Which Forscan

[Merman]

I am sure this has been discussed to death but I was having trouble finding the answer. I have a 2020 802A and looking for which Forscan tool to buy. Which one is the one to get or which is most popular?

I think there may be a lot of cheaper options out there these days, but I've never had any issues with my OBDLink EX. https://www.obdlink.com/products/obdlink-ex/?ref=forscan

I got the same one as Brian off of Amazon.

Check https://forscan.org/home.html for the supported adapters.

Like mentioned above OBDLink are some of the best, but not the cheapest. If you're an IOS/Android user you might want to consider the MX+ so you can use Forscan Lite if needed to pull codes etc

If you're talking about the sync screen, make sure you update it to the latest version. There was a version with a bug that would use up all the disk space and cause it to crash

Good to know, thanks!

In addition to the adapter question, which version of Forscan enables you to customize settings and reset the TCM? Will the Lite version do it?
