#1: Buying a code reader Author: Razor34, Location: CroydonPosted: Sat Mar 10, 2012 10:14 am ---- Hi,
Before I buy can anyone tell me if the U480 CAN-Bus OBDII OBD2 EOBD Trouble Code Read Diagnose Tester Diagnostic Scanner is worth buying?
I have the EML on yet again so instead of taking it to a garage again I would like to know what it is beforehand. Cost is £20 off ebay.
Thanks

Car is driving me insane with the amount of problems I have had and only had it since July last year...oh well never mind lol - nice looking car though!!!
