I should add that about a month ago I bought a Matco Maxims 3.0 so I can further diagnose things from my couch!

That's just a little less than I paid for my '01 XJ when I bought it several years back. Ha

Cool Tool!!

It was a must in my case. My sons VW has been having a problem with his electric power steering. The new cars have so many sub-level computers(modules) that you have get into to see whats going on.

That's funny.
3X's what I paid for my '00 6 years ago.
But like you said that is cool.

It's already paid for itself. At my son's work he doesn't even turn wrenches anymore, he's become the head diagnostic tech. I don't recall what they had before but it would not do VW's.

If all you needed it for was that VW, a VCDS from Ross-Tech would have been a lot cheaper.

However, since it sounds like you plan to use it on the Jeep too, makes sense.

I think it's great that your son is using it and has advanced at his job because of this tool. I'd buy one myself if I ever start up a side business fixing cars part time out of my garage... have had several people over the years say I should do that since I'm always the one they call on for car advice and repair work.

Been down that path for a couple months, but this gets used every day.

I should add that the company he works for does commercial contracts for dozens of companies so they are always busy.
