Hi everyone!
Here is a video that has been requested by some of my followers and subscribers.
In this this video I will take you through the tools I have, from scanners to programming tools.
Nothing special, and not a big collection, but they have been helping me to get jobs done.

Like always, thank you for watching!
Everyone of your videos are amazing, i am in awe of your complete technical knowledge, and the way you have time whilst fixing someone's car to go through your thaught process , and tell us exactly why and how you are working your way through it .you are an absolute genius, and me as an outsider to the automotive trade is astonished at everything you do , I never knew you did this in your spare time , and that you work nights when not doing this , you are a very very hard working man , down to earth . I'm hooked on your videos . And thank you for everything you do on your channel. And sharing with us the tools you use . You are Amazing.thank you .
Hi
Yes, this is a part time... Thank you very much for your so kind words!
Really appreciated!
👍👍👍👍
Your channel considered full free course .. thanks a lot. . Go ahead
😊👍👍👍
That was nice.
Waiting for to see fresh collection again. Thats very encouraging and informative.
Yes... it has changed slightly after this...
👍👍👍
Wow! For a guy who does auto diag as a hobby you have an incredible collection of gear.Back to more of your vids,i'm enjoyingi
tecnaman
And I have added some more since this video... lol
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for the video. Yes it's true that hundreds of results can be found for these tools by searching on google, but the problem is that for someone new to subject it is frustratingly difficult to know where to buy from, what version to buy, whether to buy a cheaper clone or an original (in fact even how to know what is a clone and what is original), what extras are needed etc etc. If you did a 'buyers guide' type video for some of the more widely used scanners (e.g Op-com & Clip) where you give more detailed info on the above questions, I am sure that such a video would be very welcome and help maintain and widen your audience. Thanks
Hi
Yes, I understand the frustration... I have been there, well I still to honest...
I would say, genuine tools is always the best choice... but can be very expensive very quickly... specially if you are only a car enthusiastic...
I will keep that in mind, and will plan a video for something like that...
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
👍
@@LMAutoRepairs Thank you. :)
Great videos. It's nice to see the tools people use
This is a bit outdated now...
Need to make a new one...😊
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Nice bit of kit
😊
Your video is a testament to the case for auto manufacturer's to move to a common standard like ethernet to connect to vehicle computers and analyze and program them. Unfortunately each manufacturer has come up with their own unique system and even they change them periodically necessitating a new "device" in order to communicate with them. A sad state of affairs.
Robert Bakley
Indeed...
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
The Peugeot Citroen tool is called diagbox, has pp200 and lexia, a 2 in one.
Correct!
Thank you for watching!
Yellow cable is called enet, only uses Ethernet, and f series. Can be used on esys or ista
Once again, correct!
Thank you for this video
Thank you sir for increasing my shopping wish list again. Nice assortment you have there .
New Level Auto
Thank you for watching... still a modest collection though...
lmsvvavr I currently have factory tools for Honda, Ford , Gm ,Chrysler, Toyota, Kia/Hyundai, BMW. AutoLogic, Abrites (real), Autel old and new, Launch Pad2, VCDS, I have an Orange Box , VVDi workhorse , and probably too much to remember, but you have things I don't have, and some I don't need because we don't have the vehicles here in the states. But for a part timer you have a great collection
New Level Auto is that all you have Keith I would list out mine but I don't have the time I suppose one day you'll catch up😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁 the only one I will list is I have the main dealer Maserati it's really good 😁😁😁😁😁
bodgit and leggit garage lies ... it must be lies 😔😢 they won't send me one of those
New Level Auto it's not what you know it's who you know lol
Crazy how much kit is required to fix cars. Nice vid mate
Dear sir.I really enjoyed this video.superb collection sir.thankyou most kindly for doing this.godbless

The fiat cable will only do certain fiats, you need the adapters too.
Nice collection, i'm almost there to!
ionut Pacurar
Thank you!
Can you do a similar video again? I believe in 5 years you have changed some of them or even got new ones.
Hi
Indeed...
I will plan something...
I have however, made one for Patreon couple of years ago...
👍👍👍
You are the best thanks
😊
Thanks!
Feliz Ano Novo.

