This looks just what I'm looking for, my older X431 causes issues on newer JLR stuff, I guess because it's not DOIP compatible. Excellent review, thanks!!
I bought this tool and used it to regen my Mercedes. Software is not straight forward had to do a manual scan to get access to special functions and select my specific vehicle. Worked well and reset adblue also. Good tool once you work out how the software works
cheers for the video been looking at these for a while but yet to pull the trigger as was not sure if it would be worth it, but looks to be a worthy tool cheers
Hi Jimmy, have you or can you test this on your Crafter, please? I'm looking to purchase a tool for my Crafter, and I'm struggling to find the best solution. Also, I'm finding that just having VCDS is very restrictive and obviously doesn't allow me to work on other makes. Great video as per 👍🙂
Not so impressed with Launch products of late. As a code reader they're great, but a lot of the special functions often fail to complete or simply won't initiate at all on cars I would have expected it work on. Autel seems to do a much better job in that respect but I do prefer Launch's operating system and interface. I guess non of them are perfect, that's why I've ended up with four different brands of diagnostic machines😁
Hi ftiend, nice vídeo... Can you tell me if after the 2 years of free updates its mandatory to buy and update the scanner?! If I decide not to update it continues working or it will get blocked?! Many thanks
Great review. Do you know if this would code a replaced new ABS module to callibrate it after its been replaced on my bmw? As it says ECU coding but not sure if that would code a replaced module and callibrate it. Thanks
19:15 Hi I have a 2017 volvo XC90 and I am carrying out a service on the gearbox. I need to be able to read live data of the gearbox oil temperature. Can this tool do that. Thanks.
You know these are hacked Chinese versions that lack local support, right? They are very gray market, and you may experience issues with software updates and certainly warranty claims. And some local auto brands may not be compatible.
I've not used the MK808S but I'd say they are very similar. Each tool would connect to certain vehicles better than the other so its good to have both if you can.
Appears to be the facia colour, this one he’s using is the x the E has the red surround, apparently x used to have the latest feature but the E has been updated also
So for me having seen your every day scan tool this was pointless.or does this tool do live data with the pressure differential or is there any other tool that can do the live data and Dpf function that yours has with out skipping the mortgage for a year 😊
I have bought one of those a week ago and I was wandering if you can tell me why I don’t have special function on my own? I have to reset the adblue error from my Peugeot 3008 and I don’t have any other function to reset . I don’t have my car it in the adblue reset menu . Can you help me with an idea?
I have had a few code readers/diagnostic tools, it's about time they forced manufacturers to use a standard set of codes, so many readers will not fully speak to the car electronics, manufacturers like to custom their controls, you might get basic codes, but never fully communicate with the various engine/body/drivetrain modules, one of my tools is now almost useless, no updates and unable to talk to some newer cars, Most are Chinese knock-offs and you think its a good tool, but there is no support, Snap-On is good but beyond most home mechanics, even some fairly good gear is way too expensive, I cannot justify 5k for a reader, if in a few years it becomes useless.
By reset do you mean delete? My Citroen relay is showing P20EE… it is going for export, would this tool allow me to disable ad blue system to get rid of check engine/ad blue light and warning tyvm

i got my 919X today well happy with it.

Good tool once you work out how the software works
Great reivew, i presume this can active the fuel pump after a diesel filter change on TDI engines? Currently have 2011 Passat.
cheers for the video been looking at these for a while but yet to pull the trigger as was not sure if it would be worth it, but looks to be a worthy tool cheers
Probably the best tool for the money I could find.
Considering the cost is just over £400, when you compare to my Tab 3 at £6,000.

Hi there!Is reading all the electronics?For example faulty bulb?

No single tool does every car. I always have a couple of different scan tools now
What is the comparison between this and euro tab 3 ? What do you get extra with eurotab 3?
Hi Jimmy
Will this unit work on a Ford Transit 350 hi top with eco blue 2020
And can it change the tyre size
Great work by the way.
Can u do a idle adjustment with it
👍
Hi ftiend, nice vídeo... Can you tell me if after the 2 years of free updates its mandatory to buy and update the scanner?! If I decide not to update it continues working or it will get blocked?! Many thanks
Wish is better this one or the CRP919E
is it good for mileage correction?
Does this scanner record screen or take screenshots?
can it tell you what the % of soot is in the dpf. most give gramms but not %.
Hi Jimmy, how does this come with the Autel you used to use? Do they offer similar functionality?
Yes very similar
Great review. Do you know if this would code a replaced new ABS module to callibrate it after its been replaced on my bmw? As it says ECU coding but not sure if that would code a replaced module and callibrate it. Thanks
All scan tools varie depending on what car it's connected to
19:15 Hi I have a 2017 volvo XC90 and I am carrying out a service on the gearbox. I need to be able to read live data of the gearbox oil temperature. Can this tool do that.
Thanks.
Can this unit show live DPF pressure sensor data? Looks like great value.
Yes it can
@@ORileysAutos Thank you.
After the 2 year free update expires will the special functions still work ? Or it will lock all the old functions
They will work
You know these are hacked Chinese versions that lack local support, right? They are very gray market, and you may experience issues with software updates and certainly warranty claims. And some local auto brands may not be compatible.
Is this capable of flashing an ecm? Or correcting mileage stored in the ecm?
Nope. Not this machine.
Can this disable tpms sensor ?
hi can this reset meredes nox senser and do dpf resets
Hello. What do you think?, is it better than Autel MK808S? Thank you!
I've not used the MK808S but I'd say they are very similar. Each tool would connect to certain vehicles better than the other so its good to have both if you can.
Driving a 2lt skoda , 330k on the engine, keeps stuttering no engine management light , any idea.
Are you going up hill or under load or high reves when it stutters ??
Dont buy a cheap one as there are a lot of fakes out there
Link in the description to this exact one
What’s the difference with 919x vs 919e ? Thanks
Appears to be the facia colour, this one he’s using is the x the E has the red surround, apparently x used to have the latest feature but the E has been updated also
So for me having seen your every day scan tool this was pointless.or does this tool do live data with the pressure differential or is there any other tool that can do the live data and Dpf function that yours has with out skipping the mortgage for a year 😊
Not everyone can afford my Launch Tab 3 so I get asked to show cheaper tools regularly
@@ORileysAutos so is there one that comes in cheaper than my mortgage. When you get a mortgage you will understand
@gareth watts check my new vid on the 129 evo. UK Spec and does live data.
@@ORileysAutos great is the vid out I can’t see it
It has live data and other useful functions. You have to go into the obd2 mode not the autoscan. @intercepter350
If you still have this tool - could you use it on one of your roadside video's please
I don't have it
@@ORileysAutos Ok thanks for the reply
I have bought one of those a week ago and I was wandering if you can tell me why I don’t have special function on my own?

I am mechanic from Brazil, I have one 919e ,please use it in land Rover discovery 4
If I get a chance
god or bad diagnostisk computer ?

It's really annoying you have to have lots of different tools to work on different cars
Will this reset PAT fluid on citroens?
Yes
By reset do you mean delete? My Citroen relay is showing P20EE… it is going for export, would this tool allow me to disable ad blue system to get rid of check engine/ad blue light and warning tyvm
Clarification DO IP is Diagnostics over Internet Protocol, its not the internet its a protocall. But thats a minor gripe ma man
We Jimmy
Would this be a better option than the Xtool d8 ?
Yes
