    Check engine light is on. Taking my car to the shop to just find out what a code means gets expensive. Can I just buy a standard code reader or do I need a special one for a 2000 Saab Viggen? Thanks

    Hi, I currently have an ODBII reader for my car which has been useful on a few occasions with generic errors and resetting them. I was wondering if anyone can recommend a decent OPCOM reader as I like to be able to interrogate the fault codes a little further (only generic faults show up on...

    Anyone on here any experience of the Gendan DTC scan tool, the GCR25, on sale now for £60? On the face of it it looks to be a really useful bit of kit, but is it worth paying the premium over their standard code reader (£27) for the live data function, or is it better to go for the...
