This looks cheap  :o Autel Maxiscan MS509 on Amazon
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Maxiscan-MS509-Autel/dp/B001LHXTO0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1370451952&sr=8-1&keywords=autel


Three questions, chaps.

1. Will it work on a 2.6 Omega?

2. Will it work on a 2003 Corsa 1.2 SXI?

3. How can I tell if it's a cheap copy (fake) that won't work properly?


If all Okay I'll buy one for just over thirty quid. :y :y

Thanks, Henry. It's from Amazon, so if it turns out to be worse than useless they're usually happy to give a refund. :y

I think I'll risk it. :y

All seems well with the car, It did clear the Pre cat codes on the 3.2 but I couldn't get it to work with the 2.2 for some reason. Hard to say if it was a copy or not tbh  :-\

Did you see any anomalies in the videos I haven't got a clue what any of it means, Especially the O2 as the pedal trick did through up some O2 errors codes some months ago TB suggested live date but I don't know what to look for hence the videos  :'( :-\
