Autel Scanner MaxiCheck MX808S, 2026 US Ver. of MaxiCOM MK808S/ MK808Z, Bidirectional 11OS as MX900 MK900 MK900BT, 3000+ Active Test, 28+ Service, OE All System OBDII Diagnostic Tool, FCA Autoauth

Absolutely love my new scanner! Easy to use, well built, and It can perform so many more functions than my basic blue driver scanner, plus some extra testing features. I was able to use this to set the camshaft timing on my truck, and with advanced scanning and live diagnostics found out that I had a wiring issue which was not letting pcm read the sensor. 1000% worth the buy, a mechanic alone would have charged me more than the scanner costs, and I have a solid scanner that is compatible with all my cars!

Just got the Autel MX808S scanner and I’m really happy with it! My buddy had the regular MX808, which was cool, but I needed the EVAP solenoid activation, and the S model does that no problem. It’s way easier to use than those phone apps with a dongle—those can be such a pain. The bidirectional stuff is awesome, lets me test things directly, which is super helpful. Also, the auto-VIN read is a nice touch, saves me some hassle. WiFi for updates, hard-wired for car connection - I purposely wanted that vs bluetooth. IOne year of updated is fine, and the tool will still work after the year. I would only need to update if I purchase a new vehicle which is expected, and acceptable. Btw, the lightning deal made it a ridiculously good bargain. Overall, it’s a solid tool, works great, and I’m stoked with the purchase!

I purchased the Autel MX808S for working on my BMW E46 and it has been a game-changer. The scanner is fast, accurate, and gives me dealer-level diagnostics that save me a ton of time. I really like how easy it is to navigate the menus and perform service functions. What impressed me just as much as the tool was the customer service from Autel US. They reached out promptly, offered helpful support, and even sent me a free accessory to complement the scanner. It’s rare to find both a high-quality product and excellent after-sale service, but Autel provides both. Highly recommend the MX808S to anyone who wants a reliable, professional-level diagnostic scanner at a fair price!

This item is amazing. Exactly what I needed. I was skeptical because of the price but this item is worth it. I’m a major DIY’er. I keep cars until they turn to dust. This unit helped me isolate a defective PCM on my Scion and fix an ABS code on my F-150. I can also (finally) program a key on the Explorer and when the camera comes in I can finally scope the cylinders on my Dad’s van. I am extremely happy with this purchase.

I originally bought the Autel MX808S just to clear a few check engine codes, but it ended up becoming one of my best tools. It does way more than I expected — from scanning every system to resetting service lights, checking live data, and even doing maintenance functions like oil resets and battery registration. The interface is really user-friendly, fast, and updates are easy to install. I’ve used it on multiple vehicles and it’s handled each one smoothly. Honestly, it’s like having a professional shop scanner without paying shop prices. If you work on your own cars or even just want to avoid unnecessary trips to the mechanic, I highly recommend it. Definitely a must-have tool for any DIY or pro.

I know it has taken me a while to even get this registered. It works great on my 2018 Honda Accord Touring.It showed me exactly what I need to replace. The only issue I have had so far is with the Update. I have been unable to get the Update Login to accept any of the logins I had registered with the Autel Website. I am waiting for a response from their support. Hopefully it will not take long to fix.

