When you get the manufacturers specific stuff its bi-directional meaning you can command the ECM to do things (like turn on the electric engine fan to check it out).
Its more expensive than the $100 one at Walmart for good reason.
Also they are somewhat flexible. I bought my first one from them maybe in 2005 for a Palm (remember those things). Recently I traded in the OBDII adapter for the PALM and got one for a PC. I had to pay some, but a lot less than normal price.
They have Bluetooth and other stuff.
Did you buy the proline version for $1399? Given my range of cars, it almost seems worth it!
I have the ProLine and didn't pay anywhere near that. I bought it on E-bay, LOL
Came with the BMW package.
