Need a new diagnostic tool

[mncountrydoc]

Hello all me and a few friends share my microscan pro for our personal vehicles which is around 30 of them well now I am looking for something a little better. Almost all domestic with a few Asian and all obd2. What's the first tool I can get into with bi directional capabilities and the ability to graph ignition voltage to see random misfires when no code is set. Hopefully 1k price or close and would rather not have laptop based so that I don't need to purchase that as well thanks

Could prolly find a used Solus Pro for that much...my Snappy guy has one right now actually...only downfall is that you have to use the chips...

I would much rather keep into less money but the snap on guy I know never has anything used for diagnostics

That's a combination scanner and scope then.

1K won't get you something that does both.

How about a scanner then a separate scope does anyone make a handheld scope for the in depth diy person

He's already said he didn't want to buy software and a laptop, so that's out

I'm sure snapoff does but it'll be out of what you're wanting to pay

Vantage Pro. I think they're still in the 1k range used.

Without a scope what for bi directional

Like I said before, either a used solus or vantage pro...if your dealer likes you enoigh i'm sure he can find you one

Solus or solus pro is ypur best bet. But since the new modis ultra came out. The old modis has decreased in value. Ive seen them on my snap-on guys truck for around $1000. A modis will do everything you want.

Just found out the neighbor has a otc genysis but has never used the scope on it and does not know how to looks like I get to learn

I second the notion of picking up a second hand MODIS. excellent scan tool and a quality 4ch scope, with component specific testing, and easier to use than the OTC. I loath the Genysis If its free to use, thats fine. I would never purchase it over the MODIS
