XTool D5S Review | ECM/ABS/SRS/TCM scan

XTool D5S is the best multi-system scanner I have tried so far. Some of those I tried had trouble working with the ABS/Airbag module on some tested cars, but D5s did not disappoint even after trying it out on multiple vehicles. And it also comes with 15 service procedures as a bonus.

XTool D5S

10 My Rating

Definitely the best of the 4-system scanners I have tried so far. A multi-system or 4-system scanner is updated from the engine code reader and it let’s you scan the engine, transmission, ABS, and SRS.

With better tools like xTool D5S, you can also get advanced functionality like PDF reports and service procedures like DPF regen or OIL interval reset.

Testing xTool D5S

Absolutely loved this scanner as it comes with easy Wi-Fi updates instead of me having to deal with complicated SD-card updates.

It works flawlessly and offers even 15 service resets.

However, for newer cars with more systems than just Engine, TCM, ABS, and SRS I am suggesting paying extra for a scan tool that can work with all systems, not only these 4.
