Q: How do I know if my Autel scanner is genuine or not? 
A: First and foremost, you should buy an Autel scanner from an authorized dealer. If you buy it from an unknown source, you risk being duped or being sold the wrong product. Every Autel scan tool comes with a serial number. After you purchase the device, you need to register it in order to get free software update/upgrade and as well as warranty. As a result, if you try to register the code reader with Autel and it fails, just know that your device is counterfeit. All-in-all, Autel is a reliable company and having a fake product is next to impossible.

Q: Does the Autel MD808 offer its users with free lifetime updates? 
A: This is where Autel wasn't clear about its product. In the description, it is written that the product comes with free lifetime updates but it is not. Most users have stated that the free software updates are provided for 1 years and from then onwards, you will have to pay for updates and upgrades. The manufacturer should be clear about this so that buyers are not duped into buying the product.

Q: I am looking for a scanner that would let me access the onboard computer so that I am able to adjust the vehicle performance which would maximize my fuel economy. Will this model do this procedure or can you suggest a model that can do this
A: I am looking for a scanner that would let me access the onboard computer so that I am able to adjust the vehicle performance which would maximize my fuel economy. Will this model do this procedure or can you suggest a model that can do this

Q: This MD808Pro would not link up to a new 2019 Toyota Tacoma. I called US support and was told that I would have to wait at least one year for the update to the device that will cover this and other new vehicles. The support person told me that I would purchase a much more expensive reader with a paid subscription to be able to interact with new vehicles. Thanks Autel for not advising this in your advertising for this product. This MD808Pro will be sitting in my cupboard collecting dust for at least one more years.
A10: Yes, that's right. If you buy the most recent car model, then low price scanner like Autel md808 pro will not support. They need time( at least one year) to include that new car model with the scanner. All scanner brands follow that type of tactic. Because they need to write a new program for the latest car model to support the scanner

AUTEL MAXIDIAG MD808 Pro Customer Reviews:

Review 1: Successfully updated firmware using Apple Mac

I was able to update the memory card via Apple Mac using a card reader and their Mac update software. Not the easiest or straight forward process, but it can be done.

Review 2: Good scanner

Purchased this to help diagnose an ABS issue and to clear the trouble code(s). It handled these tasks without issue. The extra 5 feet male to female cable along with the MD808Pro is a plus. It makes me work outside my vehicle.
The ability to see sensors operate in real time and plot them on a graph is invaluable. Before using this tool, updates are a must. You need to create an Autel account so you can update your unit. Once you have an account you can download the “Maxi PC Suite”. This allows you to update your software and Print content off the device.
I’m amazed how well this unit works on my 09 Mercedes Cla 250. A lot of modules displayed after scan all. Love it.

Review 3: Good tool

So far it helped me diagnose a SRS and ABS fault. Happy with this purchase.
Immediately after purchasing the MaxDiag 808 Pro, I created a user account on the Autel website and downloaded the PC software app required for updating the unit. Autel can only support Windows which would remind you the software of Autel is not trustful, but that is fine because most Windows software works like that. Then the MD808 Pro software update completed without any more hitches.

Review 4: Works as expected

This is a very capable scanner for the money. It is easy to use and has a very nice color screen. Used it to diagnose and fix problems on Mercedes, BMW, VW and so on. it detects VIN automatically, and easy to reset engine warning lights. aslo do some basic TPMS on some Japanese cars like Honda, but no TPMS work for Germany car. It’s a downgraded MX808. Considering the price and free update lifetime, great deal!!

 

Review 5: A must have for DIYer like me

Very handy tool. I purchased this to help diagnose an ABS issue and to clear the trouble code(s) when the issue was fixed. The MD808 Protool handled these tasks without issue. The ability to see sensors operate in real time and plot them on a graph is invaluable.
