Today we are doing an in depth review of the Topdon Topscan lite. This product was sent to us by the folks at Topdon and asked if we would do a review of it. We walk you through the app features and test many of its claimed functions on several different vehicles including: steering angle reset, battery registration, parking brake reset, active tests, live data, graphing, abs bleeding, and much more. We also compare several data points to what is given on a much more expensive scan tool. We give you the pros and cons of the tool as well as our overall thoughts of the product and the company.

Excellent review. I just purchased this yesterday from Amazon and was looking for videos about it's functionality. Yours is the best I have watched.

This looks much more useful than OBDlink MX+ and BlueDriver so far.

Great video, guys! Any thoughts on the Topdon Topscan Pro?

Would love to see a comparison between this and the xtool anyscan A30m . The topscan is cheaper upfront, but the A30m is supposed to be the same with free lifetime updates.

Do you guys have any experience with the Pro version of this tool? Does the pro offer $40 more in value? Thank you!

I haven’t seen anyone try the key immobilizer feature. Does it work?

Is the software useable after one year? Is it just one year of updates?

DO NOT RECOMMEND. Only one free year of app use. Then a yearly charge afterward, in order to use the device app! Device has no display or keyboard built-in for use without a subscription.
