Hum isko DZ software pe use kr skte he kyuki I think daigZone pe subscription finish hone ke baad bi all services use kr skte he old version pe. Sir plz reply
this video solved all my questions, thanks
Glad to hear it helped Ignacio, and here is my full review for the Thinkdiag czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html and the Thinkdiag 2 czcams.com/video/rGWSxEXFbOg/video.html Cheers!
Can you still use the dpf regeneration function using history menu? (Assumed that you pick the vehicle of choice)
Hi Tran! You should be able to fully access all functions for that vehicle model that was selected at the start (just remember the only difference as explained on the video is that you will no longer receive updates) Cheers!
Thanks for your review Sir. Let ask a question, it is possible to relearn vehicle or idle learning after stop subscription?
Greeting from Indonesia😊
You're welcome Arief! As explained on the video, the bi-directional and other advanced features work on single car model before and after the expiration date (and the standard OBD2 diagnostics and functions work for all cars before and after the expiration date). And here is my follow up video comparing Thinkdiag 1 Vs Thinkdiag 2 so you can choose the one you need czcams.com/video/rGWSxEXFbOg/video.html Cheers!
When installation of new ecu bmc and ignition of a vehicle can this device change the vin number too match the car its installed on so when goes in for services dealership/firestone etc they dont have any mix ups
Hi Mayhem! It does supporting ECU / PCM Programming / Coding, here is my full review for it czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html But to ensure full compatibility, Thinkcar accepts VIN numbers if you need them to confirm if you will be able to access the function you need before you buy. Cheers!
did you try manually inputting the vin number if it works?
Hi! The autovin function is able to read the VIN so that part works however as you saw on the video it does not let you access the vehicle via it, same with typing the Vin, the device will recognize it but it will not take you the next step if the module has expired. Use the history function I showed on the video to access the manufacturer module. Cheers!
After subscription, does it still work as a regular obd2/eobd code reader?
Hi SB! As shown on the video, you should be able to fully access all functions for the vehicle model that was selected at the start (just remember the only difference as explained on the video is that you will no longer receive updates) And here is my full review for it czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html so you can see the rest of it's features.

