior it will.

I recently purchased the OTOFIX D1 Max from an auction. When I got home and opened the box, the tablet passcode was set and it was not provided. Unfortunately, the phone number for Customer Service hangs up when I call and I'm still awaiting an email response. Any advice or is this going to just be a waiting game

[@SaultiBalldeip]

You should be able to reboot it and get into the Android boot logger screen and choose the option to do a factory reset on it. Once you do that it should erase the pin code and bring it back to factory settings

[@eoghanfla6343]

I can’t understand why Autel would do this but as someone who has purchased their equipment for home DIY it’s kind of annoying to see the huge price differences. For example Autels battery testing unit €299, otofix’ unit which is identical is €119.

@@TruthMatters-fq5sz in regards to the battery tester it’s the same looking unit that does the same job for half the price. Regarding the D1 lite again, far cheaper, does bi directional and also key coding. So that why it doesn’t make sense, you pay less and get more. I just wish I had bought the cheaper kit and gotten more.

[@joshkaiser]

@mrsubaru1387 How does the OTOFIX compare to the TOPDON units you recently spoke about for the DIYer? Thoughts on what’s the better buy over the course time and keeping it updated?

[@MrSubaru1387]

The Phoenix Elite list price is $1800. The OTOFIX is $1000, but there’s a 15% off deal atm. They both do basically the same thing. The Topdon has topology, the OTOFIX doesn’t. As far as the bidirectional controls and data pids, I think they offer the same functionality.

[@garrettlynch4663]

Topdon uses the competing Launch software platform (the core of it is Launch, similar to Thinkcar) and it’s a lot like Android versus Apple. Some people prefer the Launch-style software versus Autel. Personally, there’s no comparison and I’d choose Autel/Otofix. Since both of these models are considered “overseas/global” models versus the US Autel (software is slightly different), Autel / Otofix does a much better job of translating. Topdon for me had some very rough translation issues on certain tests. Topdon, however, would be my pick out if the bunch if you like the Launch software.

[@Ben-kt5rc]

One consideration is that some (but not all) Topdon units come with lifetime free updates

D1, D1 max, and D1 pro all seem to have the same functionality. The D1 lite does not. The Max and Pro have a bigger/better tablet.

[@Jeepy84]

Must use cheaper internals than the Autel, capacitor quality, smaller board traces, something to explain the price difference.

[@FishFind3000]

Could be a cheaper processor but very well might just use the same boards from the autel since it doesn’t make sense to make different ones. Just a lower profit margins. If you think about it, if you can sell more products with a slightly lower profit margin to more people, you will still make more money. Most professionals already have a scan tool and they really don’t need another one. They’re probably looking at capitalize on the DIY market where you’re not willing to invest $1000+ on a scan tool but maybe 500.
