Very happy with this scan tool. I first became aware of xtools due to a great review from YouTuber that I like. I’ve owned several scan tools over the years (former mechanic now wrenching part time) and this is the best I’ve used. This replaced my Autel mx 900. It’s an upgrade in every way. It’s super fast, the bidirectional features are fantastic. Excellent interface. I had a bit of trouble initially getting it to register and download updates but the customer service was great and got me set up in no time. I haven’t tried the ecu coding yet but very happy and the price is right. Even price independent I think it’s one of the best you can get, best I’ve used anyway.

This scanner is amazing. Especially for DIYer like me. It’s fast and reliable. I would definitely recommend this unit to anyone looking for a good cost efficient scanner

I was a bit hesitant about the price at first, but it’s honestly worth every penny. It’s way faster than those cheap Bluetooth dongles I’ve used before, and the screen is big and easy to read even in the garage. The best part is that you don’t have to spend half your time on YouTube looking up codes because the tool itself explains what’s going on. I already used it to register a new battery and reset the oil life after a DIY oil change, and it worked perfectly. If you like maintaining your own vehicles and want something that won’t be outdated in a year, this is the one to get

ADDITIONAL UPDATES! - - I'm again moving my review from an initial "Single Star" (then to "3 Stars") and now to 4 STARS! XTool has been EXTREMELY PROACTIVE in repeatedly reaching out to me and doing one follow up after another to assist me with the various issues I've been facing. So far, I'm EXTREMELY PLEASE with how they are doing everything in their power to resolves the frustrations and misgivings I was experiencing. "Caleigh" (w XTool) has reached out to me on numerous occasions, offering me REAL SOLUTIONS! - - I'm hoping to report again in the near future via another "Updated Review" and move this all the way up to a 5-Star Rating, but so far, XTool has exhibited OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE and follow up! "Thank You", XTool !!! UPDATE!! - - I'm REVISING my initial 1 Star Review, up to 3 Stars, and may raise it even higher!! XTool staff have been extremely proactive and professional in the way the have reached out to me in order to resolve the issues I brought up. I will continue to work with them, but so far I am VERY SATISFIED as to how they're trying to make things right. Time will tell, but for now I did want upgrade my review due to how they QUICKLY REACHED OUT TO ME, and expressed their desires to correct the issues I've outlined. KUDOS to XTool so far, and "THANK YOU!!" I just received this unit 2 weeks ago (April 12th, 2026), and was busy with other things and didn't get around to even opening up the box until several days later. It was then that I discovered I'd been sent a USED UNIT, as it already had a user name, and a user email (which I CAN'T ERASE and put in mine without knowing the password the original owner put in), AND the unit (and subsequently the Subscription) was activated on January 17th of this year!! Secondly, this unit (as others have noted) is CLUNKY and not real intuitive. (I have a $40 Ancel scanner that I purchase via Amazon many years ago, and while not bi-directional, is far easier to use, and I've NEVER gotten a "Failed to Communicate" message from it, which I've already received numerous times with the D7S unit.) Not only did this unit FAIL in its claimed capabilities (despite numerous attempts, I was unable to do a "Relearn" on a new Crankshaft Position Sensor for our 2005 Buick Century w/the 3.1 l engine), but I was PERPETUALLY getting messages of "Refer to Service Manual" I guess that means I paid $400 for it to tell me to go buy the dedicated Service Manual for whatever vehicle I was working on. I also was frustrated by the fact that the "Auto Scan" feature is far from one, (again, my $40 Ancel scanner has never failed me in this task), as in just attempting to "Auto Scan" post plugging into the OBD-II Port for our '12 Highlander (standard V6 engine) the D7S kept giving me a "Failed to Communicate" message. It was only after I FIRST inputted into the scanner that it was a Toyota I was working on, did it recognize the vehicle. I had also wanted to reprogram keys for my '03 BMW 530i, and the wife's '12 Highlander, but after reading the comments here from others that have tried and failed, I'm not even going to bother before returning this unit. MASSIVELY DISAPPOINTED with the inability of this scanner to perform the functions it claimed its capable of, its perpetual "Refer to Service Manual" messages, and its inability to recognize the vehicle its been plugged in to! I'm also VERY UNHAPPY that I received a USED UNIT, with the subscription having been activated some 3 months ago by whoever the previous owner/user of this D7S was!! (Btw, one last note... though "tolerable" and not a "deal breaker" its obvious that whoever programmed this scanner, did not speak English as their native language, which one will note with the spelling errors for basic English words).

Great tool can do a lot just wish it would stop saying my car doesn't support that option wish I would of known sooner about all the options I need to utilize but won't function for me

**UPDATE: No customer service!!! I want to program the keys on my 17 Traverse, the vide and other info sys this unit does it . My unit is missing the icon that will complete the key programming. It is up to date on software. I have tired several times to get in touch with XTool, there has been no answer to my emails and the phone system is a joke, they put you on hold for about 5 mins and then ask you to leave a message, and no one returns your call. Customer support is nonexistent at this point even though there is a 3 year guarantee!!! I down graded then to a 2 for their customer support. I just got the unit and I am already more impressed as to how it functions over the the D7.. I had the D7 but it started having issues so I returned it and bought this one, it was on sale. This unit has 3 years of software updates, that will save some money . The hardware seems to be the same as the D7 but the S model has different software and also comes with a USB port. The software on the D7S is way better than the D7. It is faster and more intuitive. It just runs so much smoother than its predecessor. Also the USB port allows for devices to be added, like a borescope. When connected to the vehicle it seems to run faster as well. The amount of functions it can do is awesome. A DIY mechanic will be able to use this a lot. Hopefully this model will be more durable than the last, only time will tell. I'm hoping they will add more attachments to make this device even better, wouldn't mind a wireless adapter to make it like the W model. Ill update this in 6 months to let you know how it goes over a longer period of time.

I bought this November 2023 and it paid for it self the first year. Mostly used only my daughters 2017 Subaru legacy. I programmed two new keys and replaced her rear brakes, both of which requires use of the tool. Since then I've diagnosed an issue with a coil pack and a few other random check engine issues, as well as used this when changing her trans fluid and brake fluid. I also used it on my 2010 Chevy avalanche to turn off the DOD/afm lifter feature. It's always got updates for various vehicles ready to download. It's basically an android tablet underneath the xtool software, has internet browser real search trouble codes or watch a how to. Easy to use. Very thick and durable seeming, though I haven't dropped mine yet. Get it, it will save you money in the long run. Update: 2/24/2026 Still working, still coming in handy, still getting updates. I brought the tool with me on a family trip from the PNW to Texas, driving my Avalanche. I kept having an error pop up regarding stabilitrak and ABS shutting off. The scanner told me what to look for, and I had the needed wire ready shipped to destination and waiting by the time I arrived. There might be things a more expensive one can do that this one can't, but for the price, and as a DIY guy, its been great.