This video is very important
Sir I have it after one year it not working again. I think after one year I can't get new update this one the app just go off
Sir I have it after one year it not working again. I think after one year I can't get new update this one the app just go off
Hi Victor! As shown on the video the updates will stop after 1 year (unless you re-new the subscription) but the scanner will continue to work (functions shown on the video) Cheers!
This video is very important (A MUST WATCH) You explain very clearly, and you have explained all the questions that I had, so thank you very much Sir. I definitely won’t be buying this diagnostic tool. After 1 year when the subscription expires you’re pretty much damned to hell by the manufacturer.
You're welcome White! Ah remember as shown on the video, once the subscription expires, you can still access all functions for that vehicle model that was selected at the start (The main difference as explained on the video is that you will no longer receive updates) In addition you can still use standard OBD2 diagnosis for all car makes. Here is my full review for the Thinkdiag czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html and here is my full my review for the Thinkdiag 2 czcams.com/video/rGWSxEXFbOg/video.html if you want to compare it Cheers!
@@AlexAutoFun Hi there Alex, yes I’ve seen the videos. And again excellent explanation. You explain things very well, a natural gift I guess.
I wonder, can you recommend any Bi-Directional scan tools that allows you to keep the software’s and its functionality. Keep meaning, everything is there to use from before your update expiry date, but you can’t get any future updates. Meaning, I’m happy not to get any future updates as long as the scan tool works for whatever it worked before the expiry date, in the year I bought the diagnostic tool.
I do have a Delphi setup that allows access to most vehicle software’s from my purchase date, which was in 2017, so basically it can’t read and access later vehicle models after 2017.
@@WhiteDoveEngland Thank you White, I appreciate that! Both the Thinkdiag and Thinkdiag 2 will allow you to keep using them (again without updates after the expiration). However remember the Thinkdiag locks to the first vehicle make selected, so the advanced functions only work on that vehicle make (normal OBD2 functions function for all vehicles) Here is a good choice if you want to work on multiple vehicles makes czcams.com/video/XtsESLy9Zmo/video.html and here is another one that included free lifetime updates czcams.com/video/f-YQNNG-Wt8/video.html if you only need it for subset of vehicles makes and another with free lifetime updates czcams.com/video/G1df-U6CW5A/video.html Cheers!
@@AlexAutoFun Thank You Sir, i will check the videos much appreciated.
@@WhiteDoveEngland You're welcome my friend!
After 1 year are you able to choose another cars to scan for error codes including ABS system of the car?
Hi Scott! As explained on the video, the bi-directional and other advanced features work on single car model before and after the expiration date (but the standard OBD2 diagnostics and functions work for all cars before and after the expiration date). Which is the reason I recommend a different scanner like this one czcams.com/video/d1wFA3gsq20/video.html if you plan to use it with several different car brands. Cheers!
Hi Everybody! The Thinkdiag just got an update, it now comes in a "All Software" Version and a "Single Software" version. Link to the scanner in the video description. The Single version is the one shown on this video, it supports many makes and models but it will be limited to One Make once you start using it just like shown on the video. The "All Software" allows you diagnose all Makes (so it does not limit itself to one Make only), based on what I'm hearing it's possible the "Single" version will eventually be discontinued and the "All Software" version will be the only one available, if that does happen, I will update this comment. Cheers!
So essentially after the 1 year you can use it as normal on your vehicle without any limitations? It’s only if you want to add more vehicles that you really need to pay?
Hi Edson! As shown on the video, you should be able to fully access all functions for the vehicle model that was selected at the start (just remember the only difference as explained on the video is that you will no longer receive updates) And here is my full review for it czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html so you can see the rest of it's features.

I need to re-callibrate my hvac controller head, which operates the blend doors on 2008 Saturn Vue. Will this unit do this?
Hi User! Yes the scanner does support GM vehicles (Saturn was a subsidiary of GM). You can see that when I show the vehicle coverage in my full review here czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html However actually being able to learn or calibrate a specific component varies from car to car (vehicles have different levels of control, some allow you to active more things than others) Thinkcar does accepts VIN numbers if you want them to check if it will be able to access the specific function you need. Cheers!
Hi,
Is the Thinkdiag capable of doing fuel injector relearning?
Hi Jan! Yes the Thinkdiag supports Injector coding. Here is my full review for it czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html you can actually see the module when I go over the service functions at aprox the the 2:58 mark. Just remember that actually being able to learn a specific component varies from vehicle to vehicle (vehicles have different levels of control, some allow you to active more things than others) Thinkcar does accepts VIN numbers if you want them to check if it will be able to access the specific function you need.

