Do you have one of those $20 obd2 plug in bluetooth dangles? I have one and it's save me a lot of money allowing me to trouble shoot CEL codes.

I bought one similar to this one below a few years ago to check shape of a wave form, didn't need it to be accurate. Also wanted to see frequency for cross reference with TRMS multimeter when checking and adjusting cassette deck's speed. They both showed same frequency so I was able to get under 2Hz deviation at 3kHz signal.

I bought a UScope from aeswave. I have used it a lot yet. Seems well built and can handle a wide variety of tasks.

I'm no expert but I think for automotive work you usually want two channels or more to look at the relationship between command and result. Timing etc..

I have an inexpensive single channel scope and it's very useful. Two channel would be nice but not really necessary. Uscope from AESwave

Also interested in this answer. A Uscope is attractive to me but between cost and preferring a scope with 2+ channels, i've held off

I have the Uscope from AES Wave as well as a Thinkcar four channel scope that works with my Thinktool Pros and Launch X431 scanners. The Thinkcar scope is kind of expensive though.
Here is what several of the YT mechanics that I follow use and really like and it's pretty cheap for a two-channel scope.