Hello!
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Which is your most loving tool and which one you recommend for beginners
Hi
I would say a multimaker one...
At this time I had the DS708...
Something that theoretically can read a vast array of cars...
My opinion...
Thank you for watching!
thanks for your time nice video
hben red
Thank you for watching!
The name of the blue and yellow is actia Xs, uses multidiag. I’m guessing your vas 5054a is actually a vas 6154 head, is the cable a vcx nano. And it’s not not ‘digital’ can, it’s dual line can.
Actia xs sold after this video was recorded... lol
Hi there, i'm relatively new subscriber and already Huge fan - awesome job and great lessons.
I have two questions:
1.didn't get your name yet.
2.i owned a few peugeot and recently bought a citroen 2012 - for more advance features would you recommend to use an Autel or the diagbox is the only solution ( will a clone work for calibrating and programming stuff?)
Thank you again for your time and effort making these videos.
Hi
My name is Luis.
Definitely Diagbox... clone does pretty much everything, however, being a 2012 flashing is all online...
Other than that, Autel is quite comprehensive on PSA... and will give you the option to work on other cars...
It is a personal choice really...
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
@@LMAutoRepairs Thank you Luis

Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Thank you for sharing, just wondering what is your full time job? You do the car repair for part time job and you this kind of stuff very well.👍
Thanks!
Yes, I do this on my free time...

Hi which tools would I need to reprogram an ECU on a 2004 Vauxhall Meriva? I watched your video on it and it was good, but it just mentioned Vaux Com software but what leads etc would I need to plug into my car or can an OBD reader suffice? And where is the best place to get Vaux Com? Many Thanks Brian

For fiat you should install MES MultiEcuScan

Thank you... I have that installed already... should have mentioned it in the video, my bad...
Thank you for watching!
lmsvvavr No problem, we are here to help each other. Thank you for passing us your knowledge

Definitely!
hey, thanks for all your info shared, very helpful
🤗🤗🤗
An advice please 😁 I want to buy a multi vehicle scan tool ≤ 300 £, and I saw iCarsoft CR PRO with lot of good reviews, some are saying that is the best choise quality-price ratio now. Do you know something about it, have you ever tried? I want to use it for my current need - Opel (not Vauxhall, idk if there are/aren't major differences) 2012 year, A17DTS engine code for delete DTCs like lambda probe faults, oil changes, spark plug faults, but on the other hands, I'd like to be able to use it in the near future in case I'll change the car. If you suggest something else under or equal with this price, please reply
Thank you ! 🙂
Hi
I would probably look for something different...
However, I never used that tool, so can't really comment...
For 300 you can definitely get something reasonable...
Look on the launch and foxwell range...
Not sure what is available on the Autel....
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for your efforts and I want to ask you about wow snooper scanner if it good for working again thank you
Never used it... so can't really comment...
Thank you for watching!
Hi, you saved my wife's Peugeot 207 a few weeks ago by helping me out with a wiring issue. Now the front sidelights have failed, which I suspect is related to the marron multiplug. Do you have a fix video showing the wire and fuse that control this circuit? Many thanks, Mike.
mike 69
Hi Mike!
I can have a look at the diagrams...
But I am doing nights this week... remind me Thursday...
Okay mate, thank you.
Hi, just dropping you the reminder! Hopefully nightshifts haven't been too bad.
No worries... they were not that bad...
Just let me know car year, engine, and if you know the RPO as well...
Do you want me to post here the details or you have an email where to send it?
The car is a Peugeot 207 verve 1.4 petrol. It's a 2009 model. I can't find the RPO/DAM number but can let you know the VIN if that will help. I'd rather not post my email on a public forum so I'd appreciate it if you could post a reply here please. Thanks, Mike.
Thats the explanation i needed thanks apreciate your work and sharing great job.That adapter 18:20 comes with xprog or need to order seperate?
You need to buy it separately... but they are relatively cheap...
Thank you for watching and for your comment, really appreciated!
Hi very good videos, im interested in working only in peugeot and citroen wich tool you recommend me? the autel or i can make it only with psa tool lexia?
also can you show us how you weld the chips to the boards in some video? greetings

Hi
If you are mainly working on Peugeot and Citroen, go PSA...
I will keep that in mind, about the video...
Thank you for watching!

