keep in mind, that today there are 1000s of tools sold, unlike, 10 +years ago. making choices harder, not more easy
vast differences in features sets.... and some are near useless. (code readers, are grossly limited)
key decisions are how much you have to spend. ? (this alone limits choices, as does international shipping, worse)
i recommend a hand held OBD2 full scan tool.
I recommend and INNOVA 3040. (low end choice ) see list below...
they can be had , new or used.
all purchases will be subject to your countries DUTY fee's... which i know zero about.
keep in mind most stores, will not be happy filling out long custom forms...
most EBAY sales show 48 state shipping ONLY , in red letters.
many sellers there EBAY are scalping, charging 3 times more than retail.
i recommend this , because if its easy of use. 1 part, 1 tool, plug it in and scan. easy simple and problems free. (unlike wifi, or blue tooth and USB laptops)
why not JEGS. shows Cambodia. as a ship too address. I buy from them all the time..
here is one tool 3140. ( they make many versions)

Yes. The only Innova tools that offer Live Data functionality are the 3040, 3130, 3140, and 3160 Scan Tools.
if buying a scan tool, this is a key features, so you can watch sensors live.

shows what it can do.... FAQ.... it does lots.
keep in mind, if the transmission is slipping
that the scan tool will show speed sensor, PERFORMANCE codes.
a transmssion shop, knows this.
he : (in a nut shell)
road tests the car, and drivers aggressively to FEEL slip
then disconnects the tcm and shifts manually to see if trans, slips.. (this is covered in FSM book, all this.)
he see that each of the shift lever position, will activate the correct gear show in the FSM and on my main TCM page. (skips 3rd gear) as does TCM skip 3rd gear in TCM limphome mode.
he
does the stall tests. (shows weak engine, or shows, a slipping trans)
then
he does the line pressure tests.(per FSM using his gauges)
all after a full flush (ATF) and new filter, sure. (if AFT was not black and tar like.... dip stick tests, and smell of burnt ATF, he might in fact say, dont do a flush for CAUSE)
the scan tool is just one , part of all this. it's not the "computers know all tell all thing,, nor computers, saying, clutch plate 3 slips)
The scan tool is but one step in a process of steps. (as your pro transmission shop this....)
the G16 transmission is same. (TCM is tiny bit different , it is for sure different because of the extra 45hp engine power, has new shift tables. inside.)
this chapter covers all tests..... this is what your shop would do ,should do....
