  1. I have worked on car/trucks for quite awhile and used snap on and OTC scanners for a long time not liking them that much they are fine for the big three domestics but when it comes to subis they are quite worthless. And yes on the OTC I bought the Asian package..... Nowadays I work maily on subi's up here in alsaka . I like them own them . I'm very happy bumblebeast is set for now . Here is what I did about a year ago . It was time for a update and I found a Autel Maxidas scanner instead of the usual $3000-3500 this tick in at about $1000. I was skeptical but also very sick and tired getting ripped by OTC ect. So I took the plunge. And no regrets . It scans more on most subis then any other scanner I have worked with . It scasns eurtotrash quite well too . And most important you get more then just chk eng scan . Nowadays you are bound to need that ,at least in the states. The maxidas 709 gives quite the array of scan otion that comes pretty close to oe coverage . That being said . It doesn't do all years airbag scan on subis but in general I'm very happy . Don't expect a free update for you scanner after a year it doesn't seem to work and not enough room on the sd card etc etyc etc. But still very pleased with it . I understand that 1000 is quite a jump from 50-100$ but when you are making money working on cars there comes a point where you can only burn so much time trying to avoid spending money. I hope this throws another bone in the yard to pick from . Thks for all your posts bumblebeast that's more or less how I started my project 92 loyale with 99 2nd gen 2.2 in it DR tranny 15" pugs 1.5" raise in the back and 2010 VW beetle seats in it with the best bunwarmers in the world in it.
  2. you may have the "wrong "rim on the front of the car some older rims will have the caliper knocking with new pads in them . You will see a littler rub line on the inside of rim . Good luck
