FYI, the xtool a30m arrived today, i tested the xtool a30m on a 2018 toyota rav4, the a30m is able to read live data from different modules, however, i was not able to view the "distance traveled" on the different modules, the odometer was only visible on the "meters" module, not on the ECM, PCM, or TCM.
Good stuff, thanks. Is it possible the ECU was replaced so the milage would be different? Some also show engine hours but that could be inaccurate for something like a service vehicle that may have sit at a job site for an hour with the engine running. Thanks for the content.
Esto se puede ver con el OBD ELEVEN? Para coches VW ( he visto que si, haciendo unos calculos, pues que guay, estoy muy agradecido que lo hayas enseñado)
Thanks for your videos! I'm having trouble finding accurate mileage readings for a 2016 Mercedes C-Class (S205). I've followed your steps and tried a few different methods, but I can only get the mileage from the tachometer unit, which isn’t the most reliable for spotting potential rollbacks. Do you have any tips or know where else I might be able to find this information? Your advice would be greatly appreciated!
I checked the Mercedes E 2017 last time and I had to go trough 60+ units to find maybe 2-3 stored values but eventually I found but I expected lot more.
Any scanner that can access live data in all control modules can read mileage data but not sure how many modules store mileage in older car like this. Probably not a lot of them if any
None of these work at all it only works if it was recorded at a dealership or a place that’s works with carfax so for instance what if you go to the dealership and you had 34,000 miles today and 6 months later now you at 40,000 miles you cannot used the device and roll back the mileage below 34,000 miles the scanner would pick it up because the dealership locks the mileage in the computer data base so best bit don’t go to the dealership
Well apparently it works since I could find data about rolled back mileage on multiple vehicles, but you cannot find it on every car. And dealership records don't prove anything unless you have e-sim that is connected to dealership. If you don't have e-sim, they can just roll back mileage before going in for service and the dealership will have record of already rolled back odometer.
Bonjour, ces différents modules de vérification sont présents uniquement dans les véhicules de technologie modernes qui ont un écran d'affichage digital au tableau de bord (pour par exemple le GPS, internet, radio, etc...) ? Merci.
Bonjour, les voitures plus anciennes ont également plusieurs modules de commande, mais pour beaucoup d'entre elles, elles ne permettront pas d'économiser du kilométrage. Chaque voiture est différente et chaque modèle stocke le kilométrage dans différents modules, mais en général, plus la voiture est récente ou plus chère, plus il y a de chances que plusieurs données de kilométrage soient enregistrées. J'ai utilisé un traducteur, j'espère que cela a du sens.
@@iamcarhacker Oui ta traduction a du sens, je te comprend très bien et je te remercie. Si j'ai bien compris, le "Cluster Speedo" de compteur de vitesse est constitué de plusieurs modules qui se partagent les données kilométriques. On peux changer par exemple l'enregistrement kilométrique dans l'ECU ( appelé aussi UCH ou Bsi) mais il y aura des modules (ABS, Air Bag, etc...) qui n'auront pas leurs enregistrements changés. Est-ce qu'on peux changer les enregistrements existant dans ces modules ? (Remarque : De nos jours il y a un archivage des rapports des contrôles techniques automobiles avec accès au grand public donc toute modification du comptage kilométrique est inutile). L'outil OBD PROG-MT401 et l'outil OBDSTAR X300M permettent-ils de changer automatiquement tous les modules du Cluster Speedo ?
Oui, les données peuvent être modifiées dans chaque module, mais cela nécessitera un appareil plus sophistiqué. Par exemple, sur ce rapide, vous aurez besoin de VCP car VCDS ou OBDeleven ne vous aideront pas à réécrire ces enregistrements.
If your car stores mileage in engine control unit, the simple Veepeak or other ELM327 + Car Scanner app will be enough. If not, you will need something like Thinkdiag2 to accces mileage data in other control modules like dashboard.
I bought a 2011 Acadia couple weeks ago. Seller apparently changed the mileage from 189,000 to 109,000. If I buy the Thinkdiag2, can I change the mileage to the correct value?
i looked up their site and they say it supports live date but i think its just for the engine. Good to detect a non working air flow senser for example but not for reading live data in every moudle that the car has so no it will not work.
Yes and here is how you do it explained: czcams.com/video/Jmqgt4VHSqs/video.html&t Basically what you need to do is go to different control modules and find mileage records so you need scanner that is able to scan data from all modules not engine only.
If you mean to verify mileage, the generic app won't be able to do that. You need to check mileage in multiple control modules, but simple OBD2 apps will show you data only from the engine. But for diagnosing the Car Scanner ELM OBD2 is good and also these: czcams.com/video/hXVat0N3E_o/video.html&t
I found on OBD facile that there is number of counts for all types for monitors like EVAP and O2 Sensors. Something like 8437 Counts for O2 monitoring. Maybe I can calculate mileage with that.
Hello and thanks for the helpful video. My question is, is there any way to check other car brands without subscribing like „Thinkdiag“? „Obd eleven“ is for free but is only for the „vw“ group. Can you recommend any tool and software? Pls without subscription. Thank you very much.
You can use it to find real mileage value in some control module if they didn't change all of them. (works best for newer cars, older cars do not have mileage readings in many units).
@@iamcarhacker sorry, I meant scanners that has full live data reading capabilities. I have emailed ThinkCar tech support to inquire whether the ThinkCar Mini can do this, at a far more affordable price and no yearly subscription required.
@@iamcarhackerthanks for the answer. I mean the thinkdiag with the operation light in the perimeter of the tool. Can you say something about that? I searched in the official site bur I don’t understand if he read live data of a Mercede w204 or not

