A Toyota master diagnostic technician reviews a very good budget scan tool for Toyota owners and Lexus owners.

In this video I respond to an invitation from a company called Carista to review their OBDII scanner. I normally would recommend you get the cheapest scanner you can find as most of the cheap ones do the same thing. The professional grade scan tools typically are the ones that are capable of doing the work that people look for and they usually cost a lot and don't make financial sense for DIY mechanics or even car owners and enthusiasts.
However this one is different and I was really impressed by it's features. I review the tool and highlight some of the most impressive features.
Highlighted features:
1- Toyota and Lexus customizations. These are settings that you can change to customize your car options. This is typically reserved for the ultra expensive and dealers exclusive Tech stream, however this small inexpensive scanner can do the same thing on models supported.
2- TPMS sensor registration on models supported. This goes without explanation as one visit to the dealership to program a sensor will pay for this scanner!
About the only thing I don't like about the scanner is the monthly subscription but I do understand the company's business model as they offer a lot with this tool.

When I bought my '22 Corolla hatchback, I asked the dealer to enable the all windows down with key fob feature. He said nobody had ever asked for that, but he did it for free. However, he wouldn't disable the seatbelt chime because he said it was a safety issue. So I bought an OBDII ELM327 Bluetooth dongle & signed up for a 7-day free trial of Carista. I made all the changes I wanted & canceled before the free trial expired.

@barackblows1942 3 года назад

My stealer, Advantage River Oaks Toyota in Calumet City, Illinois, wants $150.00 to program my windows to roll down and the moon roof to open using my remote. I told them no thanks. Now I see that you can do it in 5-minutes. What a scam, I hate stealers. I spent over $36k on a new 2021 RAV4 Limited and they’re too cheap to program the windows for me.💩

I have a second set of rims for my 2017 Avalon Limited with non-cloned TPMS sensors, so I need to be able to change ID's with summer and winter tire changeovers. For a number of years now I have successfully used the ATEQ Quickset TPMS ID tool for tire changeovers on my 2009 Accord and 2010 Corolla. The Quickset says that it also covers my 2017 Avalon, but it does not work for me, and repeated conversations with ATEQ customer service was unable to resolve. My Foxwell Elite 510 scan tool with Toyota software was also supposed to support TPMS ID registration, but it does not have that function for my 2017 Avalon. I found the Carista tool and have been using that (paying the monthly fee when I do a tire rim swap) and it does work perfectly for TPMS IDs. I am hoping eventually that Foxwell or ATEQ will resolve the TPMS ID issues for my Avalon, but until then, I have a reliable way to do it with the Carista dongle and app.

@LAactor 3 года назад

Next time save the hassle and get a tpms sensor that clones the existing ID in the factory ones and bam, switch and the car doesn't know any difference.

IMO, the “open window” mode is disabled because of carjacking danger. I myself set my aftermarket alarm to only open the driver door when I press once and all when I press twice fast. If someone is waiting in ambush it gives me a chance.

8:10 That "open windows with long press" was activated on my 4Runner when I bought it, and within a week of owning the car, the windows were rolled down and the sunroof opened in the rain while I sat inside the house eating my breakfast. I was not impressed that just having the keys in my pocket would be enough to activate such a feature. And then there is no way to CLOSE the windows with the remote! You have to go outside in the rain and use the physical key in the door to close everything up again.

@gwilli1754 Год назад

I had used the feature on a consistent basis for my Acura, which came with the feature, and probably the one thing that I miss of the TL. I never came across accidental opening, yikes, that could be a total damage event if the car gets flooded!!! Thanks for sharing, makes sense why Toyota opted out of activating the feature!!!

Thank you for all the excellent videos you have created.

@timothymroberts2949 2 года назад

The auto start/stop feature on select Toyota vehicles is an innovative feature that lets you run more efficiently. It works by stopping your engine while your vehicle is stopped, and it starts things up when you're ready to hit the gas. It's effective at reducing waste related to engine idling, and many drivers enjoy its benefits. In the situation where you don't want auto start/stop to be active, disabling the system is simple. To the left of your steering wheel, you'll see an "Off" button. Simply press that button at any point after you've turned on the engine to disable the auto start/stop feature. This will let you keep your engine on, even during long red lights. You may want it to stay on so that you can maintain a cool climate by constantly running the air conditioner, or you may want your engine to continue to run because you need the power to haul a trailer. Once you've pushed the "Off" button, the system will remain off for the duration of the ignition cycle. At any point, you can reactive it by pressing the button again. When you restart your vehicle, everything will go back to the default setting in which the auto start/stop feature is active. Note that there are certain conditions in which the auto start/stop feature will not engage. This includes when you've set your air conditioner to MAX, you're on a very steep include, you've selected power or snow mode, your steering wheel is turned away from center, your battery only has a low charge, you're in stop-and-go traffic, or your fluids are at high temperatures.

Hello Sir, your videos are very informative. I am planning to purchase Carista after watching this video. My concern is, will it detect the problem on my Toyota Prius V 2013 ( 190,000 miles) that throws overheat sign comes on for few seconds and goes off, after 15 to 20 minutes of driving. To be more precise, ( I think) , the overheat sign stays on during the period when thermostat opens and coolant circulates gushing into the reservoir tank. I recently changed Thermostat ( aftermarket thermostat) and got the coolant flushed at the dealer so that it shouldn't have any air in the cooling system. Could it be that Coolant Temperature sensor is misreading the temperature. I really appreciate your reply. Thank you.

@TheCarCareNut 3 года назад

Hi! Carista can’t view live data which you might need to access to see what’s going on with your Prius. If there are not trouble codes you will need to see what’s happening with the coolant temp reading when the light comes on

@@TheCarCareNut Can you please recommend any other scan tool that reads live data so that I can know if the overheat sign is due to faulty coolant temperature sensor or aftermarket thermostat or blown head gasket in it's initial stage assuming there's no air in the coolant system after driving in this condition for six months ( system might have self burped the air from the coolant system).

Perhaps also suggest Torque App which can be free (trial) or Pro for a small single one off cost (when I purchased it). Works well with toyota and lexus with selected PID option.

I purchased it to save a few $$ for the tpms programming. Had shop install new winter tires and rims with Toyota tpms. The Carista doesn’t pick up the new sensors. Do I have to key in each serial number? If that is the case I wouldn’t know which serial number is for which tire. I messaged Carista via Facebook (don’t have a customer support number) but they haven’t replied.
