Thanks, Carly for sending Jebbrey's Jibberish your product to review. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have found out about the Xtool A30M. Popping one in the Christmas stocking!
My a30m has a different page in the engine live data stream. It allows combine in graph and a couple other choices. What i dont like about it is it only shows one graph unless you combine them o. One graph. I would like to see at least 4 seperate graphs on one page.
$69 cheap one i mean i have one of the cheap elm327 clone or whatever that was like sub $10 but it mostly just does like check engine lights so just engine and trans stuff really
the 30m is a life saver its a awsome device...its very close to the vw rosstech scanning tool that i also have ..... i think its the best bang for buck scanner on the market before you head into sub $800 scanners
The xtool only allows you to view the screen in landscape mode I hope they update the app in the future to allow you to view in portrait as well, cause if your wearing polarized sunglass the screen is black in landscape mode on most phones and tablets
Finally an honest “Carly” review (junk). I also have the Xtool the one that programs keys and remotes. Does the A30m program keys and remotes also? I appreciate your videos 👍
@@JebbreysJibberish Xtool D7 and up will do at least some key programming. D7 also a good value at 239USD, basically A30M functionality ++ on it's own tablet.
Thanks Geoff. NB Not sure if you’re a J or G. My middle name is with a G so I went with that. That was a really helpful review mate. I appreciate these reviews that help fill many of the holes I have in my car knowledge. Would like more Emu hacks too, if you had time.
Great review. I have a Discovery 4 and use the GAP Diagnostics tool at about $800 which looks very similar in functionality to the A30M. My mate with a new Defender has been looking for a cheaper tool but the cheap ones just won't communicate with a Land Rover beyond the generic engine and transmission fault codes, they cant see the other 30 plus systems in the car. I just emailed XTool to ask about Land Rover compatibility. Anyway I really appreciate this review. Oh and I will add that my $800 tool is not campatible with his Defender it also cannot see all the systems as the Defender is way more complex than the Disco. GAP has developed software for the Defender but also over $800.
My Xtool a30m will scan my entire Chevy Cruze GDI turbo in like 3 minutes. Things I don't like about it is you cant take snapshots and you cant download your recorded data onto your desktop computer to save and file it for later viewing. Everything you record stays in the app.The other thing I hate and its not Xtool's fault is that you cant read the screen on most tablets and phones while wearing polarized sunglasses when they are in landscape ' and landscape is the only way xtool will show the data
Absolutely brilliant JJ. Thank you sir. Since you have one, and a big favour, can you see if it supports a Holden Monterey (Jackaroo) U8 MY02 with the 4jx1?
I can’t tell if it supports the diesel because it won’t let me in there due to it not being the right car but it does have early 2000 Holden Jackaroos on the list of manual selection.
