Great Scanner
I heard horror stories about updating the software so I’ve chosen not to do so. Other than that it’s a great scanner that goes into depth and detail more than an a cheap scanner. I have a 2002 Mercedes Benz ML (W163) and a 2017 Kia Sorento and was able to use the scanner for both vehicles. It’s fast, reliable, and easy to use.

The Affordable Bi-Directional Scanner Every Mercedes. Sprinter, & Smart Car Owner Needs to Wrench
Purchased an old W220 S500 which showed no “check engine” light, SRS, or ABS faults on the dash. I did have some marker lights and suspension messages in the instrument cluster.Being that I had a wonderful BlueDriver scanner which has worked wonders as a bi-directional scanner for my GM vehicles, I figured it would be great for my Benz... nope. The BlueDriver couldn’t communicate, though their website confirms it worked.Started following the different Benz forums to find the best scanner. What I learned, the Mercedes Star software was the best solution, but good luck finding one for under $2k. Then I looked into the Autel high-end versions, but didn’t want to spend $800+ and pay annual fees.I came across this Foxwell on sale during Christmas time on Amazon. I discovered it was bi-directional and came Pre-loaded with the Make of choice with the option to buy other brands (BMW, VW/Audi, and more). Best it didn’t have an annual fee to keep it working.Once received I was able to diagnose the 60ish modules my 2006 S500 had, learning that I had about 30 faults... yikes! No wonder I got a great deal on this car. Anyway, I was able to reference each code on different Mercedes forums and started tackling each problem.The biggest issues with these older W220 Mercedes are: Airmatic pumps, airmatic shocks, and the horrible PSE door locking system. This scanner told me what soft close doors that malfunctioned, that my PSE unit in the trunk was bad, that my trunk opening unit had a short and so on. Best of all, the bi-directional tests allowed me to see each modules of my air suspension and door locking and run tests. Unreal!I’m a weekend warrior who enjoys wrenching. I’m not an expert but love that we can all wrench on anything with a scanner like this and YouTube. There’s a reason $85k+ 10 year old + cars are worth next to nothing, due to the complexities of over engineered knuckleheads in Germany. Go out and buy an old Benz, wrench on it and take something that was once amazing and bring it back to life for 5% -10% of the original MSRP.I highly recommend this scanner for its capabilities of looking into the specific modules (bi-directional) at an affordable price. Though this scanner is amazing, you can’t damage your car if you don’t know what your doing. Don’t expect to reprogram keys, or adjust complex systems like the Mercedes Star scanner. It’s something anyone can use and save thousands from the dealerships.

Not bad.
Can scan all the modules in Mercedes W164 ML 350.It can show live data, erase codes.Very slow to scan, good for occasional use.

Cheap unit that requires software you dont want on your computer
This has to be one of the poorest designed units. Not to mention that the software is really problematic for your computer with the programs it unnecessarily loads, and then does not uninstall all of itself. In fact, on 3 systems tested, it left the majority program installed.There are some usability issues:you HAVE to have an internet connection to use the unit (software requires you to log into their website first) and get your data and updates. No thanks.It installs Microsoft Edge- even if you have it disabled.The data port on the side for a microxd card (required) is darn near impossible to use. You have to remove the rubber shock cover to get to it.The software keeps wanting to use a different drive on my computer to try to write to and accessing the mem card on the unit requires that you disconnect any hardwired ethernet connections- it traffics a bunch of data needlessly over wireless.With all of the privacy concerns regarding software out of China, they need to go the extra mile to make sure to be transparent, and make sure all software is uninstalled correctly. Some of these modules I have no idea why they are here. And 140megs software for this little device to operate? Very worrisome. And forcing you to give them your vehicle, VIN, street address, phone, purchase date, etc just to get in touch with tech support? No thank you. Im uninstalling, putting it on ebay for sale, and hope to recover some of the money.The application for this is a 2008 GL550, and I needed it to perform the automatic adjustment on the airmatic suspension, which it could not do the auto feature- it overheats the pump after adjusting for 15-20mins. So, i set it manually- which worked but reveals it isnt able to communicate fully to the computer like the dealer module. So, still have to take it to the dealer to get it to adjust the last few mm needed. Its close enough to drive anyway. For that it did save a tow bill. But there is no way I would buy from this company again.

works with my 2019 mercedes sprinter 4x4
I bought an open box one directly from amazon June 2024. Worked without needing any updates on my 2019 sprinter 4x4 3.0D. I did have to manually enter the vin. My swivel seat cut the the power wire to my seat airbag when something was accidently left under the seat. When I fixed the wire, SRS fault happened. Dealer wanted $250 to clear the code. This device was ~$100 with tax and cleared the code. It is small so I will keep it with me in the van case I get warning or fault in a remote area. I am sure there are more advanced and larger ones, but this one did the trick.
