Impressive - a scanner that does what it says it can do. I'll keep this one. Solved a few issues on my E85 and my wife's E83.Good - very good scanner and first quality product.

So far so good , was able to reset brake pads after annoying light kept coming on even though had new pads all the way around,, so reset front n back and brake fluid level as well,,, now the waiting game to see if warning lights come on,,, as for the moment I highly recommend this product

I am new to Mini Coopers and I was confused when my regular OBD II scanner pulled up zero codes when my Mini had an issue. I couldn't quite figure out from reviews whether this product would make a difference. Thankfully, I bought this scanner, plugged it in and there was a separate MINI menu which pulled several codes. So if you have a Mini and you are unsure whether this will work - YES! THIS WILL PULL CODES FROM YOUR MINI WHEN OTHER SCANNERS WON'T! (I own a 2012 Mini Cooper S Countryman ALL 4)

I needed a code reader for Mini’s and BMW and other European cars and my “Foxwell” reader didn’t have the ability. I found the Ancel BM500 and was pleasantly surprised at how intuitive the menu is. It read and pulled 3 codes quickly. It also has the ability to do the battery reset and tire reset. Don’t let the high return rate deter your purchase as I believe A LOT of people buy it just to do the battery reset, oil reset and/or tire sensor reset and then return it. I highly recommend it if you want a solid, budget friendly reader.I used this on a 2012 Mini Cooper S turbo.

Like that this scanner can work on different manufacturing. For the value for the money and ease of use is well worth the money. Can read all codes and scan tool.

I dont waste my time writing click bait reviews but this product was far, far, far more than I imagined.....It does "normal" OBD stuff but also critically gives specific info for my vehicle type I thought could require some $500-$600 scanner to get (example Mini Footwell Module, an expensive problem if you have it). it also resets batteries, oil change or service intervals snd does a far, far deeper dive into codes than my one generic to all vehicles. It found like another 15 codes that flagged at least once in 10 year old vehicles lifetime but once reset, havent come back in 9 mos. Car drives perfectly, so obviously NBD. Another example? When I replaced by battery rather than pay someone $130 to "reset" things, I found all it resets is date of replacement. Who cares what date unless a warranty claim and thats what paper receipt is for. If battery is bad, its bad. Replace it you dont get home. Simple. Only thing i wish it had was a TPMS reset for tire sensors. But with 10 year old vehicle, its likely a code is a dead battery and only way to fix that is replace the sensor for $25 rather than spending $50 to find out its old. it also gives general OBD scan codes for other vehicles. I saved my buddy $175 by diagnosing his check engine light with more specific"cylinder 6 misfire" preventing mechanic from replacing his MAP sensor which was wrong diagnosis, period. If/when I get different car, I'll buy another one specific to that type as its just sooooo valuable to figure out codes in literally under a minute rather than taking to someone who will charge you $75 to open the hood.

I can see the problem before go to mechanical. It can check BMW and good price.

As an OBD reader it is easy to use. However it does not support BMW special features for the E85 chassis. It was not useful for me so I returned the reader.
