Typically when someone is looking for an OBD2 Scan Tool, the ‘Check Engine Light’ is on and they simply want to find out what is wrong and turn it off. The need brings up things like cost, reliability, and handheld or the usb to laptop unit? Through research they think that all scanners are the same. It is true that the handheld types are very similar as most are made for an American company, SPX Industries. However the USB type that connects to your laptop as are almost as varied in capability as there are people.
The variety of USB obd2 scanners at different prices is rather large. A very basic one can be had for £16. However, the more reliable and better engineered ones are more typically £30 to £100.
Rain X is a liquid that is applied to a previously cleaned and dried windscreen. It is easy to apply just use a circular motion, allow it to dry and then buff with a soft cloth in a circular motion until clear.
The dangers of driving in rain come not only from the lack of traction from the tyres, but also from the decreased visibility through the windscreen. Rain X improves wet weather visibility and safety by not only eliminating the small blind spots that the windscreen wipers do not get, but by keeping the side windows clear. The rain quickly disperses off the windscreen. The rain runs off the windscreen really neatly and you use the wipers much less after application. The application will last up to 60 days and helps improve visibility up to 1 second earlier. This can improve the stopping distance by up to 90ft from a 60mph stop.
A well built, easy to operate kit once you get the knack of setting the tire air pressures. The connection to the tyre being screw rather than the clip on type helps. It is quick to inflate, the lighting is excellent, and the screw adapter is secure. The cable reel is on the bottom so you do not have to try and stuff the power cable back in a hole when you’re finished, but it is a tad fiddly. The inflation readings appear to be very accurate, and the pump makes it a quick and easy job to optimise tire air pressures. It is a snap to keep tyre pressures up to the appropriate pressures prior to traveling any major distances.