Yes if ECU was replaced it can possible show different mileage

Yes you can see it with OBDeleven or any other scanner that can read live data in all modules.

Hello monday will be video doing it will OBDeleven :)
Can you correct Mercedes e class 2021 mileage
Or Audi A6 2021 or BMW 5 series 2020-2021
Or Tesla Model 3 2021 ?
Thinkdiag2 cannot correct mileage on any car
None of these work at all it only works if it was recorded at a dealership or a place that’s works with carfax so for instance what if you go to the dealership and you had 34,000 miles today and 6 months later now you at 40,000 miles you cannot used the device and roll back the mileage below 34,000 miles the scanner would pick it up because the dealership locks the mileage in the computer data base so best bit don’t go to the dealership

@@iamcarhacker so a 2020 Mazda 3 has e sim
My scanner reads something from the computer about mileage.

I just installed a new instrument cluster for my 2016 ford explorer can I adjust the mileage up to the correct mileage so it reflects correctly?
Not with these scanners...you need one that can do odometer correction
Love your goldfinches songs 😅
Amazing educational video. Thanks
Thank you 🙏
I just want a scanner that can check my present odometer reading on a vehicle with faulty LCD display.... Any suggestions?

Hello! the one in the video is the last thinkdiag2 ? Can thinkdiag 1 ( Tkd 01 ) can also do that operation?
yes
Does BlueDriver Bluetooth Pro OBDII have the same capabilities as OBDeleven OBD2? Especially for the odometer altercation purposes.
I never used it but it won't have all the functions of OBDeleven for sure.
i looked up their site and they say it supports live date but i think its just for the engine. Good to detect a non working air flow senser for example but not for reading live data in every moudle that the car has so no it will not work.
Hi i need to change millage on Citroën c1 from 2021 Can i do that with tjat tester..?
No it cannot change mileage. Here is odometer tool: bit.ly/ancel-odometer
What about autel mx808 can it detect the original mileage and how can I do that? Thank you.
Yes and here is how you do it explained: czcams.com/video/Jmqgt4VHSqs/video.html&t

@@iamcarhacker thank you
@@iamcarhacker I checked my modules but no option for mileage .. do you have telegram ?
Is there anyway to check if a car has had its mileage blocked
I don't know about any way that would tell you for sure, only speculations with VIN check etc..
hi bro what is the best scanner for car better than thinkdiag 2 please?
Than you have to pick handheld scanner, like Launch 431 or something similiar: amzn.to/46ZH0IG
Great vid but do you know a good OBD2 app that works with any bluetooth dongle ? thinkdiag only works with their hardware
If you mean to verify mileage, the generic app won't be able to do that. You need to check mileage in multiple control modules, but simple OBD2 apps will show you data only from the engine.

Would NOT connect to Iphone. Documentation very poor.
Dont you have an older vid showing carly working when checking mileage?
I have the video on Audi a8 but the mileage on that car wasnt rolled-back so it just red mileage from car

Hi xTool a30 is similiar without subscription
Hello my odometer was rolled back will this give the accurate miles?
You can use it to find real mileage value in some control module if they didn't change all of them. (works best for newer cars, older cars do not have mileage readings in many units).
this covers toyoto?😊
yes
How much this tool
$150 first year than $100/year subscription
@00:40 are there other scanners than thinkdiag2 that can enter multiple control modules?
Alll of them can enter multiple modules to read fault codes. For other functions only Thinkdiag and OBD11
