Best OBD2 Scanning Tool?

No, I do that on a 20 something inch screen on a PC.
His is off "99% of the time"
Or maybe just on silent...that is "off" for some people
No, it's off.
As for convenience, all I do is work and sleep, and I don't need apps to help me with either of those tasks.
The friend we bought it from did a decent job keeping up with maintenance. I think plugs/wires are overdue. I already changed the air filter. Might do the fuel filter next and put in the front 3 plugs and wires. Don't feel like taking a day to do the back 3 yet. I can clean the MAF, too. I just hate exchanging parts trying to find a problem. That gets frustrating. It's probably some damn sensor somewhere.
You coming over to help me take the manifold off? LOL!
I researched the steps and it's a full day job for a driveway mechanic. In the Florida heat.
I'm heading up to Siesta Key for a couple days so I'll get back to it once I have some fun and alcohol with some Chicago friends.
I'm sure there is some trick to make it easier
And I might be in Florida in July! Pay for family day Disney tickets and you got a deal!
With the price of Disney tickets, I could pay a shop to do it for less. :toast:
your best bet (besides spending $$ buying one that will do OE level diagnostics) is to try to find one that will display mode $06. within mode 6 there's a misfire monitor that will list each cylinder and how many times it recorded a misfire.
i have this one that i use as a quick reader (for when i don't need to pull out my maxisys). it's feature packed for the price and lists mode 6 support. i haven't used that feature on it, so im not sure how well it works.

most of the autel maxidiag line list mode 6 diagnostic support. so there are cheaper options. something like this is going to be way more useful in the future than a $20 blutooth app, so long as you know what to do with the information given.
otherwise doing spark plugs/wires is a start. i assume it's a v6. they're a cunt to do. especially getting to the intake support bracket bolts between the firewall and intake.
Blue Driver. $100. Shows about everything except KR.... which is really odd. But anyway, I use it. Works great. You download an app to your phone. The app part is actually great cuz it allows you to constantly update the software and reader. As they figure out and allow more parameters to be viewed, and issue updates, you're right there with them, with the most up-to-date info. It never ages.
I was just going to post that link from the OP. Like you say, the Bluedriver does have Mode 6. Plus its own, free, app.

Do you know if they have any support going for the older Hyundai's yet? As far as the other codes like ABS, I mean. Doesn't look like it on Amazon.

It's looking like I will buy the BlueDriver. Best bang for the bucks at $100 on Amazon.

Their website is good. I punched in my info and the BlueDriver will work for both my cars. The site also tells me what features are available for my cars which is really cool. (Under the "Support" tab)
