    Does anyone have a recommendation for a scanner that will read codes and reset them? I know there are low, medium, and high cost units out there. I don't need an expensive one but am debating between a low cost one in the $35 range ans one in the $100 range. What have you found useful? Thanks.

    I have a New Blue Driver that I was thinking about selling. Retails for $99 but I will sell it for 50. This is the blue tooth adapter and the mobile app is free.

    I bought this one awhile back. Pretty cheap and seems to work just fine on all our cars and a couple buddies cars.

    It's nice if you intend to loan it out once in awhile cuz the borrower doesn't have to load an app on their phone.

    Takes maybe 1 minute to download an OBD app...easy to update too. Multiple apps to chose from instead of being stuck with one possibility with maybe no support.. My .02

    I have the OBDLink MX Bluetooth. You can pair with iPhone, Android, and/or Windows. In addition with my testing of the android app, you can buy Enhanced Diagnostics for $10 per year model. This gives access to read and clear codes from modules such as ABS, Airbag, Transmission, and BCM. It works well to monitor transmission temps.

    Works great. Lots of decent apps out there. Some free, some a few $ .

    Actually, I decided to keep it. It’s done well for reading codes when I needed it.