I need to know what is thae different between thinkdiag & diagzone i think the diag zone interface is better and easy from thinkdiag?? Also what is the official one from both?? Thanks
Hi Mohamend! The Thinkcar is meant to work with the ThinkDiag software. I would not recommend using a different software other than what Thinkcar calls for to avoid issue with the scanner or warranty. And here is the full review so you can see the rest of it's features czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html Cheers!
Do they have a 1-year comprehensive subscription for all makes/models/services? In other words, do they have a 1-year subscription that covers all makes/models/brands/services without having to pay for an individual brand or service? If so, how much is it for users in USA?
Hi Murad! Ah if you need all makes, modules and services then you will need one like this one where they are included as one single package czcams.com/video/9qwJlUEWN9A/video.html or this one czcams.com/video/d1wFA3gsq20/video.html Cheers!
The new ones in the UK appear to have all makes and models unlocked as standard.
The pro (2 years) and the elite (3 years) definitely do come with all brands and models included.
Hi Harry! Interesting, please let us know if you are able to access and use all makes and models. The USA one shows all makes and models (even after you select the car makes you want to use it with) So this give the appearance that all models and models are unlocked during the 1yr period but once you actually select a different mode (from the one originally chosen) that is when the scanner will prompt you to add the additional module via a separate purchase. Cheers! @@TheDajoca
Does this support Ford Transit 2007 mk7 model? If yes ill buy it soon.
Hi! it supports the major OBD-II communication protocols (ISO 14230-4 KWP2000, 9141-2 IOS, 14229 UDS, Can Bus 15765-4, SAE J1850 VPM & PMW) So at long as your car supports one of those you should be ok. And if you also need CAN FD support, then you would want this one amzn.to/49NtiKy (however CAN-FD is much newer so I usually only see it on very new vehicles) And here is my full review for the Thinkdiag czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html so you can see the rest of it's features. Cheers!
Is there any issue if you go for an extended period of time after expiration? Let say you went 2 years without renewing subscription?
Hi Glenn! The expiration does not carry over, so you can renew the subscription for the updates at any time without having to back pay for the years where it was not under subscription. Cheers!
@@AlexAutoFun you should do specific function videos using the Thinkdiag. Like programming your key fob to open all doors on first click, instead of just the drivers door. Programing new key fobs. disabling control of a sunroof by the keyfob, perform a smooth running test, electronic compression test, etc.
Hi Glenn! Yeah that is a good idea, will keep this in mind if I do get a hold of a vehicle needing programming. Cheers! @GlennLaguna
@@AlexAutoFun No problem Al"ee"x! Sincerely, Glenn, not Gleen.
@GlennLaguna omg sorry about that! That is the 2nd time autospell done me wrong with your name lol
Does it read hybrid batteries of honda civic hybrid 2007 also and what is the cost of this obd2 ?
Hi Naeem! You can see if you vehicle is included on the list of covered vehicles in my full review for this scanner czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html However the actual PID's you will be able to read will depend on your car depending on which sensors it has and which of those sensors can communicate to external tools. ThinkCar does accepts VIN #'s if you want them to check if it will be able to access the function you need before buying. And if you like to check current pricing, I placed the link in the video description. Cheers!
can you recalibrate power steering on a cobalt
Hi William! Correct, it does support SAS, you can see that option on my full review here czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html at the 3:35 mark. And ThinkCar also accepts VIN numbers if you need them to confirm if you will be able to access the function you need before you buy. Cheers!

How much is the subscription amount
Hi Lijujoseph! It varies depending on if it's on sale, you use a discount code, what region of the world you are located in and also on the type of subscription (as shown on the video, there is Manufacturer level and also Service level subscription). However if has to eye ball it, what I normally see is the subscription costs about half the price a brand new ThinkDiag (link to the adapter in the video description) Cheers!

