A Professional Automotive Mechanic reviews a scan tool that is the higher version of the previous Ultimate scan tool which has even more features.
In this video and per your request I review the Xtool D8 in a follow up to the previous Ultimate scan tool video when I reviewed the D7.

in addition to the D8 review, I also update my recommendation for the ultimate basic scan tool from the Bluedriver to the Xtool A30, A30D and A30M.
I work on cars professionally and I deal with OEM level scan tools. Aftermarket scan tools are plenty and available however which one is the best for DIY mechanics? As I test more and more scan tools I will update my recommendations for the Ultimate scan tool.

What about access to wiring diagrams?
I want to buy the d8 I see they have 2 different prices on Amazon. 1 for 700 one for 600. Could anyone confirm if they are the same. I dont want a fake one
I noticed in special functions that Mercedes was not listed in all the car models. Did I miss it, or is it just very limited with Mercedes functions ? Example – Key programming. Thanks
Would be great if each device would have an access door to add more memory…..
Thanks for your introductions, I got the D7 but on the back it states P700 ????
How well will they work on an older car like a 2004 Toyota Camry? Will these be worth investing in compared to a $200-$300 scanner?
Prices of each ?
Great video, I'd enjoy watching a more in-depth review on the special function differences between the A30, A30D, and A30M. For the very basic DIYer, is the extra $100 worth it?
What cheaper OBD2 scan tool can we use that will put our rear brakes into service mode? We just want to change our rear brakes without having to go through the manual procedure way? 2021 RAV4.
Does the D8 have the ability to Resync camshaft sensor for a 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche? Also, can you read individual voltage on traction battery cells for 2010 Lexus RX 450h?
Can the A30M program keys?
