In this video I take a closer look at the special function, actuation tests, and live data pids on this scan tool using a modern test vehicle, a 2022 Kia K5. The test vehicle in my previous video featuring the TOPDON Phoenix Lite 2 was a 2006 GMC full size truck. There is a big difference in the amount of overall data pids and bidirectional control between that older vehicle and a brand new car. BIG difference!

After trying this for a few days it quickly became on of my favorite OBD2 diagnostic tools. It is very easy to use, it has all the functionality that I want and need, and it’s price point makes it one of the best values on the entire scan tool market. Not only does it have ALL the functionality, it comes with 2 years of free software and firmware updates, at a price that can not be beat.