Seems like it would be cheaper to just buy a new one with the 1 year free full access. If i use this device on 3 different car brands after the 1 year.. I would have to pay more than the original price i paid for the device.
Hi Conker! Yes It probably would if you need special functions for all 3 cars (remember standard diagnostics remain functional for all cars after the expiration date). But I do recommend for folks looking to work on multiple cars to get their larger scanner here amzn.to/467Lmwl that will support them without the limits of the ThinkDiag (since it's really meant to be a budget scanner) In the end I think the larger screen, additional features make sense to skip the smaller Thinkdiag for those working on several cars. I cover this in more detail in my original review czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html And I have more scanner reviews on my channel in the playlist "OBD2 Scanner Reviews" if you like to compare them. Cheers!
Clear DTC doesn't work for me after expiration 😢
Hi Edward! Clearing DTC's works past the the expiration date. However keep in mind that in some cases a DTC cannot be cleared if the vehicle has not been fixed (or sometimes it will only clear for a bit before returning). If you are still having trouble I would also recommend contacting for Thinkcar tech support, they may be able to walk you thru some troubleshooting steps. And please keep us posted on your findings. Cheers!
Tuan, punya saya berakhir setelah 2 tahun pemakaian, dan cara update berbayar nya bagaimana cara nya?
Mohon penjelasan nya.
Hi Tenknisi! You can use the "Renew" option shown on the video (under the make model) if renewing the model, or the "Renew" option under the Maintenance Modules as shown on the vide if renewing the a service module. You can also renew using the ThinkStore option (the 2nd icon on the bottom that looks like shopping cart) Cheers!
❤❤🙏🙏
Thank you M Virdi! 🤙😁
I found that renewing costs as much as a new tool. So I got a new tool that included a tpms tool subscription and a new full featured think tool. To me that really stinks because I'm not a mechanic. I just happen to need to scan more than one car and many different vehicles codes.
Hi Federico! Yes, if you need to scan multiple vehicles (advanced diagnostics, TCM, ABS, IMMO, BMS etc.) then a different tool makes more sense from a cost stand point. But if you only need to scan (basic OBD2 diagnostics, live data, DTC's, IM status, etc) the Thikdiag can still do this for multiple vehicles (in addition the 1 vehicle of choice for advanced diagnostics). So you want to consider the number of vehicles you need to access and the level of access you need have to decide if the Thinkdiag makes sense for you or not. Same with renewing the tool, it's really only needed if you need updates which as explained on this video, not all folks may need (and in those cases you can save money by not renewing) And here is my full review where I cover this and the rest of it's features czcams.com/video/Yy21TsscA_c/video.html Cheers!
The mucar bt200 says it has lifetime free updates for around 120 brands the only thing u have to pay after 1 year was the services like brake bleed , oil reset etc. i ordered one , waiting for it to be shipped

I was looking forward to this tool but I need one for the shop so that I can scan multiple cars, any recommendations? (Trying to turn my tablet to a scan tool)
@@miguelarmenta5703 Hi Miguel! Yes for a shop environment I recommend something larger like this one czcams.com/video/d1wFA3gsq20/video.html The Thinkdiag is more aimed at the entry level home mechanic.

Hi Kinene! I would start by checking that the ECU is able to communicate (sometimes the a failed ECM or fuse has failed preventing communication) Here is the device I use to check for communication and troubleshooting of potential suspect ECM's / PCMs czcams.com/video/QAwpySOMQUI/video.html Cheers!
Thanks for the feedback but it happens on all vehicles
@kinenesharif Hi Kinene! If you have confirmed your ECM works, I would recommend contacting Thinkcar for tech support, they maybe able to walk you thru some troubleshooting steps. Cheers!
No tech support.. if you have trouble, may need to toss it.. absolute garbage
You know these cant even change the AlphNumeric TPMS codes on your ECU to match new ones in your wheels. Their TPMS Scanners can convieniently only program their own over prices sensors. Their tech support cant even properly read emails taking in only what suits them. These units are complete rubbish if you need teck support or anything complicated.
Wrong. Used loads of times on Hondas and toyotas to manually change tpms sensor ids. Learn how to use it
Learn How to Use it? Why do you think i contacted their tech Support? They said the G2 TPMS Unit is only capable of directly programming their own sensors? Oh right they must be lying....@@geerhead
I used mine consistently on a daily basis for a year. Then subscription ended i renewed and continue to use it daily. I chose the all makes and models subscription since day 1 and has never failed to work. Its almost comical when i see other techs with their snap on scanner not be able to connect to a car cuz theirs is outdated and costs big chunk of money to update each time. I press one button at no cost and mines updated and reads the car they couldn't.along with having all bidirectional scan tool functionality as a high dollar scan tool .Have used to pull door keypad codes on fords, used for programable module installation process, and manually changed tpms sensor ids along with other special functions as well

Here is another alternative if you need access all car makes all the time czcams.com/video/d1wFA3gsq20/video.html or this one if you need access to a subset of cars brands czcams.com/video/f-YQNNG-Wt8/video.html Cheers!