So I purchased this to work on a couple Mini Coopers, a Dodge Ram 1500 and a Honda Element. I emailed support about Vanos Erase/Relearn on the Mini. There was a sale going and their responses were molasses slow. Eventually they responded saying that it couldn't do it. It was already on its way to me by that point. Spent a couple days going through menus and finding out when options are available. Turns out you can use it to do VANOS re-learns and clear the ECM. Support has no idea what they are doing. Things I think suck about this device. 1. Navigating the windows is a chore for a tablet. 2. The thing comes with no updates installed and there is zero way of making it any faster even on WIFI. 3. There is no ethernet port making the download process slow as molasses. 4. The tablet has limited memory and doesn't come with an SDCARD. 5. The price for updates is ridiculous. 1 year is not enough considering it will take you an entire year to go through all the options and by the time you find out an option is missing or broken it will be too late. Then they will charge you 150 for something you already paid for buying their overpriced tablet. 6. They spam the hell out of Amazon's interface. How many places can you post this thing? Why are there so many? 7. They spam New for 2022 and the thing doesn't use USB-C to charge. It stuck using 2008 USB-OTG. 8. They give you no ability to connect an ethernet adapter or bluetooth. Why should there be another model just for bluetooth. The feature doesn't cost that much. 9. The design is kind of bulky. 10. I have no idea why the process of printing stuff or taking screenshots requires you to go to a menu. We can literally swipe left or right on phones or tablets to take screenshots. 11. I need the ability to hide the vehicles that I don't need and to have each vehicle have its own icon with the the VIN and a screenshot. Then you can save all the PDF files and video in their own folders. 12. On mine the OBD2 plug is too loose. It will fall out of the socket just looking at it. The cable is hard core and thick as hell but the plug part doesn't even have a way to stay connected. It should have some kind of strap just to keep from falling out. 13. Put all the documentation on the device so you don't have to google everything. 14. I feel like a kid with one of those horrible teaching tablets using this interface. It's bad. You can slide left to right on only some pages. 15. Functionally you could get by not purchasing this device and getting a $150 model that has the exact same features just a smaller screen. Charging an extra $500 for a larger screen is dumb. I can buy a whole a$$ tv for the price and have a better menu system with a remote. Hell why don't they make a remote for this? 16. If you are a newby that doesn't like to read and figure things out the do not buy this. Pay someone to borrow theirs or just find someone that bought the higher model and use that. The things are not for people that don't want to be experts. 17. As far as I am concerned there needs to be some regulation on what these Software as a Service devices can post on Amazon. The updates need to be on the device before it ships. I don't want to see anyone being ripped off because they had to pay for updates a year later. I am not spending $150 for bugfixes that should be free anyway. 18. I wasted an entire week looking for something functional. Every single one of these devices claim that there are between 15-35 special functions that can be used but do nothing to tell you what is available. There should be a flow chart or something. 19. This thing cannot help you program body computers on a Dodge Ram. You might as well buy and OBMX+ and use AlphaOBD or buy a programmer interface and use a desktop app. 20. I feel like I spent too much for the device even though it was discounted because it has less features than a current tablet. There should be an HD camera, a microphone. Some way to upload videos to Youtube. A kids tablet can do more than this. It's really slow. 21. Why can't I program anything with this? Where is the oscilloscope functionality? The data is there. 22. Do something about this 1990s web interface. I shouldn't have to back out of so many windows. 23. I ran into some issues where the instructions tell you to turn off the vehicle or turn them back on but it doesn't tell you what its doing and it just spins in circles. It had me thinking I had done something wrong or that I was waiting for something to happen next. Put some lights, animations or prompts to show when its actually doing something. I'm tired. I have worked with automotive tools since I was in elementary school. I do electronics, training and tech support for a living. This isn't my first rodeo with OBD2 or computers and tablets. I expected more refinement. I need easy of use as well as data collection. This doesn't make me want to move up to a higher model it makes me wonder if it's just going to be the same only a bigger screen. I need to be able to see all of my data. Having to go back to another window to create a report is a chore. The WIFI connectivity was also not that great. I have enough WIFI signal to block out my neighbors devices and this thing wouldn't stay connected for nothing. After looking at the other models you should go with the one that gives you the most actual physical features as the software across most of the lower models do not have a camera or a good UI experience if you have to use the thing all the time. Does it have a long battery life, cameras, the ability to send files and take snapshots. More free updates. USB-C. WI-FI & Ethernet to get updates and send files/videos. Does it have the ability to program keys, or to use other features like programming or reading tire sensors? Can it run more live tests? Does it come with vehicle info outside of the scan info? Does it take forever to load? Does it have more memory for faster testing/operation? After having hands on and testing with multiple vehicles you will start to notice a trend.

This scanner is very easy to use. It is also easy to update the software. It is highly compatible for older vehicles. I had previously purchased scanners for a specific vehicle make, but this scanner is VERY diverse. The functions are wide range. The Autel customer service is excellant! You will not be disappointed for purchasing this product.

I bought it to use for Mercedes and it is working fine however when it comes to minors system changes, it doesn’t Like you can’t change the temperature unit from F to C and you can’t change the radio channels frequency from US specs to GCC specs

I have an older JDM car and am handy with tools. Had an older scan tool and now upgraded to this one, wish I had done it sooner, it communicates with all modules in the car and tells you any problems. It can also do coding and most importantly for my case IT CAN ADD SPARE KEYS!. Yes there is a subscription for updates but the tool will work after even if no updates are applied, I verified this on youtube. It can also reset and do services like ABS bleeding and parking brake service mode. It lets me work on the car and save the labor costs. Dealer wanted $734.50 CAD for just a key and programming (insane), locksmith wanted over $350 cash for just key, I left and didn't bother with them. For a bad sensor diagnosis and replacement dealer wanted over $1500 on top (rear blind spot sensor behind bumper). Bypassed all of them and their "services" with this tool. I bought blank key online for $16, had it cut for $20, programmed it and the fob myself with this tool. Scanned car determined right rear sensor lost communication, ordered new sensor for 200. I paid 793 total to fix sensor myself and get a spare programmed key. Dealer would have been $2,234!!!! In this economy I will invest in myself and my own tools instead of paying obnoxious prices to people or businesses.

Great device

Need update and you have to pay again
