DIY diagnostic device for 2014 E250 coupe

[karllap]

Hi, I have recently bought a 2014 E250, it has previously been in an accident (over a year ago) and does have some issues (though I'm not sure if they are from the accident or just poor ownership)

I can't afford a full star system but wondering if the Carsoft machine or similar would do some decent diags, resets and programming if needed?
Appreciate that going to an indy will probably be required but ideally I would like to do some investigations and DIY first to try and cut down with going backwards and forwards, save costs and also be able to help myself in the future.

Thanks

icarsoft mb 2 seems to be the popular choice, gets very good reports, £134.00 on fleabay.

As advised above, the iCarsoft 2 ( not the iCarsoft 11) is pretty useful piece of kit, just make sure that where ever you buy it, that it's an iCarsoft approved seller, and that it will be updated as needed . There are lots of "spurious ) seller's out there, and not to be trusted.

Diags and resets yes, programming no so much.... you'll need STAR for that.
