OBD2 Scanner LAUNCH CRP129X V3.0 Elite Scan Tool, Upgrade of CRP123X, 12 Reset Services, ABS/SRS/Transmission/Check Engine Car Code Reader, Lifetime Free Update, FCA AutoAuth & Auto VIN, CANFD & DoIP

About two weeks ago I purchased the Launch CPR129X scanner. If you are looking for a scanner for your own use, this might be a good choice. The price varies. It gives a lot of information, and the firmware comes with a free lifetime update. The scanner also connects to Wi-Fi and allows it to download updates. It also has a "Mall", Store, that you can purchase add on functions. I purchased the add on for GM vehicles that adds more function. This was an added $34 purchase on the mall off the scanner. The add-on features are only good for one year. Reports The scanner allows you to input a business or your personal name and your email address. It will email you a nice-looking report with all the details of the scan results. You can take snapshots of any of the scanner screens that can also be sent to your email address. Live Data You can view live data of anything on the OBD2 connection. It will also live stream graft the data, allowing you to view any changes. This data can also be recorded for capturing any changes and saving them for future viewing. These recordings can also be emailed. My only complaint, the product description offers a free lifetime update service. This is for the base level amount of scan data. If you want the full scan capability, you need to purchase additional firmware from their mall. They are only good for a year and after a year, you need to purchase again. It is still cheaper than other scanners and gives the same results as scanners costing way more. All in all I’m happy with this unit. It feels comfortable to use and seems to be made well. I give it a full 5 stars.

Great product, works just as description, smooth operation, fast updates.

The product arrived quickly, and first impressions were excellent. The scanner itself feels like a high quality piece and not flimsy or cheap at all. I was pleasantly surprised it came fully charged, and turned on quickly without being plugged in. Already a major upgrade from my other scanner. I quickly set up the scanner to get on my WIFI, registered my product, and installed all the updates. At this point after all the updates (And my slow internet connection) it had been on for about 45 minutes to an hour...The battery only dropped down to 98%, Great! The unit has a touch screen that feels excellent. Feels like an iPhone and the menu's have the same feel to them. You can use either the touch screen or the buttons on the right for any task. Kind of handy, kind of un-necessary but hey its there and it works. My first task was reading an airbag code on a 2012 Silverado. I plugged the truck in, it read the VIN quickly. After answering a few questions like "Manual Transfer case yes/no" It ran a full vehicle health report. In addition to the airbag code it provided a description of the code and what the error means. B0083 front left impact sensor 1; 0F Sensor Reading Erratic. No need to google what the numbers mean anymore. (Another great feature my old scanner did not have) It also pulled up codes from the past that were fixed....Like an unplugged wheel speed sensor from when i did the brakes a week ago and forgot to plug it in immediately. I was able to clear these from the history, but need to fix the airbag sensor before that one will disappear. The next task was to reset the oil service light on a 2011 Audi A4. It not only did this, but it also reset the Service Interval as well! This was something I thought only an Audi specific tool could do. It not only reset it, but allowed me to extend the service alert to not bug me for another 3 years! (Previously we had to go to Audi 45 minutes away from our house once a year to get the alert reset). This feature was not advertised, but it is possible with this unit.... Color me impressed! So far I am very impressed with the unit and am very happy with my purchase. Well worth the investment if you do as much of your own work on your vehicles as you can. I hate having to take vehicles somewhere for something simple, like brakes, because there is no easy way to retract the electronic E-Brake.

Works as advertised, easy to setup and use, special functions are amazing and the carrying case and rugged exterior make it pretty durable, my only drawback was the long wait times to update on first use, however the compatibility with the majority of vehicles is amazing.

I have to admit I was skeptical that this would work. I purchased it because I have consistently had trouble with the electric parking brake on my wife's car (2019 Mitsubishi Outlander) after doing her brakes and did not want to keep taking it to the dealer. After much searching I found that this one was supposed to work to properly put it in and out of service mode as well as reset parking brake codes and errors. I am happy to say it worked perfectly, within 2 minutes all the error codes were resolved and the parking brake was working as expected. This is now my go to code reader/diagnostic tool for my home use. Highly recommend.

This is definitely a mid level scanner. I am still learning how to use the functions but overall it does what it is intended to do which is read trouble codes, give descriptions of the code, and clear the code. Its touch screen too. Also there is a function that takes you to the internet where you can google the code and play a video on youtube. Which I find pretty amazing. My snap on scanner doesn't even do that. Plus the price of this scanner is very affordable for what you get compare to my outdated snap on scanner. Also there is free updates you can install. When you unbox the item it comes with the obd2 connector cable, the scanner itself, a carrying case and also the charger cable. Instructions aswell. The scanner is charged and it is portable unlike most entry level scanners you need to connect to the cars obd2 port for it to turn on. When you plug this scanner to a car, it automatically VIN codes the vehicle which means it pulls up the car specs automatically for you instead of finding the year, make, model and engine size with a higher end scanner. This has live data stream and freeze frame functions. It also has some capabilities to reset oil life, and tpms for certain type and year of a car. Not all but some. It also have some capability to do electronic parking brake systems when you have a car that has a motorized caliper for the rear braking system. This scanner also has some updates that are paid when you click on the mail icon button. I havent purchased it but may come in handy if you need that special function. But why buy it? When you have the capability to go online when you click on the help button to diagnose the code. I wish they had a button for the internet which would be more convenient. This runs on a wifi system. So you do need to have access to wifi for the internet function. Overall a nice compact portable scanner that does more than a standard scanner. Affordable, has cool features, free updates, touch screen, wifi, good enough battery life, has a charging port. Has a built in protective case in case of drops. Also the brand name is launch which is a great trusted company.

Very surprised on what this can do, I have a pro 3 but wanted something small for quick reads. This thing is very nice and surprisingly fast.. Great job Launch !!

This scanner lasted barely a year before it completely died. It now flashes “100%” and shuts off instantly. That’s it. A $200 tool reduced to a brick. What makes this worse is the total lack of support. Launch Tech USA won’t touch it because the serial number wasn’t made for the U.S. market — even though it was sold on Amazon by “LaunchDirect” as a legitimate, warrantied product. Launch China hasn’t provided any help, and the seller has gone silent. The “multi‑year warranty” advertised with this product is meaningless. You get no updates, no repairs, no replacement, and no accountability. This was a waste of money, and I would not trust this seller or this product again.

وصلني الجهاز ويوجد به مشكلة في جزء من الشاشة لا يستجيب للمس وتم اعادة المنتج

Sehr Guter Diagnosegerät.

Excellent scanner Easy to use fast functions Easy to connect Auto vin works well not on all cars but easily selected manually if necessary It has a lot of functions and it’s compatible with a lot of makes and models so far I used it on bmw ford and Mazda.