Hello, nice set of tools you have there :) Did you obtained them from official retailers, or, since it's your part job, you gone a bit cheap? Just wondering if china is any good, or should I stay away from those cheap options? Thanks in advance :)
Gerardas Nausutis
Hi
First of all thank you for watching!
You are absolutely right, due to this being a part time, most of my tools are under "china" ones... but, there is China and China.... I am quite happy with all my ones...
If you do this for a living though, I would probably try genuine tools... mainly do yo reliabireliability and support...
Hope that helps..
Thanks for lightning quick response, that really calmed me down and encouraged to get my hands on some of these. I guess they should be decent enough for learning purpose. Good luck and keep it up :) I haven't subscribed anything on youtube yet, but it looks like you're one of those worth to follow :)
Gerardas Nausutis
Thanks!
I would appreciate your subscription!
sir i have a question which is not about this topic.
how did you get all the knwoledge about cars and scanners. how did you learn this automotive trade.
Thanks
Hi, I'm a big fan of your channel and your work, the carprog that you have is it original one or clone?
Cheers

Nice collection, what is your carprog's version? What database do you use for wiring diagrams?
Mambre Khachatryan
Hi
Well... That's a tricky one... lol
I have Autodata, and Vivid as my general source for diagrams...
Then I have sedre for Peugeot and Citroën.
Vauxhall up to 2011... the rest I do like everyone else... Google...
Lastly, I just follow the wires... I know... is not the most time effective way...
I am trying to get hold of other systems...
Hope that helps....
Mambre Khachatryan
Ah... carprog version 7.something...
Hi your videos are class keep up the good work, following on from mambre's question is their any where you would recommend to obtain wiring diagrams? I see you said you use autodata but when googling all i can find is a subscription for around £100 a month.

Hi, what are the models of the main latop you use and the smaller one in the box? Thanks.
Hi
The main is an HP Pavilion TX1000, the other ones are Dell Latitude 2100.

Hi, where do you obtain your software from with regards to dealer equipment? Diagbox etc
Kind regards

Hi
They usually came with the tools...
Otherwise Google will help you finding it...
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for your reply, where did you obtain your equipment? As regards to dealer tooling, thanks
Ryan Colley
Hi
I search places like eBay...
Google will also hep you finding places...
I have connections to them... I sometimes use this place... cardiagtool.co.uk (use it at your own risk...)
Thanks for the info! So i assume they are not genuine copys! Thats what i was trying to asertain, do you ever have any issues with programming and flashing using the copy softwares?
Ryan Colley
Correct...
Fingers crossed... so far so good... never had an issue...

Some of the programmers, like K-tag for example, have a menu for bikes...

Your doing things the long winded way. You only need 1 laptop and a plug in optical drive to swap your drives.
I prefer the keep systems independent from each other...
Thank you for watching!
LM Auto Repairs these softwares are kept separate from each other, but good video..
@@jonnybgud0310
I know what you mean... but I prefer this way... so if one laptop fails, I still have all my other systems working... would be different if I had one for all systems...
LM Auto Repairs did you know you can get the vcm2 to work on JLR and Mazda
@@jonnybgud0310
Yes... I actually have a separate system for Mazda and Ford...
I don't do many land Rover... so haven't felt the need to get JLR installed yet...

Hi
It all depends on what you want to do... PP2000 and Clip...
For OEM stuff... then perhaps x-prog... Unless you want to do something really specific...
Hope that helps...
lmsvvavr bro but renault clip is a scanner also, does renault clip cover all key immobilzer ?

what you would choose ?
digiprog You musst have
